Ready to learn more about the mind-and-body connection in safety and threat situations?
Tune in to this week's Throwback Thursday episode as Stephen W. Porges, Ph.D, shares his time and expertise to talk about the Polyvagal Theory, a theory that emphasizes the importance of the physiological state in the expression of behavioral, mental, and health problems related to a traumatic experience.
He discusses the mind-and-body connection that can often be seen in situations of safety and threat. The body actually has cues for different kinds of situations. He also shares tools for self-regulation in times of stress and anxiety and how to better understand the effects of trauma on the human body. It is a journey to self-awareness and re-embodiment.
