What happens in the vagus nerve does not just stay in the vagus nerve! It creates a cascade of body sensations that, when noticed and respected, can help us move into deep regulation. Learning more about the nervous system and the Polyvagal Theory helps clinicians no matter what therapeutic modality they use. We know the nervous system, specifically the autonomic nervous system, is the foundation for the feelings, behaviors, and thoughts. The stories we tell ourselves about our emotions are usually derived from the nervous system experience. When we can slow down, connect, co-regulate, and self-regulate, our reactive system will also slow. This training will integrate and apply research from neuroscience and offer core concepts and practical, skills-based applications.
