The nervous system is at the root of embodiment. When we expand our capacity for nervous system regulation we have more capacity to inhabit the vessel of our body, drop into present time awareness, and sense the world around us.

In this class we will explore the nervous system and how we can support it into regulation through somatic awareness and herbal medicines. We will discuss the mind body connection, the window of tolerance, polyvagal theory, sensory gating, and herbal allies.

Objectives:

• Gain a deeper understanding of the nervous system and what it’s communicating through the body
• Explore somatic tools for nervous system regulation
• Learn about key herbs that can up or down regulate the nervous system
