Nurture Your Nervous System, Michelle Major

Nurture Your Nervous System

Join Michelle for an experiential journey from understanding your nervous system to embodiment.

We live in a world saturated with information about trauma, the nervous system, and somatic approaches. But knowing about your nervous system is not the same as experiencing it. 

During this evidence-based workshop, we will integrate the principles from Somatic Experiencing®, Polyvagal Theory and neuroscience to develop a deeper, compassionate and more embodied relationship with yourself.  There will be an invitation to slow down, tune in and track what your nervous system is communicating.

Nurturing our nervous system isn't simply about understanding why we respond the way we do. It is also about expanding our capacity for safety, connection, joy, co-regulation, emotional attunement and community.

You might find yourself asking:

• Why do I understand my patterns but still struggle to change them?

• Why can traditional talking approaches sometimes leave me feeling stuck?

• Why do mindfulness or meditation feel difficult when I'm overwhelmed?

• Why do I overthink, doubt myself or constantly second-guess my decisions?

• Why do I procrastinate or struggle to find motivation?

• Why do anxiety and fear sometimes take over?

• Why is it so difficult to establish healthy boundaries and say no?

• Why don't positive affirmations always seem to work?

• What is happening in my nervous system when I people-please, freeze, fight, flee or shut down?

During the workshop, you will:

• GAIN a deeper understanding of the brain, vagus nerve and survival stress responses.

• LEARN how to tune into, track and respond to your own nervous system.

• DISCOVER practical ways to cultivate healthier boundaries, limits and self-awareness.

• UNDERSTAND emotional triggers through a compassionate, unshaming lens.

• EXPERIENCE simple embodied practices that can support greater regulation, connection and nervous system wellbeing.
