Polyvagal Theory in Action

$129.99 Standard

In this deeply polarized and uncertain world, we’re bombarded with cues of danger that cause us either to react in anger and fear or to retreat in despair. Unchecked, these habitual responses are what can lead many to get stuck and seek therapy. Fortunately, our nervous system has a pathway to regulation, and the ability to come home to safety is accessible to us—if only we can find our way. In this session, we’ll explore how to help clients find their way to safety and experiment with practices that support individual and communal well-being. You’ll discover how to:

  • Use the “glimmer practice” tool to help clients find predicable and unpredictable micro-moments in their lives in which they can access regulation
  • Use images, sounds, scents, touch, and movements to safely explore survival states
  • Get beneath a client’s symptoms to listen to the story the nervous system is telling, which can reveal how we can work to reshape it
  • Use the “state creates story” practice to safely take clients through regulated and dysregulated states in order to reshape our narrative of safety and survival

Here's What You'll Learn


  • How to use micro-moments of regulation in session to enhance a client’s capacity for connection and safety in their lives
  • Practices that support nervous system regulation
  • How to analyze a client’s cognitive narrative through looking at emergent properties of their autonomic states
  • The impact of physiological state to psychological story
  • The story of three states in practice
  • Employ an autonomic landscape technique to safely explore states of regulation, activation, and collapse
  • The limits of research on the autonomic nervous system in psychotherapy

Everything You're Getting


  • More than 1 hour of video content
  • CE information to come
  • Handouts and resources
