The focus of the workshop is on applying Polyvagal Theory when working with clients to enhance the coping skills they are being taught. When clients normalize their nervous system response, learn a greater understanding of their response, and apply skills to shift their states back to one of connection, their stories will change. The change in their story will open more internal resources to reach their desired goals. This program will provide an overview of the three states of the nervous system and how they are related to each other and the biology of the human being. Participants will be provided with a sample of how to map a nervous system and develop skills for each state. Experiential learning will be incorporated to leave participants with a felt sense of how the theory can shift us out of a state and change our story. Being able to manage emotions is indicative of success in recovery and applying skills with a deeper understanding will create improved outcomes.
