As humans, our needs for connectedness and safety run deep. Painful experiences and trauma shape our nervous systems in ways that make it difficult to truly meet those needs. My guest on the podcast helps us navigate the complex terrain of the nervous system. Deb Dana is a clinician, consultant and author of books and programs including the book Anchored: How to Befriend Your Nervous System Using Polyvagal Theory. She is well known for translating Polyvagal Theory into a language and application that is both understandable and accessible. Join us as we explore ways to engage the nervous system for greater wellbeing, safety and connectedness.
