Calm is Your Super Power!
Effective Self-Regulation Strategies and Tools to Calm your Nervous System, Decrease Stress, Anxiety and Triggering
Description
The course "Calm is Your Super Power" is designed is to get you started with providing reliable, effective and tangible strategies you can begin to implement and integrate into your own life. With over 12 years of experience and assisting hundred of clients as a pediatric occupational therapist and now serving the adult population in private practice, I've been afforded the wonderful opportunity to teach and assist clients and students integrate these techniques into their own lives to feel more connected into the body, empowered and to breeze through triggers with less chaos and increased ease.
The strategies and methods I'm teaching are highly beneficial in making positive changes in the central nervous system, which allows you to become more calm, centered, empowered and focused. You can learn to re-train your nervous system to get out of fight-or-flight and the Sympathetic Nervous System storm, often created in the body and become a master at emotional regulation. Letting go of stress, anxiety and negative experiences facilitates higher learning and improves social interactions and a heals your brain. You may even meet a new friend along the way or try a new hobby!
You'll receive a plethora of education, methods of longevity, as well as quick go-to tools you can pull from, when feeling stressed or in a highly charged environment. Upon completing the course, you'll be armed with a wide variety of techniques to bridge mind-body-spirit, to move forward and out of the trauma-drama cycles. You no longer need to keep running on the hamster wheel. It's time to jump off and discover Calm is now your Super Power!
