Polyvagal Theory & Trauma - Irene Lyon

Irene Lyon, MSc, is a nervous system specialist and somatic neuroplasticity expert. She teaches people around the world how to work with the nervous system to transform trauma, heal body and mind, and live full, creative lives. To date, her online programs have reached thousands of people in over 60 countries. This session will explore how traumatic experiences get 'trapped' in the nervous system, triggering negative emotions and unwanted behaviours long after the event has taken place, and how a polyvagal approach can offer a powerful solution.
