Building Hope and Healing in Uncertain Times: Understanding Our Body’s Reaction to Trauma
Building Hope and Healing in Uncertain Times: Understanding Our Body’s Reaction to Trauma
March 17 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
The physical body holds trauma within it. Understanding one’s own pattern as it reacts to trauma can be liberating, as well as therapeutic. Become familiar with the trauma patterns of Victim, Bully, Bystander or Savior to gain important insights about how to reduce the impacts of trauma on the body.
