Including First Aid for the Amygdala
A morning workshop full of useful co-regulation practices and theory
For: Teachers, Therapists, Physicians, Somatic Practitioners, Yoga Teachers, Coaches
Co-regulation is a profound human birthright — yet for many of us, the neurological pathways for mutual regulation never formed fully in early childhood. As practitioners, we can often help clients learn embodied relating skills and regulation at the nervous system level. Our capacity for co-regulation matters, for ourselves, for those we work with, and for all our relationships.
We will work directly with four key skills for embodied relating and co-regulation. New to this workshop is First Aid for the Amygdala — a set of practices for interrupting the compulsive brain loops that kick in when we get triggered. Practical, teachable, and immediately useful in the room with clients and willing friends!
All of this work draws from interpersonal neurobiology and established somatic traditions including Somatic Experiencing and Bodynamics.
Beth Dennison is a master somatic psychotherapist who has spent decades at the intersection of body, relationship, and nervous system. She brings both clinical depth and genuine warmth to this work.
