Research suggests that group drumming can help reduce stress, boost immune function, improve concentration, ease pain, and lift mood through multi-sensory engagement and rhythmic activity that draws attention inward and outward at the same time. Studies have shown drumming improves concentration and relaxation, taps into instinctive rhythm patterns in the brain, and naturally shifts focus away from daily worries, making it both a therapeutic break and a joyful communal activity.🕑: 10:00 AM - 11:15 AMWhy Are They Doing That? (cont.)Host: Joanie CalemInfo: "Why Are They Doing That? The connection between trauma, sensory processing and behavior." Trauma has a direct effect on our sensory system, and to cope with sensory overload, we often develop habits that end up causing unpredictable challenges.  This workshop provides details about our eight sensory systems and how sensory overload or shutdown can affect our daily life.  Recognizing the interplay between these systems, trauma and the ways we are trying to find balance, grounding and healing can provide us with a wider array of self-help tools.🕑: 10:00 AM - 11:15 AMBeyond Survival: Reimagining Your Sense of Caregiving (cont.)
