Wired for Connection: Co-Regulation, Interdependence, Nervous System Wisdom

This two-part workshop explores the science and practice of co-regulation and interdependence through the lens of the nervous system.

In Part One, we’ll unpack how our bodies lead in connection and how we instinctively attune, protect, or withdraw based on internal states. Through psychoeducation and gentle embodiment exercises, participants will gain tools to recognize their own regulation patterns and cues.

Together, we’ll hold space for the truth that while self-awareness matters, we regulate best in connection. Blending neuroscience, relational insight, and body-based practices to support grounded leadership, relational attunement, and compassionate interdependence.

Part Two will be offered on Thursday, January 22, 2025 from 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm. While participation in each session is not mandatory, it is greatly encouraged to gain the full benefit of the series.
