Befriending Your Nervous System
One-Day Workshop - Understanding Regulation, Stress and Trauma Responses
​
What if the way you feel isn’t something to fix… but something to gently understand?
Many of us live in bodies that feel wired, tired, overwhelmed, disconnected or shut down.
We push through stress, manage anxiety as best we can, or feel frustrated by patterns we can’t seem to shift.
​
This one-day workshop is an invitation to pause and begin a different kind of relationship with yourself. We will integrate psychoeducation, experiential learning around self-regulation and co-regulation, inviting you to understand how your nervous system works, and how it shapes your everyday experiences. We will learn to listen inward, with curiosity and compassion.
​
(Note: For any therapists or coaches attending, as this blends education and experience, it is valid for up to 5 hours of self-declared CPD).
Who is this for?
This day may be especially supportive if you:
​​
-
Feel anxious, overwhelmed, stressed or burnt out
-
Live with chronic pain or fatigue in the body
-
Notice patterns like overthinking, people-pleasing, or disconnecting

What we’ll explore together:
​

Understanding your nervous system in a simple, relatable way

Recognising patterns of activation, protection, and shutdown – fight, flight, fawn and freeze

The role of regulation and co-regulation in wellbeing
-
Practical ways to support your system back to balance
A day to slow down, connect and just be...
Throughout the day, there will be guided practices, space for reflection, and opportunities to gently connect with yourself at your own pace.
​
Nestled in nature, the workshop is in a unique treehouse. We will also weave in moments of rest and nourishment, including lunch, and the option to experience a sauna and a refreshing dip in the stream - supporting the body to regulate naturally.
​
Places are limited to support a safe and spacious group experience.
