Building Everyday Resilience: Somatic Micro-Practices for a Calmer, Stronger Nervous System
Resilience is not only a psychological concept. It is a neurobiological capacity you can develop and strengthen over time.
When trauma and chronic stress shape the brain around survival, you may see clients become stuck in reactivity, hypervigilance, and exhaustion. With targeted support, those same neural systems can be guided toward regulation, safety, and adaptive growth.
In this training, Dr. Kate Truitt translates current neuroscience into practical, body-based approaches you can apply directly in your clinical work.
You will explore how to:
Describe how stress reshapes the brain through stress-induced structural plasticity (SISP)
Support pathways of safety and connection using mindful touch, bilateral movement, paced breathing, and sensory orientation
Work with protective survival responses to restore flexibility and support long-term resilience
