PVI Community Event: Nervous System Self Care with Kristen Toth

During this session, Kristen will invite and guide us in a practice of gentle somatic tools and embodied awareness that supports nervous system regulation and resilience from the body up—not to bypass what’s difficult, but to support ourselves in being more present and connected so we can feel capable of handling whatever life is asking us to hold. You’ll be encouraged to follow your body’s own wisdom about what feels right, and supported in approaching this type of self-care with radical respect for your own nervous system, exactly as it is.

I felt a sense of calm and aliveness at the start, and that itself was a wonder. By the end i was aware of my body feeling safe and yet i was not frightened of the safety. This is a miracle. I looked around my space and for the fist time ever felt its safety rather than just knowing it safe. I have so much gratitude Kristen. Earler i started to cry as i cradled my neck.

I actually found this hard to do so I stopped as you recommended. The light touch and slowness was really irritating to me. Some words were making me feel uncomfortable too. I guess we are all very different.
