Saturday, November 19, 2022
The following program offered by the Minnesota Society of Clinical Hypnosis has been submitted for ASCH approved CEUs, but has not yet been approved.
To work on self-development, trauma recovery, or even benefit from therapy, clients need to be able to access your body’s natural capacity to be safe. Polyvagal Theory, developed by Stephen Porges, offers a roadmap to lead clients out of their adaptive survival responses into the autonomically regulated state of safety. In this interactive workshop, Angie will teach, demonstrate, and invite practice opportunities merging Hypnotherapy with Polyvagal Theory.
