Finding Balance – Somatic Movement for Nervous System Regulation

In this workshop Laura will use the somatic practice of Body-Mind Centering® to explore how we can regulate our nervous system by balancing out the parasympathetic (rest and digest) and sympathetic (activating) branches of our autonomic nervous system. Although our ability to relax – which we will stimulate – is key, our aim in everyday life is to be able to effortlessly switch between parasympathetic (our baseline) and sympathetic as and when needed, without our sympathetic response unnecessarily escalating to – or becoming stuck in – fight or flight. It’s a delicate dance, which we will practise by using gentle movements, body-based visualisations and intuitive breathing practices that are suitable for all.
