Introduction to Polyvagal Parenting: Our autonomic nervous system as parents and children

trauma-informed practice

Session 1 of a series facilitated by Polyvagal Institute. Expert trainer and clinician Dafna Lender presents practical applications for building safety and connection with children. In this session we will explore everyday examples of safety and connection (ventral), dysregulation (sympathetic/dorsal) and repair (return to ventral). We will learn how our nervous system influences our children and vice versa, and discuss ways to get yourself into a calm and open state (ventral) so you can influence your child in a positive way.
