*Our wishes are to bring more light to the importance of self-care and a supportive community. NURTURING RESILIENCE through education, self-awareness and compassionate practices that support the nervous system.

*NOTE: This is not meant to be a replacement for professional care, it is supplemental to radical self-care. Please reach out to your doctor or call 911 if you or anyone is in harms way.

• We ask that you join us with KINDNESS and CURIOSITY.
  This is meant to be a SAFE and SUPPORTIVE space for thriving. An environment of Non-Violent Communication and personal growth. No judgments, perceptions, or assumptions.
• Speak from your own experiences and not from those not present. What happens in the group ... stays in the group. Be kind.
• We feel that "re-hashing" traumatic events is not helpful in the context of this group to the sufferer nor to the listeners. Sincere emotions, fears, and struggles can be shared without a "re-living" of traumatic events. We choose the benefits of concentrating on the recovery aspects and excitement for the openness and benefits of neuroscience healing. A community in Building Resilience and a sense of internal ease.

No one can do it for us, but we can't do it alone. ~ Dr. Peter Levine
