Essential Oils, Polyvagal Theory, and Resilience: Harnessing the Power of Scent for Emotional Regulation
Aromatherapy has strong potential as a complementary therapy to help with your trauma healing journey. Choosing our essential oils through the lens of Polyvagal Theory can help to bring us back to a place where we feel calm and connected.
In this workshop, we will explore:
- An introduction to the Polyvagal Theory
- How we can use this theory to choose beneficial essential oils
- What all this means for building resilience and emotional regulation
- A somatic practice that can be used to create a sense of embodiment and more!
