Instructor: Josh Collins
Description: This class will focus on the dysregulation of the brain, body, and nervous system from addiction and co-occurring issues. After some education on the brain drawing from Koob and Volkow (neuroscience about addiction), attachment theory, and some polyvagal theory, the focus will be on incorporating somatic practices (including mindfulness) into both individual and group treatment. The purpose of this class is to give attendees a new lens through which to understand and treat the people they work with. A significant focus will be on utilizing grounding skills, breathwork, and meditation. The role of nutrition and connection with others as part of the healing process will be covered.
