(HS Truitt 150689 2026) Building Everyday Resilience Somatic Micro-Practices for a Calmer, Stronger Nervous System
Tracking # 20-1365074
Course overview
Resilience isn't just a mindset - it's a neurobiological process that can be built and strengthened over time. When trauma and chronic stress reshape the brain for survival, clients often get stuck in reactivity, hypervigilance, and fatigue. But with the right tools, those same neural pathways can be rewired for healing, calm and growth. In this training, Dr. Kate Truitt translates cutting-edge neuroscience into simple, body-based strategies you can use immediately in therapy. You'll discover how to: Explain how stress rewires the brain through stress-induced structural plasticity (SISP) Activate pathways of safety and connection using mindful touch, bilateral movement, paced breathing, and sensory orientation Work with the brain's protective responses to restore flexibility and foster lasting resilience If you've ever wanted to help clients move from surviving to truly thriving, this session will give you the science-based roadmap. You'll walk away with a toolkit of somatic micro-practices designed to calm the nervous system, strengthen regulation, and build resilience that lasts.
