1st Class: How Trauma Impacts Your Neurological & Nervous System
A Class by Karen Robinson (MSW, ACSW, LCSW, CCTP-II)
About Class
🕒 2 hours – Foundational Session
Welcome to our first and foundational session of the series—a powerful exploration of how trauma reorganizes the nervous system and what that means for your daily life.
Many of us are walking through the world in survival mode—stuck in patterns of hyper-alertness, exhaustion, or feeling shut down and disconnected. This session is where we begin to understand why, and most importantly, how we can begin to shift.
Together, we’ll dive into:
✨ How trauma literally reshapes your brain and nervous system
✨ Understanding survival responses: fight, flight, freeze, and fawn
✨ What nervous system dysregulation looks and feels like in real life
✨ Simple, gentle tools to begin calming and re-regulating your system
This is not about pushing or fixing—it’s about reconnecting. You’ll be guided through breathwork, mindful movement, and grounding practices that you can carry into your everyday life to support healing at the nervous system level.
Whether you’re just starting your journey or deep in the work, this session will lay the foundation for real, sustainable change. You deserve a body and mind that feel safe, steady, and whole—and this is where we begin.
I can’t wait to be with you in this space. 💛
