Healing Trauma and the Nervous System- Ancient Wisdom for Modern Resilience

Stress and struggle leave their mark on both body and mind, sometimes in ways we can’t easily undo. Just as knots form in the body, impressions and tensions accumulate in the mind. While we can’t change the past, the Bhagavad-gita teaches that we can shape our future—what we choose to cultivate now carries us forward.
In this one-hour workshop, we’ll explore how philosophical and spiritual wisdom can help us rise above the tangles of trauma and anxiety. Through practical insights, open discussion, and guidance from the Gita’s philosophy, we’ll look at how to build resilience—not only by steadying the nervous system, but by exploring the deeper self beyond the changing body and mind.
