Description

Polyvagal theory has wide-ranging applications relating to the power of safety. While safety is vital to healing, it can be ironically difficult to find in healthcare, both for patients and providers. The speakers are experienced clinicians who work in acute care and outpatient settings and will demonstrate applications of the principles of Polyvagal Theory in everyday practice.
