This 3-week course offers mindfulness practitioners a deeper understanding of how the brain and autonomic nervous system function in stress, trauma, and wellbeing, teaches specific skills that can be used to facilitate personal recovery from stress and trauma, and offers guidance on how to share these skills with others. This course is taught by certified CRM® teachers Nicole Carlson and Laura Smallwood and offered through East Coast Mindfulness.
