This course completely changed how I understand stress, trauma, and the nervous system—both in myself and in my students. The material was clear, compassionate, and deeply practical.

I’ve taken many CEU courses, but this one truly stands out. The blend of neuroscience, trauma literacy, and yogic principles felt thoughtful and accessible, not overwhelming or clinical. Everything was explained in a way that made immediate sense for teaching and personal practice. I finished the course feeling empowered, grounded, and more aware.
