Week 1 & 2: Nervous System 101 and Hygiene Practices

In these foundational weeks, we will dive into understanding the nervous system and its role in trauma. We'll explore how trauma affects the body and mind, and introduce essential practices for regulating your nervous system. You'll gain insights into managing stress, grounding techniques, and self-care practices to establish a solid foundation for healing.


Week 3: Attachment & Somatic Attachment 

In this transformative week, we will explore the profound impact of attachment on our lives and dive into the fascinating world of somatic attachment. Our relationships and early attachment experiences significantly shape how we relate to ourselves and others. By understanding and healing these patterns, we can cultivate healthier, more fulfilling connections.

Week 4: Interoception/Noticing

Interoception is the ability to sense and understand the sensations and signals within your body. These weeks will focus on enhancing your interoceptive awareness, enabling you to recognize and respond to your body's signals more effectively. Through guided exercises and practices, you'll develop a deeper connection with your body and cultivate self-awareness.

Week 5 & 6: Introduction to Parts Work

Our exploration of parts work will help you understand the various aspects of your inner self and how they may have been impacted by trauma. We'll delve into techniques and tools for identifying and engaging with different parts of yourself, fostering integration, and facilitating healing. These weeks will empower you to embrace your wholeness and build resilience.

Week 7 & 8: Somatics/Embodiment Practices

Embodiment is a powerful tool for healing trauma, as it involves reconnecting with your body and releasing stored tension and trauma. Through somatic practices, movement exercises, and breathwork, you'll learn how to safely explore and release trauma from your body. These weeks will support you in reclaiming a sense of safety and grounding within your physical being.

Week 9 & 10: Emotional Intelligence

Building emotional intelligence is crucial for trauma survivors to navigate their emotions and develop healthy coping strategies. We will explore emotions, their functions, and how they relate to trauma. You'll learn practical techniques for emotional regulation, resilience, and self-compassion. These weeks will empower you to cultivate a healthy relationship with your emotions.

Week 11 & 12: Gut/Brain Axis

The gut-brain axis refers to the bidirectional communication between the brain and the gut. We'll explore the fascinating connection between the two and how trauma can impact gut health. You'll gain insights into the role of nutrition, gut microbiome, and mind-body practices in supporting your overall well-being. These weeks will equip you with strategies to optimize your gut-brain health.

12 Weeks of Healing is a comprehensive experience designed to empower you in reclaiming your well-being and creating lasting change. Through personalized 1:1 coaching calls, rich educational content, and integrative practices, you will embark on a path of healing, growth, and self-discovery.

She welcomed all topics of conversation, from childhood experiences to current relationship roadblocks, and helped me connect all things to presence in body and honoring my intuition. In such a short amount of time Lauren has helped me move mountains. I have started feeding myself, finding alternatives to shutting down when my emotions are elevated, and have found a type of movement that feels good and doesn’t trigger fantasies of weight loss. At the heart of her program is connection, and I cannot recommend this course enough.
