Calm in Action: Nervous System Relaxation Techniques Workshop for Survivors

April 22, 2026 6:00 pm
Virtual Event

Designed for intimate partner violence survivors and those supporting them, this 90-minute workshop offers practical tools to calm the nervous system and support the body’s natural relaxation response.

Participants who attend the workshop can:

  • Learn ways to soothe and calm the nervous system.
  • Practice four techniques that involve touch, breath, and focused relaxation to access the ‘rest and digest’ part of our nervous system.
  •  Experience the different energetic results of each practice and learn what works best for them.
  •  Use the resources provided to explore self-regulation.

*Please contact ldougherty@medchi.org if you need assistance in signing up.
