Autism, Trauma and the Vagus Nerve

$20.00

What happens when the world feels fundamentally unsafe, whether it is too loud, too fast, or too much? For all of us, the vagus nerve plays a crucial role in the processing of social and sensory input. Both autism and trauma can complicate this further, layering distress upon difference. This session gently explores the intersection of autism, trauma, and the body’s relational wiring. How can we support nervous systems that need something different from the world? Join Sarah Peyton for a session grounded in neuroscience, resonance, and the celebration of diverse relational rhythms.

What To Expect

Each monthly 90-minute presentation offers a survey of the latest neuroscience research and Sarah’s unique synthesis of that information through a resonant healing lens. This year’s multi-dimensional exploration of relationship and healing supports us to see ourselves and our brains with compassion and understanding.

These are primarily learning and neuroscience content webinars, including a small number of actionable insights and healing process work. If you are seeking individualized healing and practice opportunities, please see Sarah’s upcoming courses here

Please Note:

  • Your tuition payment is non-refundable (but it is transferable).
  • This course will be recorded for those who want to learn asynchronously for some or all sessions.
  • This work is not therapy and is not a substitute for therapy. If you have a sense that you would be destabilized by yourself or others speaking about difficult events, then this course may not be for you. While we hope that the processes and information that we share can be of use in your journey, we do not have the resources to support extreme psychological difficulties.
