Description
Have you ever smiled when your heart wanted to scream? Or said yes while your body whispered no? How have we twisted ourselves to stay close to love, even when it harmed us? Fawning is the survival song we learn to sing when love feels conditional. This session will look at the dance between appeasement and attachment, through the lens of the vagus nerve and its role in shaping our relational responses. What does your body remember about how to stay close? And what becomes possible when we can rewrite that script? We meet our strategies with tenderness—not to fix them, but to understand and appreciate their roots. Join Sarah Peyton and Jaya Manske for an inquiry into fawning, nervous system intelligence, and the longings underneath compliance.

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.
