What You’ll Learn
Each week, we’ll delve into topics that uncover the intricate connections between the immune and nervous systems, including:
Structure of the Immune and Nervous Systems: Understand the foundational components that link these systems, laying the groundwork for holistic therapeutic approaches.
The Inflammatory Reflex: Explore how the vagus nerve plays a critical role in regulating inflammation and how to leverage this knowledge in therapy.
The Bi-Directional Relationship Between Stress and Immunity: Examine how ongoing stress, complex PTSD, and childhood trauma inflammation contribute to immune dysregulation and psychosomatic conditions.
Impact of Stress and Trauma on the Immune System: Learn how trauma influences conditions such as autoimmune diseases and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), impacting mental health and cognition.
MCAS and Mental Health: Gain insights into how MCAS can manifest in mental health symptoms, from anxiety to brain fog, and the steps to address it.
Methylation and Genetics: Get an overview of how methylation processes affect mental health and how genetic predispositions can create vulnerabilities in immune and nervous system function.
By the end of this six-week journey, you’ll:
2. Gain confidence in addressing MCAS and its implications for mental health and cognition.
4. Empower your clients to heal not just their minds but their bodies, too, by addressing immune and nervous system dysfunction holistically.
1. Have a clear understanding of how trauma impacts the immune system AND strategies to help clients reset their immune systems.
3. Be equipped with tools to incorporate knowledge of the vagus nerve and inflammatory reflex into therapeutic practices.
