February – June 2025: Foundations of Trauma Informed Embodiment explores the building blocks of how we, as mammals, sense and engage with our environment in a body-based way. Using low impact somatics, we traverse the regulatory sequence of presencing and sensing, orienting to our environment, mobilizing for and taking action, making connection with the environment and discharging the energy we’ve mobilized. When we encode experiences as trauma, we develop patterns of rigidity and chaos along this continuum of embodiment. These stages underlie how we regulate our emotions, thoughts, moods and social interactions and map our responses to stress and trauma triggers.

Join T. Aisha Edwards, LMHC, somatic trauma therapist and founder of Radical Rest, in this monthly practice call to repattern our reflexive habits in the way we move through our embodied world. Together, we’ll cultivate increased bodily awareness, empowerment and a felt sense of calm.
