The Autonomic Spectrum Lectures: Healing Distress States (Spring 2024)
This is a graduate-level lecture series in the applications of Polyvagal Theory, and Hearth Science’s research that extends it, into the context of developmental and clinical work with individual patients and groups in the healing arts. This course is intentionally trans-disciplinary.
In the spring lecture series (part two of this yearlong series), Gabriel will teach a connection phenomenological approach to the clinical applications of Polyvagal Theory and its extension through Hearth Science research (Beyond Polyvagal Theory), based on a thorough grounding in autonomic neuro-anatomy, and the conceptual underpinnings of Polyvagal Theory, e.g., neuroception, interoception, Jacksonian dissolution, pure Autonomic states, spectrum of hybridity, and insights from our research. Our focus in the spring lecture series is on the remediation of distress states.
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR: Integrative physicians, naturopathic physicians, psychologists, nurses, trauma therapists, addiction therapists, practitioners of mindbody medicine, mental health counselors, marriage and family therapists, licensed professional clinical counselors, bodyworkers, wellness coaches, life coaches, interested laypeople (non-professionals).

How this is gonna work...
This lecture series is being created Winter/Spring of 2024 in tandem with a seminar that Gabriel is teaching, and the production of his next book: The Autonomic Spectum: Mapping the Neural Landscapes of Wellbeing and Disease. Beginning the week of September 11, 2023, and each succeeding week, you will receive a link to view that week's lecture. Lectures will be filmed live in our Northern California film studio in 4K, and then be produced before being sent to you. You will maintain lifetime access to the full course archive.
Although this is in no way mandated, you are HIGHLY encouraged to enroll in this course with a group of colleagues and set up a regular peer discussion section. These ideas want to be discussed, and you will find this course more powerful and immediately useful if you are grappling with and implementing these ideas.
In conformity with our post-capitalist ethics, we are offering this series on a sliding scale to enable to the broadest range of access within the healing arts. The series will present our most cutting-edge research and pedaogigical insight.
