From the Vagus to the Village
Healing is an individual journey that happens in Community
Service Description
This interactive workshop takes us on a journey from the vagus to the village, exploring Polyvagal Theory through an African-centered lens— the science of the nervous system’s role in safety, connection, and resistance. Participants will examine how ancestral wisdom, communal healing traditions, and cultural resistance and hope practices align with and expand Polyvagal Theory. We will explore practical applications for mental health, community care, and personal well-being, integrating storytelling, music, rhythm, and movement as regulatory practices.
