Life Through A Polyvagal Lens | Deb Dana, LCSW ~ ATTMind 94

Our guest for this episode of the podcast is Deb Dana, LSCW and she is on the show to tell us all about Polyvagal theory and the explanatory power it has for how and why we are the way we are in the world and with each other in  a psychological, neurobiological, sociological, but also practical way. Polyvagal theory is easily one of the most valuable things I have learned about in my life and I am very excited to share it with you. Don't know what Polyvagal theory is? don't worry. Deb Dana takes us in and through a working understanding of the theory while explaining how it applies to relationships, mental health and trauma, therapy, safety and danger, the neurobiology of survival, and even into contemporary American politics. ---- Head to http://bit.ly/ATTMind94 for video, complete show notes, and relevant links.
