Watching Deb work with a volunteer for a demo is so helpful not only because she is a master at this work but because the viewer gets to hear from both her and Stephen what they believe has happened in the demo at regular intervals. This reinforces the learning beautifully.

This course included dialogue recordings of Dr. Porges with Somatic Experiencing founder Peter Levine, Deb Dana, and many practitioners in a training/chat format. The 10 downloadable pdfs on theory and practical application is testimony to the desire of PVI and individuals within the organization to share the information widely and thoughtfully in the context of training. Thank you!
