Upcoming Editions
TRAUMA EDITION
- Recordings available now
Research shows that substance abuse, suicide, chronic disease, depression, and both being the victim and perpetrator of violent crime and sexual abuse are all predicted by trauma. Untreated trauma diminishes our ability to establish and maintain healthy interpersonal relationships and these attachment ruptures interfere with our wellbeing and resilience. But trauma can be addressed, and when it is, our ability to form the lasting, meaningful, healthy relationships that are so critical to our sense of security is restored. The Trauma Edition explores how we understand trauma, its impact on our lives and cultures, and the interventions designed to address it.
Imagination Edition
- January 12th - 14th 2022
Imagination is a tool that, for better or worse, lets us see ourselves on a path not yet written – or to rewrite one what we believed to be unchangeable. We know that the ability to imagine and reimagine is crucial to processing trauma, but accessing imagination is not always a simple task. Therapeutic interventions that center imagination ask us to reconceptualize the past, future, and our internal world, breaking down the barriers that prevent us from seeing new possibilities and paths. Where we were stuck, our imagination, leveraged in a therapeutic setting, has the capacity to liberate. The Imagination Edition considers the role of imagination in our lives and how it can be accessed.
Connection Edition
- April 11th - 13th 2022
Connection, and its absence, is an incredibly powerful force that shapes our world in profound ways. When we experience disharmony in our relationships, mismatches where communication breaks down, we repair through synchrony to restore connection.
When those incongruencies go unrepaired, it impairs our ability to have the depth of honesty we need for a fulfilled life.
The Connection Edition will consider the role connection plays in human development and how and why we must repair connection after a rupture.

In 1994, Professor Stephen Porges proposed the Polyvagal Theory, a theory that links the evolution of the mammalian autonomic nervous system to social behavior and emphasizes the importance of the physiological state in the expression of behavioral problems and psychiatric disorders.
