Toxic stress, trauma, unsupported intensities, and challenging upbringings can overwhelm our sensitive nervous systems as gifted people, leaving us feeling anxious, overly protective, and/or disconnected from our bodies. Supporting our intensities and being able to hold the fullness of our gifted selves requires (re)integrating and (re)sourcing both the gifted mind + body.

This course will provide you with gifted-specific insights and practical tools for reconnecting your mind-body, dealing with toxic stress + trauma, and feeling more grounded, regulated, and confident to channel your gifted intensities in authentic ways. ​

​

The Program

​This will be a 4-week online course (four 90-minute sessions) led by Kelly Pryde. We will meet on the Zoom.us platform in a safe, compassionate space. Sessions will include thematic discussions, experiential exercises, 10 mindfulness-based tools for self-resourcing, and connection with gifted peers.

Themes 

• Resourcing strategies for supporting overexcitabilities and the healing of gifted shame + trauma
