Description
Mapping What Lives Within is a three-session online workshop designed to support participants in developing a lived, embodied understanding of how their nervous systems respond to safety, stress, and activation.
Over three 2-hour sessions, participants explore the Window of Tolerance as a framework for understanding how regulation and dysregulation manifest in the body, emotions, thinking, relationships, and daily life.
Rather than offering a set of quick tools or surface-level coping strategies, this workshop invites you to slow down and engage with your nervous system with curiosity and compassion. With us, you will explore:
- How your nervous system moves between states of regulation, hypoarousal (e.g., shutdown or collapse), and hyperarousal (e.g., agitation or flood).
- The physical, emotional, cognitive, relational, and somatic patterns that emerge when you are triggered.
- The internal and external resources that support grounding, regulation, and resilience.
Through reflective mapping exercises, psychoeducation, somatic practices, and guided discovery, participants gain clarity and self-awareness, increasing their capacity to notice early signs of activation and respond with care rather than judgment.
This workshop focuses on understanding how you function rather than “fixing” or suppressing responses, offering a compassionate, person-centred framework to make sense of your experience and increase your agency in responding to life’s challenges.
Who This Workshop Is For
This workshop is for individuals who:
- Want to deepen their nervous system awareness rather than rely solely on coping techniques.
- Are curious about understanding their triggers, reactions, and patterns rather than avoiding them.
- Desire a compassionate, structured, and reflective space to explore their inner experience.
- Seek clarity about how their nervous system responds in relationships, stress, and daily challenges.
No specialized background or previous training is required.
What You’ll Explore
Participants will engage in:
- An accessible introduction to the Window of Tolerance and its practical meaning
- Guided exercises to understand hypoarousal and hyperarousal
- Mapping work in five dimensions: body, emotions, thoughts, spirit, and relationships
- Somatic practices that support embodied reflection and regulation
- Time for reflection, journaling, and integration between sessions
Why This Workshop Is Different
Rather than teaching surface-level strategies, this workshop supports you in understanding the architecture of your nervous system responses, including:
- The triggers that move you out of regulation
- The patterns your system uses to protect you
- The resources that support grounding and recovery
This is not about suppressing reactions — it’s about making sense of your inner experience with curiosity, clarity, and compassion.

This course is especially supportive for women experiencing stress, burnout, emotional fatigue, life transitions, and feeling overwhelmed. It’s particularly relevant for women in midlife, where hormonal changes, life pressures, and accumulated stress can make emotional regulation harder, but it is open and valuable for all women, at any stage of life.
Whether you’re seeking closure, reconnection, or simply a place to land and keep growing, this immersive workshop offers the tools, support, and community to continue your healing journey with purpose and presence.
