The Tao Te Ching: Mastering Fight, Flight, And Freeze Responses
Did you know our nervous system has body-wide receptors constantly scanning our external environment for dangers and triggering our fear response below our mind’s awareness? This can lead to automatic fight, flight, or freeze reactions, which our brain then looks to justify. Yet often there was no legitimate cause, just a primitive fear reaction interrupting our feelings of freedom and ease in the moment. When a tiger is chasing us, it’s warranted—but so often in our lives, the danger is not justified and incapacitates us at the most inopportune times.
In this talk, Susan gives an easy explanation of our survival mechanism, how it can overtake us, and useful ways we can recognize, diffuse and restore ourselves to calm. This is an experiential talk/program.
Don’t Blame the Messenger: When Our Children Illuminate Old Wounds
Even before they can talk, our children are constantly expressing themselves through their behaviour, their bodies, their emotions. When parents find some aspect of their child’s expression challenging, it’s often a message the child is unconsciously mirroring—an aspect that the parent needs to understand about themselves, but is unaware of. Exploring the hidden message behind the challenging aspect opens up new awareness and healing for the parent, and frees the child from having to continue the mirroring. The outcome is greater harmony and love between parent and child!
In this talk, Susan reveals how children’s expressions, even the challenging ones, can reconnect us with alienated aspects of ourselves. Decoding their message helps us rediscover lost strengths, fostering personal wholeness and mutual appreciation within the family.
"Susan's class gives me a specific time to sit quietly and be with myself. This work has helped me calm myself and has helped me in many aspects of my life. I always leave our sessions with words of wisdom and a sense of calm."
"I attended your Present Child workshop a few years ago. I was truly struggling with being a mom to my son. I cannot put in words the thoughts I was having at times until fortunately I was able to attend your workshop. It was life changing for me. After the workshop, I was able to tell my husband what I was feeling and what kind of help I would need. Susan, you are like an angel walking on this earth for me. You truly changed my life in the moment a few years ago."
"I feel much gratitude for the teachings Susan offers. I find the sessions assist me to connect more deeply with myself. Susan skillfully creates a safe, neutral, healing space where 'all' are welcome."
"Susan's classes have been a game changer for me. I love how she offers a safe space to share (or not share) what is showing up for me in life that week. It leaves me feeling a greater sense of connection with myself and the other members of this little community she has created. I can't speak highly enough about Susan and this community and the positive shifts I have had in my life since beginning."
"Susan's classes have helped me to stay aligned and centered. There is a lot going on in the world and in our lives and the teachings are a good reminder to focus on what matters the most in life. I feel more gratitude in my heart, more clarity in my mind and more connection with my soul after these sessions. Susan's wisdom and energy is one of a kind."
"I joined Susan's class a year ago and have so appreciated the benefit of her weekly sessions in my life. From the outset, Susan's calm and caring manner and words reassured me that I could benefit from this practice. I now truly look forward to these sessions; they've been such a support to me in these turbulent times."
