Join Thomas Wurm, Anne Martin, and Cheryl Ilov as we discuss how to navigate and be resilient from traumatic experiences. We explore how martial arts, self-defense, and Feldenkris can be incredibly beneficial. We talk about how we can defeat or lessen PTSD and how western medicine has sometimes done more harm than good.  Learn how to be responsible for your own healing and what your self-talk can do. Learn how to build strength, courage, confidence, and empowerment with martial arts.  Cheryl runs us through three great exercises to allow you to practice and become aware of your posture, mindfulness and focus.   Feldenkrais, is a  highly sophisticated form of neuromuscular re-education.
