PSYC-3214: Somatic Awareness: Engaging the Body

This course is about building awareness of the sensations in the body and the experiences of the senses as they guide thinking, feeling, social cues, and the expression of emotions. Students will explore the polyvagal theory, interoception, cultural learning, and the felt sense of complex relationships we have with basic needs, social engagement, trauma, movement, tolerance, stress, judgment and fear in the body and develop a deeper understanding of the blocks to awareness and connection in relationship.
