Simple Strategies for Managing Physical and Emotional Overwhelm
Given the erupting war in the Middle East, I felt called to share a one-day course on War Trauma I recently conducted for Ukranian civilians and military for free.
During a war, people often suffer from physical and emotional overwhelm. In this course, I share simple strategies to manage both on a daily basis. These strategies can be used by therapists for helping others and by civilians and military personnel for self-help.
The course includes demonstrations with a Ukrainian civilian and a member of the armed forces.
