Join Tracy Busse in this six-week course for soul companions to learn about the core elements of Polyvagal Theory and Ignatian Prayer. You will learn strategies for integrating the two approaches while operating from a trauma-informed lens.

Each session will include an experiential component, teaching, discussion, and strategies to use when walking alongside others.

The goal of integrating these approaches is to offer individuals trauma-informed strategies to encounter God’s love while experiencing deeper intimacy with God, self, and others.

Tracy is a great teacher. She explained things simply and completely. She led us in several contemplative exercises to help us find our friendship place with God. She also allowed plenty of time for questions. I liked being able to hear other people's questions, too, because it broadened my perspective on how people engage in their own helping ministries.
