3 Week Hypervigilant Heart Workshop Series

Participant Consent, Disclaimer, and Agreement

Workshop Title: The Hypervigilant Heart Workshop Series
Duration: 1 Hour, 3 weeks
Format: Educational workshop

Purpose of This Workshop

A 3-week workshop series to explore relational anxiety, obsessions, and compulsions, and how to build greater relational security through small, hard-earned, incremental daily actions. Rooted in nervous system awareness, mindfulness, and trauma-informed behavior change, this series is designed to help participants relate from a more grounded, values-aligned self, rather than from the voice of anxiety.

Different from a therapy group or a processing group, this is an educational space for learning, self-reflection, and community connection. Participants are encouraged to bring their learning back to their own therapy.

This workshop is not therapy, not a substitute for therapy, and not clinical treatment of any kind.

What to Expect

• Psychoeducation about relational anxiety, obsessions, compulsions, nervous system responses, mindfulness, and behavior change.

• Guided reflection exercises.

• Educational discussion and skills practice.
