PEACE.
It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work.
It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.

WHAT IS SRT?
Self-Regulation Training (SRT) is an efficient, practical and naturalistic way of healing the effects of stress and trauma. Created by Dr. Regalena Melrose, it is an approach greatly influenced by the Somatic Experiencing trauma-healing approach of Dr. Peter Levine.
SRT is a gentle approach that brings the power of co-regulation and somatic tools to enable the body to naturally heal and reverse the effects of stress, anxiety and trauma, by supporting the body to release over-activation.
By combining elements of stress and trauma with ones’ strengths and resources, a new more complete experience is created, thus generating new and more powerful neural pathways in the brain. This in turn, allows for new and a greater repertoire of emotional and behavioural choices (Dr. Regalena Melrose).
Through SRT, one gains skills to self-regulate one’s nervous system and the ability to show up in day to day life as one’s “best self”.
