The biology of trauma – small molecules, big impacts
When we experience stressful or traumatic events, our bodies play a big role in how we react and recover. From our genes to our hormones, and even our microbiome, a lot of really small biology has a really big impact in how we feel. In this webinar, we’ll dive into:
- Trauma’s impact on your whole body (not just your mind)
- Why your DNA affects your sensitivity to stress
- How our hormones help balance the stress response and how stress can unbalance your hormones
- What your immune system does to help (and sometime hinder) you after trauma
- What your gut microbiome brings to your resilience (a team on your side)
If you can't attend the webinar live, please register to receive the recording, which will be available to watch for one month afterward.
This training is part of a 'Brain Science for Wellbeing' webinar series, brought to you by the University of the Sunshine Coast's Thompson Institute.
