In this joyful and restorative conversation, Ce sits down with somatic therapist and Life Balance founder, Layne Burkette, to talk about what happens when life moves faster than our ability to keep up—and how to gently find our way back to our safe center. Layne shares her approach to healing through Somatic Skills and demonstrates some quick and easy somatic neuro-hacks for soothing your weary parenting nervous system. Sometimes the bravest thing we can do is soften, listen inward, and rediscover our safety within.

From Ce Eshelman:

Are you searching for a community of parents who will get you; who offer an attentive ear and open arms in the worst of times; who give you a standing ovation for the monumentally big "small steps" forward you make with your child? It is so painful to walk the jagged trail of this parenting journey alone and no one is ever alone in the Love Matters Parenting Society Therapeutic Parent Program. You will feel seen, understood, and actually deeply cared for. We know it as "love." The Society is a virtual program for parents of children who experienced trauma and others who support them or work with them professionally. You don't have to wait a minute longer. We are right here waiting for YOU!
