Dr. Arielle Schwartz
Expand your self-care toolkit with vagal toning practices to call back your life force — so you can uplift your body, mind, and spirit as you open space for trust, inner peace, and the embodiment of your full potential.
Has your body or your mind ever been triggered into past trauma by an event in the present moment?
Or perhaps you’ve experienced a moment where you don’t know why you feel unsettled — but it seems difficult to bring yourself back into a feeling of peace and centeredness.
Although your mind may search for the answer, it’s your body that remembers — and holds the key to shifting from distress or pain into groundedness, according to clinical psychologist Arielle Schwartz, PhD, founder of Resilience Informed Therapy.
Trauma, whether significant or subtle, changes you on a deep physiological level, embedding defense strategies meant to protect you, says Arielle. But, what served a purpose in the past limits your freedom now. The nervous system gets stuck on high alert, walling you off from your own inner guidance.
If this feels familiar, you are not alone. Unresolved trauma is an epidemic affecting all areas of life. But true healing is possible! Freedom from the past lives in the present moment.
After 20 years specializing in healing the body-mind connection, especially PTSD, chronic pain, and dissociation, clinical psychologist and author Arielle Schwartz, PhD, has created a step-by-step program using breath, movement, and mindfulness to finally rewire your nervous system’s trauma responses.
Her integrative approach to vagal toning is scientifically supported to:
- Discharge old trauma energy stored in the body
- Restore healthy nervous system regulation
- Resolve dissociated parts of yourself
- Reconnect you to inner wholeness
Over 12 modules of on-demand sessions, you will be guided through potent practices to call back your life force — opening space for trust, inner peace, and embodiment of your full potential.
During this experiential course, you’ll:
- Recognize your unique survival adaptations and defense strategies
- Pendulate safely between resourced and distressed states
- Unburden stored trauma energy through movement and breath
- Integrate fragmented parts of yourself using internal family systems tools
- Relate in healthy ways while maintaining self-sovereignty
- Awaken your body’s spiritual centers and subtle energy
- Chart your profound journey of trauma recovery and transformation
The Journey From Surviving to Thriving
The wounds of trauma run deep in the mind, body, and spirit. Without the proper support, many of us find ourselves reacting to daily life through the lens of past harm — instead of from our innate wholeness.
Dr. Schwartz designed her breakthrough vagal toning methodology as a gentle but direct path to finally healing complex trauma at its roots.
Her integrative approach works with:
- Mind: Blending neuroscience, mindfulness, cognitive reframing, and parts mediation to create new neural pathways
- Body: Using therapeutic yoga, somatic tracking, rhythmic movement and fascia work to discharge stored traumatic energy and come home to your body
- Spirit: Through loving connection to all of who you are — awakening your true vibrant essence
The entire 12-module immersion follows four overarching phases:
1) Recognizing Your Survival Patterns You’ll develop awareness around the ways trauma shaped your psychology and nervous system functioning. From here, you can begin reconditioning new responses.
2) Safely Discharging Stored Trauma Equipped with core regulation skills, you’ll slowly discharge old traumatic energy through gentle somatic breath and movement practices. This releases trauma’s grip, realigning your nervous system.
3) Attending to Trauma-Related Dissociation Explore the relationship between your nervous system and your internal family system. You’ll explore how self-compassion combined with vagal toning practices is an essential key to healing. This helps you come home to yourself in a predictable manner that’s restorative to body and mind.
4) Embodying Your Integrated Self The final phase focuses on presence, spiritual awakening, and embodying your authentic wholeness. You’ll feel renewed trust, joy, vitality, and connection to your inner wisdom.
Through her proven vagal toning methodology and over 20 years combined experience, Dr. Schwartz's program guides you on a journey to:
- Rewire your nervous system’s trauma responses
- Restore regulation — physically, mentally, and emotionally
- Resolve dissociation and integrate fragmented self-parts
- Relate from wholeness instead of wounding
- Awaken spiritual dimensions of your authentic being
- Expand capacity for embodiment, passion, and purpose
The hours you invest will ripple through every area of your life — allowing you to heal deeply, from the inside out.
