The Adverse Childhood Experiences study revealed how a subset of experiences in our human lives could create an array of challenges, the greater the amount of these "adversities," the greater the chance that our learning, health and relationships would be disrupted. These challenges included events in categories such as abuse, neglect and household dysfunction in early childhood. Professionals in the field of fetal medicine, birth and prenatal and perinatal somatic psychology have identified another set of adverse experiences that occur prenatally, during or after birth. In this pioneering series, you will meet highly trained professionals and parents who want to share their passion with you around models of care, experiences, and wisdom around pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and more. You will hear stories of strength and humility, and a you will look through a lens into the world of families and babies like you have not seen before. Early adverse events create their own set of neurodevelopmental challenges. We can heal them, and we can also prevent them. Come, enjoy the passion and expertise from this talented panel. The transdisciplinary approach invites us to work together for positive change. Our panel includes:
  • May 11: Gianluca Ursini, MD, PhD, The Seeds of Mental Health May Be Planted in Early Life, but Good Gardeners Will Make the Difference
  • May 18: Darcia Narvaez, PhD, The Evolved Nest and Baby ACEs

Every conflict can be seen as a doorway showing us our Inner Child’s unmet needs. The unmet needs of the inner child are codified in impulses and sensations – and they wait for our attention. What happens when we learn to trust our body’s impulses? Our Inner Child, manifest in body-memory, holds a developmental map in his/her hand. Validate the Inner Child’s need, and we are moved powerfully and exhilaratingly forward, towards richer relationships, and a truer expression of Self. In this online talk we will address:
  • Healing is not about fixing – thank Goodness!
  • Healing is a sequential, developmental process.
  • Healing follows a sequence: ‘what comes next?’
  • Your body speaks in impulses – the developmental template inside all of us.
  • ‘But we can’t relive childhood!’ – Inner Child’s Need translated into adult-appropriate nourishment.
  • Interpersonal contact – the here-and-now healer.
  • Sometimes, the therapist/counsellor can be the nourishing, developmental experience.
Starts May 5, 2021 at 7 pm Eastern time. 9 am Sydney time the next day
