In one violent or traumatic moment the world can become unpredictable, dangerous and frightening. From natural disasters to mass killings, what should you do when traumatic events happen in your life in the blink of an eye? When stress or trauma occurs, our bodies try to protect us from harm long after the situation is over.  How do I cope with stress? What is PTSD? Please join the Whole Mind Institute for a FREE Workshop as we learn how to cope with stress and traumatic events that may affect our lives in devastating ways.
