Choosing Freedom and Joy After Trauma: Mary Firestone and Mirjam Paninski in Conversation

Mary Firestone survived the unthinkable. In 2018 she lived through the Montecito mudslide that dropped 200 million gallons of rainfall in 15 minutes, washing away her home. Trapped alone in her bathroom while pregnant, not sure if her husband and four-year-old son were still alive, she wasn’t thinking that her trauma was a gift in disguise. Yet, as she began her journey to healing, this is exactly what she discovered.

In her book, Trusting the Dawn, Firestone draws from both her own real-life experiences and her background in clinical psychology to offer a radical, integrative handbook for not only healing from trauma but awakening to even more joy and meaning because of your experiences. Stories of triumphant survival and interviews with experts bring to life an extensive resource guide and a holistic toolkit filled with a wide variety of pathways to healing―from movement therapies like yoga, to aromatherapy and flower essences, to traditional talk therapy and support groups, to pharmacology and Chinese medicine, to mystical healing methods, and much more.

Central to Firestone’s teachings is the idea that your trauma, in whatever form it slayed you, can become an initiation into a fuller, more illuminated, and more joyful life. Trusting the Dawn is a call to action to see that you are more complex, multi-dimensional, connected, and powerful, not in spite of what you’ve been through, but because of what you’ve endured.

Mary Firestone is a graduate of Princeton University and has an MA in clinical psychology from Pepperdine University. Her own transformative epiphanies led her, along with her sister Lucy, to create their company Firestone Sisters Inc. in 2012, with the aim of providing others with healing and growth opportunities. She's been featured in Goop, Well+Good, and Forbes.

Connecting With Self and Others: Nancy Sokol Green and Dawson Church in Conversation

Nancy Sokol Green is a former classroom teacher, trainer of teachers, and author of Connection Mode. She developed Brain Highways, an innovative educational program used in many schools throughout the United States. The exercises used in the program rewire the brain to live in “connection mode,” which fosters curiosity, focus and compassion. Over 20,000 children and adults have gone through the Brain Highways program since 1999.

Nancy's website (https://www.brainhighways.com/) has many free videos and an online screening that shows us how to get into connection mode.

She and Dawson share about:

• Nancy's background
• Brain development
• Adults with "compensating with behaviors"
• Examples of these compensations are:
  • Rocking back and forth in your chair
  • Tapping on your finger, the chair, the floor
  • Excessive humming
  • Worry about tags on your clothing
  • Muttering or talking under your breath
  • Feeling everything acutely, like the pressure of the tags on your clothing
  • Texture of food drives people crazy
  • Can't make eye contact
  • Eyes move around or they tilt their head when they’re reading
• EFT tapping is one way to bring people back into connection mode
• Tapping is both replenishing and resolving 
• Ways of encouraging 3 years old to tap, different ways for teens
