June 2, 3, 4 of 2025: Neurobiology of Connection in French and English

Lot et Garonne, Southwest France

Transformational Retreat June 2, 3, 4 of 2025.

Maison du Coeur Calme, Cancon, Southwest France

In this 3-day depth transformational retreat, we will host a space for deep exploration of The Neurobiology of Connection and the foundation model of Autonomics in French and English.

Gabriel will teach the neurobiology of connection, scaffolded on his forthcoming book, The Neurobiology of Connection and its associated Foundation Model of Autonomics. Based on 30 years of research, crowd-sourced with more than 15,000 participants in 50 countries, co-created with input from more than 100 advisors in 25 disciplines of wellbeing across 24 cultures (many of them Indigenous), including a dozen of the world’s leading experts in connection and wellbeing, the Foundation Model unites the cutting-edges of autonomic physiology, neurochemistry, and ancestral lifeways into a living map of embodied autonomic states. Fluency in this map teaches humans how to locate themselves in the foundation layer of physiology that governs visceral state, sense of self, emotions, cognitions, the way we perceive the world around us, and the behavioral repertoires available to us. It teaches us how to transform from living in defensive states (fight, flight, appease, freeze, shutdown), which are necessarily pathogenic, into connection states that are salugenic (e.g., health-creating.)

Training will be simultaneously translated into French with an autonomically-trained French translator. Aimed toward a French speaking audience, hopefully timed with publication of The Neurobiology of Connection in French.
