Join author and YouTuber Anna Runkle, best known as The Crappy Childhood Fairy, at this uplifting and intimate, full-day workshop for adults working to heal the wounds of trauma from childhood.
After growing up in a family riddled by addiction (and the neglect, poverty and violence that so often go with it), Anna tried 30 years ago to find help in conventional therapy, but like many people with Childhood PTSD, talking about what had happened to her made her feel mentally and emotionally overwhelmed, panicked and unable to function.
As she details in her 2024 book Re-Regulated, these were classic signs of neurologlcal dysregulation, the core symptom of Complex PTSD, which can develop as a result of chronic, ongoing exposure to intense stress. Experts did not recognize this at the time, and Anna had no choice but to find her own way to heal. She stumbled on two simple techniques anyone can use to re-regulated their nervous system, feel better, and start changing their lives the same day. Today has taught this method to over a million people around the world, including many clinical profesionals who find her simple methods and common sense approach to be helpful for themselves and for their clients and patients.
In this rare Oslo appearance, Anna will teach you her nt-level strategies for noticing and healing dysregulation so you can calm intense emotions and focus your mind quickly, connect more fully with the people you want in your life, and change the trauma-driven behaviors that have held you back. The workshop will include discussion, small-group work, re-regulation exercises (including Anna's Daily Practice) and plenty of time for Q&A.
With more than a million subscribers across YouTube and social media platforms, Anna is the author of Re-Regulated: Set Your Life Free from Childhood PTSD and the Trauma-Driven Behaviors That Keep You Stuck (Hay House, 2024) and her soon-to-be released Connectability: Heal the Hidden Ways You Isolate, Find Your People, and Feel (At Last) Like You Belong (Hay House, October 7, 2025).
