| Summary |
Because trauma affects the body's physiology, and because traumatic memories are often stored somatically, leaders in the field are increasingly insisting that trauma treatment must incorporate the body. This workshop will introduce trauma-sensitive yoga as a treatment for trauma used at the Trauma Center of Brookline, Massachusetts and described by the authors of "Overcoming Trauma through Yoga". In this two-day training, clinicians will learn yoga techniques that can be introduced into a typical one-to-one therapy or small group session. We will present a range of simple practices from seated breathing to some gentle bending and twisting that will give the clinician or healthcare provider a new set of tools to address some of the most fundamental and persistent symptoms of PTSD such as feeling totally overwhelmed by sensation, disembodied, dissociated, powerless and more. The Training Team will also provide clinicians and other providers with some self-care techniques, recognizing that the work of being with severely traumatized clients on the path to healing is extremely challenging and requires special attention to one's own health and well-being |
