4 Session Webinar – Healing Trauma with the Power of Breath

What if you had a tool that blended easily with your preferred therapeutic approach and initiated a greater sense of safety, connection and long-term healing for your trauma client?

Trauma, or the implicit impact of overwhelming physical, psychological or societal atrocities, is rampant in our world. Whether as a result of the confusing and complex times we live in or as a result of our personal history, treating trauma individually and collectively has never been more imperative.; and, historically, is incredibly difficult to do.

What if there was a trauma treatment technique that adapted to almost every client and was naturally self-regulating? With recent research breakthroughs in neuroscience, developmental psychology and interpersonal neurobiology, we finally have a much greater empirical and experiential understanding of just how people heal and overcome the residues of psychophysiological trauma.

According to Bessel van der Kolk in his recent book, “The Body Keeps the Score”, There are three fundamental avenues with which you can work with people who suffer from various forms of trauma and PTSD, 1) Talk therapy (top-down) 2) Medications and/or other brain-influencing technologies and 3) Somatic (body) therapy (bottom-up).

We know a combination of these is required; but more and more evidence is supporting that this third approach, working with a person’s body in such a way that viscerally contradicts the erratic messages of PTSD within a safe therapeutic container, often has the most long-term beneficial results.

Conscious Breathing, I believe, is one of the most effective and accessible tools that as a focal point of these types of somatic therapies builds on the benefits of mindfulness in supporting the essential brain changes necessary for integration and sustained affective-somatic regulation. As an added benefit, conscious breathing can become a powerful part of your self-care, help you to become a more attuned practitioner, and learn to enjoy your work more!

This 4-part webinar series will introduce you to the most important aspects of how conscious breathing can be used to heal trauma and PTSD through these five key areas: Awareness, Practice and Regulation, Integration and Connection.
