Do you work with sexual trauma and abuse? Would you like to help your clients to connect more deeply to their body as a pathway to healing?
Worksohp Details
In this experiential introductory workshop, you’ll learn how the practice of Conscious Connected Breathing can be used to help clients move beyond the mind and safely navigate their felt experience to find deeper levels of healing, integration and empowerment.
You’ll experience your own powerful guided breathwork journey and will come away with a breath practice you can immediately use for yourself and your clients.
The impacts of sexual trauma and abuse on a person’s life can be devastating and challenging to resolve. Sometimes in the road to healing words alone are not enough – a client may have a good understanding of their experience and what they need to address but still the feel trapped by the trauma held in their body and mind.
Working with the breath and body awareness, you’ll discover how this powerful practice can be used to:
- Get relaxed and grounded as a foundation for deeper healing
- Access emotions and experiences held in the body in a way that feels safe
- Integrate deeply held trauma to discover a more whole and embodied sense of self
- Transform subconscious patterns of thought and behaviour into new life affirming perspectives
- Access powerful healing states that are ‘beyond words’
This workshop is experiential in nature and you will have the opportunity to experience the breath practice for yourself with a 30-minute guided session. For this session please have somewhere comfortable to sit or lie down, with cushions/pillows and a blanket so you can really allow yourself to relax and get the most from the session.
