‘Dissociation is the essence of trauma’ Bessel van der Kolk
It is not always simple being in a body. The sense of inhabiting the whole of the space bounded by the skin is not a given, our body maps are constantly shifting. The goal of this workshop is to understand what happens when we dissociate and to use TRE to explore and enhance our embodiment.
We will pay attention to how we ground and how we can come into relationship with our whole body. We will explore meditative awareness and active engagement of the body through TRE. Dissociation can be very hard to spot in ourselves and in others. We will cover neurobiology of the freeze response, the polyvagal theory of Stephen Porges and stress induced analgesia.
TRE Supervision Days
The goal of supervision days is to help you deepen into your practice and understanding of TRE. They are open to anyone who has attended a 3 day TRE Level 1 course or has a strong TRE self practice.
Each day will be a mix of personal practice of TRE, lectures on associated theory, discussion of your own responses to TRE and observing and supporting others through the TRE process.
Each day is a stand alone workshop, so you can attend any single day.
Attending one supervision day can count as one personal supervision session (to be agreed with your supervisor) towards your TRE Certified Provider accreditation.
