This workshop will show you how to help children reorganise and rebalance their autonomic nervous system at the biological/survival level after being overwhelmed following a traumatic or stressful event(s). Maggie will teach participants how to use games, play activities and art, integrated with the fundamentals and techniques of Somatic Experiencing®, to facilitate the release and completion of thwarted survival responses, re-establish balance, orienting and protective/defensive impulses and to elicit the capacity for healthy social engagement.

WORKSHOP FEATURES:• Ages and stages of development from a somatic perspective • Repair of early trauma and attachment to facilitate self-regulation

through social engagement• Activities to promote grounding, sensory awareness and tracking

skills with children and teens• Integrating principles of SE with art activities to promote safety,

• Working with sexual trauma, medical trauma and grief• Teach games and activities used in post-disaster settings • Working with individual children and groups

The material is useful for professionals who wish to integrate the core concepts of SE when working with children, as well as those wishing to deepen their understanding of inner child work with adults.

An Integrative Approach to the Prevention and Resolution of Trauma

Somatic Experiencing® developed by Peter A. Levine Ph.D., is the naturalistic approach to the healing, resolution and prevention of trauma. Supported by cutting-edge neuroscience, this revolutionary method is based upon the realisation that human beings have an innate ability, if given the right support, to help overcome and heal the symptoms of PTSD, chronic stress and other trauma-related ailments. Somatic Experiencing® is a profoundly effective method of gently addressing trauma to help an individual return to a state of balance, relaxation and wholeness in the aftermath of violence, fear, rage, helplessness, loss and other extreme experiences.

TOPICS COVERED: Includes some of the basic elements of the SE approach to trauma resolution:

• The basic neurobiological underpinnings of traumatic activation• How and why the body-memory both holds and releases ‘the story’• Courting the instinctual brain: how to facilitate the release of habituated

flight/flight/freeze patterns using somatically-based interventions• Beginning SE practical skills of tracking sensations, images and pendulation

Composed of lecture, demonstration and experiential exercises, this workshop will teach you practical skills to enhance your practice.

This seminar is designed for professionals who wish to enhance their skills when working with traumatised adults and children. It is appropriate for mental and physical health professionals, social workers, body-workers, teachers, medical personnel, clergy and other allied professions in the health and healing field.
