Description

This workshop offers a safe place to explore a basic skill we hope our clients will develop as we work with them towards healing after trauma. As we are learning about the client’s problems and challenges, triggers and safe places, we can model the noticing and naming emotions as they emerge. This is as a somatic, interoception tool to support the regulation of the vagal system.

CPD

Objectives

  1. Differentiate their body’s unique responses to emotional stimuli.
  2. Employ reflective questions to facilitate the meeting of a person and their body.
  3. Formulate a simplified practice to integrate one’s current practices with this somatic tool.

Outline

  • Participants will notice and explore the emergence of emotions in the body.  
  • Calm is not the endpoint of this inward journey.  
  • Small moments of feeling safe enough to notice what is emerging in the body is a good beginning. 
  • Countertransference is hugely helpful for a clinician as a sensory tool in exploring what is happening for the client/ supervisee. 
  • Our practice of interoception in our own lives, and in session is modelling the value of emotions as a source of key information about and reconnection pathways to the self.
