SUMMARY:2/16 Trauma-Informed Contemplative Practices Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Are mindfulness meditation and yoga safe for those who’ve experienced trauma? \nThey can be\, and you can learn how to practice in a trauma-sensitive way.   \nThis half-day workshop will cover principles of trauma-informed meditation and yoga. Designed for yoga and mindfulness teachers\, mental-health professionals\, and anyone interested in the topic\, the workshop will explore both the benefits and pitfalls of meditation and yoga for those experiencing symptoms of traumatic stress.  \nWhy Trauma-Informed Meditation and Yoga?\nFrom college campuses to psychotherapy offices\, meditation and yoga have become increasingly mainstream practices. At the same time\, trauma remains a fact of life: the majority of us will experience a traumatic event in our lifetime\, and up to 20 percent of those who do will develop posttraumatic stress. This means that anywhere folks are practicing meditation and yoga\, someone in the room is likely to be struggling with trauma. \nAt first glance\, folks may make a natural association: trauma creates stress\, and yoga and meditation are proven tools for reducing it. But the reality is not so simple: people who’ve experienced trauma often need specific interventions to help make practices safe and effective\, and that’s what we’ll be covering in this workshop.  \nIn our time together\, we’ll cover the role of attention\, arousal\, dissociation\, social context + accessibility\, and interpersonal support in trauma-informed meditation and yoga. We’ll also speak to the importance of empowerment-based language\, resourcing and working through triggers\, the art of assisting\, holding-space\, boundaries\, self-care\, and rest. Embodiment practices and experiential exercises will be integrated throughout the training\, and no yoga certification is required. The training is open to all\, and we look forward to supporting you.  \nSchedule Overview:  \n\nOpening Circle\, Trauma-Informed Yoga Class\, Introductions \nTrauma-Informed: A Philosophy + Skillset vs. A Checklist \nThe Nervous System+ Window of Tolerance: Finding Attunement in the Language of the Body/ Resilience as a Physiological Practice \nTrauma-Informed Contemplative Practices\nTrauma Sensitive Meditation: Experiential Practice \nGroup Work/Case Scenarios/Journaling/Questions\n\n  \nWorkshop Info\n\nSaturday\, February 16th\n1:00 – 6:00 pm\n$250\n\n  \n \n  \nAbout the Facilitators:\nDavid Treleaven\, PhD\, is a writer\, educator\, and trauma professional whose work focuses on the intersection of trauma\, mindfulness\, and social justice.
