This workshop meets on Saturday & Sunday, April 28th & 29th, 2018, 10am-6:30pm.
Somatic Experiencing is a body-oriented approach to the healing of trauma and other stress disorders. In this workshop, Dr. Levine, the founder of Somatic Experiencing, demonstrates how Somatic Experiencing addresses trauma, seeing it as the consequence of trapped survival energy.
The Somatic Experiencing approach gently facilitates the release of thwarted survival energy bound in the body, thus addressing the root cause of trauma symptoms. Through a combination of theoretical explanation, demonstrations, and body-oriented exercises, participants begin to develop a deep and intrinsic body awareness that helps to draw them into the vibrant experience of life-energy, flow, contact with the eternal now, and wholeness.
