Witness Peter A. Levine, PhD work in real time to strategize solutions for where generational patterns may be stuck.
We invite you to a rare one-on-one Somatic Experiencing® (SE™) session demonstration with internationally renowned trauma expert Peter A. Levine, PhD, developer of SE™, a naturalistic and neurobiological approach to healing trauma.
During this demonstration session, Dr. Levine will lead us in exploring how we may be influenced by circumstances that our ancestors experienced during their lifetimes. These influences may be beyond our conscious awareness - we may have no knowledge of our ancestors. Through awareness of our unconscious connection, we can approach the complexities of our family line and childhood trauma with reverence to heal the Self.
As we explore in real-time together, you will witness that even with a lineage of trauma, connecting to great ancestral resources and vitality, known and unknown, can support us and our clients on the path to wellness.
Learning from observation, practice, and discussion is an integral way to understand bottom-up somatic-based healing, no matter what level. Please join us for this wonderful opportunity to dive deeper into the understanding of SE and Dr. Levine's work in the field, including Q&A.
OBJECTIVES:
Analyze a somatic-based trauma healing session with the developer himself.
Demonstrate how to bring ancestral Awareness into our therapeutic practices.
Apply active imagination using an embodied SE™ approach to connect to our known and unknown ancestors.
Utilize the knowledge of SE™ to remain present in the here and now, invoking the power of intuition.
Demonstrate practices to cultivate ancestral resources.
Assess transgenerational patterns and facilitate support for here-and-now presence.
Identify behaviors and emotions that may have intergenerational origins.
Utilize Somatic Experiencing® tools that can reset the nervous system back to a more authentic place of being.
Please note: always use practices with clients within your supervised training level and scope of your practice.
