What you will learn:
Deepen your understanding of trauma and cultivate a more compassionate, grounded way of relating to yourself and holding space for others.
This educational workshop combines accessible theory, self-reflection, and gentle practical experiences. Explore how trauma can influence the nervous system, emotions, behaviour, relationships, and sense of safety—and how trauma-informed awareness can enrich your personal life and wellness practice.
Main Topics
• Understanding trauma and its lasting impact
Explore unresolved trauma, survival coping responses, and how past experiences may continue to influence everyday life.
• The nervous system and emotional regulation
Understand nervous system dysregulation, signs of overwhelm or disconnection, and the “window of tolerance.”
• Safety, grounding, and stabilisation
Discover practical ways to support present-moment awareness and respond compassionately to emotional distress. Understand the distinction between supporting stabilisation and processing trauma.
• The art of holding space
Develop awareness of consent, choice, sensitive communication, respectful boundaries, and client-centred facilitation.
• Ethics and professional limits
Recognise the scope of your role and when to refer someone to a qualified mental health professional.
• Guided meditation with sound healing
Experience gentle guided meditation with sound, exploring mindful listening, grounding, and body awareness. Consider how pacing, sound intensity, and participant choice can support a more sensitive approach.
• Self-exploration and integration
Reflect on your own responses, needs, and boundaries, and explore how to bring these insights into daily life and your work with others.
