Trauma Awareness & Education
TRAUMA EDUCATION MEETS
PERSONAL GROWTH
HALF-DAY and FULL DAY WORKSHOPS
Understanding, dealing with, and healing from trauma is a complex, multi-layered, delicate process:
if unacknowledged and unattended, trauma can stunt, block and sabotage our human development, profoundly affect our health and make it really difficult, or almost impossible, to create a meaningful and authentic life and be of any effective contribution to a polarized and fractured world .
THE WORKSHOPS WILL COVER THE FOLLOWING:
- What trauma is and how it affects us
- Creatively provide foundational tools to foster personal growth through connecting with the nervous system and the body
