Are you tired of going round and round talking about the same issues with your clients? Or meeting the same blocks and rigidity in their body after it looked like it had shifted last session?
Wouldn't it be great to have a way to resolve these patterns via an ancient and intelligent system inbuilt into every one of your clients?
And in a way that increases mindfulness, self awareness and presence in them as well? (Therefore improves their quality of life!)
Introducing ...
THE NERVOUS SYSTEM and this mini Somatic Therapy Training <<
In this training you'll learn:
An overview of the physiology/nervous system, and how the brain lays down repetitive patterns, behaviours and feelings states that can be worked with via the map of the nervous system,
The nervous systems role in physical and ego survival (and how this links with internal emotional, mental and spiritual layers and external behaviours of a person)
Signs and signals the body, behaviour and language give you about where a client is in their fight/flight/freeze responses around an issue,
Tools to work with and resolve different nervous system states,
Tools for helping your clients move into embodied empowerment
Tools for settling your own nervous system in your own life or when hearing distressing content from a client.
Im also excited to tailor this workshop to the needs of the participants.. and you'll get a chance to tell me what you'd love to learn before we meet.

WHO RUNS THIS WORKSHOP?
Hi, Im Amanda and I've been working "somatically" for 16+ years.. I started out as a bodyworker and moved to somatic therapy and coaching when I realised I really wanted to be able work with the patterns in the mind and emotions that were creating the tension or collapse I was meeting on my massage table.
I am Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Lead Essence Coach with the Essence School (amongst many other things!) and am deeply in love with my work. I find working somatically is very soulful.. the body is a place of such wisdom, depth and intelligence.
I look forward to sharing what I know with you.
Please note, this is not a substitute for training with Somatic Experiencing (SE) Australia and I am not certified to give trainings in SE methods.

"I loved cementing and growing my love for the wisdom of the body. Finding new ways to listen, and understanding how to guide someone gently though trauma and unreleased emotion, so that the body can release naturally and we can begin to befriend the whole spectrum of feelings" - Jody
