Join us as we dive into this transformative journey, unveiling the power of somatic training and its potential in trauma transformation.


Understanding Somatic Training

Derived from the Greek term ‘soma’, meaning ‘living body’, somatic training approaches wellbeing through a unique lens, considering the mind-body interconnectedness. This approach emphasizes that our physical bodies are not just vessels carrying our minds around, but instruments that reflect our mental and emotional states.

"Somatic training promotes the idea that our bodies remember and store memories of trauma, manifesting physical symptoms and disorders over time."These memories of trauma, in the form of embodied sensations, can be accessed, explored, and ultimately, transformed through somatic training.


Recognizing the Implications of Trauma

In order to comprehend the implications of somatic training, it is crucial to understand the pervasive nature of trauma. Trauma leaves a lasting impact, often causing an array of mental health challenges, from depression and anxiety to more severe conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

However, trauma's manifestations are not confined to mental health. Research shows that our bodies also bear the brunt of traumatic experiences, often storing these experiences deep within ourselves. Symptoms may present as fatigue, chronic pain, and other physical ailments.

Somatic training boldly steps into this intricate scenario, unveiling a new avenue for trauma healing.


Role of Somatic Training in Trauma Transformation

Somatic training can facilitate deep inner transformation, allowing trauma survivors to better understand their symptoms, recognize and manage triggers, and move forward towards recovery. This recovery process is not just about eliminating symptoms, but about empowering individuals to regain control over their lives.

In our Somatic Experiencing training, we immerse trainees in a comprehensive curriculum, covering somatic theories, embodied trauma practices, and practical skills for trauma resolution. Through this training, participants are equipped with advanced tools and techniques designed to facilitate deep shifts in coping with trauma.
