Understanding Somatic Practice
Somatic practice, as an influential approach to mental health and well-being has been gaining ground in recent years. This holistic intervention uses body-awareness strategies to facilitate healing, growth, and change. At the AURA Institute, we embrace a comprehensive understanding of this practice, recognizing it as more than a therapeutic technique but a transformative tool for holistic health.
Somatic Practice as a Therapeutic Tool
Embodied in the field of somatic psychology, somatic practice is a powerful therapeutic tool that enables individuals to tap into the wisdom of their bodies. By focusing on the body's sensations and internal experiences, this practice helps individuals reconnect with their innate capacity for self-regulation and healing.
"The body remembers what the mind forgets.” - Dr. Bessel van der Kolk.
Role of Somatic Practice in Trauma-Informed Training and Education
In trauma-informed training and education, somatic practice plays an indispensable role. It not only aids in building resilience and coping strategies but also promotes a deeper understanding of how trauma manifests in the body. That's why the AURA Institute offers diverse training courses in this field.
When trauma is stored in the body, traditional "talk therapies" can sometimes fall short. Somatic practice, however, by focusing on the body's sensations, can unlock the healing potential where words fail.
