Trauma Informed Yoga
Trauma-informed yoga is a safer way of healing through the practice of yoga. This is what is referred to as a bottom-up approach.It lessens the chance of being triggered by past traumas. We store trauma energies (emotions) in our bodies. By releasing these emotions from our psoas muscle (known as the muscle of the soul) we can release pent up energy in a safe way making room for new beginnings.
Vagal Toning
Vagal toning is an embodiment practice. The vagus nerve (10th cranial nerve) when stimulated, turns on the parasympathetic nervous system to bring about rest, restoration and digestion. Turning on the parasympathetic nervous shifts one out of the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight) restoring balance to one's nervous system. This is where healing and growth can begin.
Resiliency Training
Resiliency training focusses on these four areas, emotional, cognitive and mental, physical and spiritual resilience. Incorporating breath exercises with love and kindness practices one can lower stress levels, begin to feel connected (mind, body and spirit) see challenges as areas of potential growth and find a state of ease and flow in life.
Tapping (ETF)
Tapping or EFT(Emotional Freedom Technique) is an embodied approach to relieving stress and unpleasant emotions. It is an intentional practice which can release one from habitual patterns of thinking and being. The practice draws on the principle of Chinese acupuncture (performed through acupressure) with cognition (repeating a phrase of acceptance and one of hope).
Brainspotting
Brainspotting locates points in the client’s visual field that helps to access unprocessed trauma in the subcortical brain. These relevant eye positions helps the therapist locate, focus, process and release a wide range of emotional and body-based conditions. It’s believed that it taps into and harnesses the body’s natural self-scanning and self-healing ability. It can also help find and strengthen our natural resources and resilience. It’s goal is to bypass the conscious, neocortical thinking to access the deeper, subcortical emotional and body-based parts of the brain. Brainspotting is effective for a wide variety of emotional and somatic conditions, including trauma-based situation, anxiety, depression and other behavioural conditions.
