Yoga and the Traumatized Body 

Dates: July 13 - 14, 2009

Time: 8:30 A.M.-4:30 P.M.

Location: 1019 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA

Cost: $350.00 Full, $315.00 Group/Student (requires proof of student status, or 3+ registrants from same institution at same time); Cost includes training as well as Trauma Center Yoga Manual for Clinicians

Presenters: David Emerson, E-RYT, Elizabeth Hopper, Ph.D, and members of the Trauma Center Yoga Team

In this two-day training, clinicians will learn yoga techniques that can be introduced into a typical one-to-one therapy or small group session. We will present some basic seated yoga techniques that will give the clinician or healthcare provider a new set of tools to address some of the most fundamental and persistent symptoms of PTSD such as feeling totally overwhelmed by sensation, disembodied, dissociated, powerless and more. The Training Team will also provide clinicians and other providers with some self-care techniques, recognizing that the work of being with severely traumatized clients on the path to healing is extremely challenging and requires special attention to one's own health and well-being.
