Understand trauma literacy through a neuroscience lens: explore how the nervous system responds to stress and trauma, and how resilience is supported through body-based practices.
Practice grounding and interoceptive skills: develop steadying strategies that invite choice, awareness of body signals, and gentle regulation for self and others.
Strengthen language that fosters dignity and trust: use invitational, choice-centered communication that supports empowerment and reduces retraumatization risk.
Clarify scope of practice and ethical foundations: explore role boundaries, cultural awareness, and collaborative care as essential elements of safe trauma-aware practice.
Experience wraparound care in community: learn alongside professionals across disciplines, experiencing how safety, trust, and empowerment ripple outward when practiced together.
By completing this training, participants gain practical tools they can use immediately, alongside a framework for deepening their professional presence. These skills not only support safer classrooms, studios, and therapy spaces, but they also cascade outward by contributing to stronger families, workplaces, and communities.
Every participant receives a Trauma-Aware 30 Card Deck (Yoga or Somatic edition). These cards provide accessible, choice-based prompts for grounding, reflection, and regulation, offering an ongoing resource for personal use, professional practice, or group settings.
