How Floor Checks Unlock Emotional Release in Large Groups | RTR in Dublin: Part One

This 2 part training demonstrates how Relational Trauma Repair (RTR) spectrograms and Floor Checks and psychodrama facilitate emotional release and nervous system regulation in large group settings—especially when participants are carrying significant cognitive, emotional, and somatic load. Through experiential, body-based processes, group members are able to externalize inner experience, reduce overwhelm, and move toward connection and integration. Following two intensive days of workshops focused on polyvagal theory and Internal Family Systems (IFS), the group arrived with a great deal of unexpressed energy—curiosity, emotion, insight, fatigue, and longing for connection. While the learning had been rich, many participants were holding more than they had been able to metabolize while sitting, listening, and thinking. RTR offered a different pathway. Through spectrograms and Floor Checks, the group was invited into repeated and varying clustering—allowing participants to locate themselves in relation to shared experiences, move physically, see one another, and speak from lived truth. This shifting configuration gave the large group multiple opportunities to identify, reflect, and connect without overwhelming exposure or pressure. The Floor Check process supported co-regulation rather than dysregulation. Participants were not pushed to perform or disclose; instead, they were offered structure, choice, and relational witnessing. As people moved, spoke briefly, and listened, emotional energy that had been building quietly found expression. What emerged was not dramatic catharsis, but a quiet, collective release—a settling of the nervous system through shared recognition. This training illustrates how RTR processes translate effectively beyond small groups or individual work. In large settings, spectrograms and Floor Checks create safety, normalize emotional experience, and allow groups to regulate together—transforming accumulated intensity into connection, presence, and integration. For participants who had been holding insight without embodiment, this work provided something essential: the chance to talk, to move, to be seen, and to let emotion land in relationship. The result was a palpable shift from internal holding to shared human experience.
