Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness with David Treleaven - Workshop

Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness with David Treleaven - Workshop April 10th 2021 - Portugal More informations + registration: http://meditt.space/t/trauma-sensitiv... Anywhere mindfulness is being practiced―including college classrooms―someone in the room is likely to be struggling with trauma: a majority of us will experience a traumatic event in our lifetime, and up to 20% of us will develop posttraumatic stress. At first glance, this may appear to be an opportunity for healing, since trauma creates stress, and mindfulness is a proven stress-reduction tool. But the reality is not so simple. When practiced without an awareness of trauma, mindfulness practice can exacerbate symptoms of traumatic stress. When instructed to pay close, sustained attention to their inner world, survivors can experience flashbacks, dissociation, and even retraumatization. This raises a crucial question for mindfulness teachers, trauma professionals, and survivors everywhere: How can we minimize the potential dangers of mindfulness for survivors while leveraging its powerful benefits? In the April Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness in Portugal, educator and trauma professional David Treleaven will draw on a decade of research and clinical experience to discuss safe, transformative ways of teaching and practicing mindfulness with an awareness of trauma. David will review of the histories of mindfulness and trauma, including the way modern neuroscience is shaping our understanding of both, and explore case studies and examples illustrating the ways mindfulness can help―or hinder―trauma recovery. Workshop participants will learn about modifications designed to support practitioners’ safety and stability that can be applied to different settings. The result is a groundbreaking and practical approach for practicing mindfulness in a safe, transformative way.
