The Resilient Brain Programs

Awareness is an important step in the process of change and yet because awareness requires acknowledgment, it can also prove challenging. The legacy of mindfulness practice encompasses a wide array of versatile, valuable tools that can help all of us, clinician and client alike, cultivate awareness of emotions, thoughts, sensations, triggers, patterns, and more. When thoughtfully guided and supplemented with effective autonomic nervous system regulation interventions such as the Havening Techniques, simple, easy to use mindfulness practices can greatly enhance our ability to make conscious choices and create change. Rebecca Turner, LMFT, Certified Mindfulness Informed Clinician and Certified Havening Techniques Practitioner , and Truitt Institute Trainer invites you along on an experiential workshop to learn the fundamentals of mindfulness practices that cultivate presence, awareness, groundedness, and set the stage for change. Excellent for long-time practitioners and those new to mindfulness; no prior mindfulness training required.

Both for the sufferers and the helpers, the impact of stressful experiences on the mind and body often lingers for days, weeks, or months, silently impacting quality of life, motivation, energy, and mental health.

Anxiety is one of the most common reasons for seeking therapeutic treatment, and yet, it can remain a stubbornly persistent factor in a client’s life despite skilled and mindful treatment. Why? Because anxiety is vital to our survival! Neurobiological processes deep in the brain are constantly working to keep our clients safe and alive. These processes, while benevolently intended, often cause havoc as they fuel catastrophizing fears, ruminating worries, obsessive fears, and a general state of fear of the world. While reasoning with anxiety can be helpful, all too often we may find old habits and fears slipping right back into place, leaving clinician and client alike frustrated and confused. Join us in this exciting and innovative workshop to learn about the fundamental neurobiology of the anxious brain and how to work with anxiety, transforming it back into the ally and protector it is designed to be!
