Join international trauma expert and author, Peter A. Levine, Ph.D., to learn how sensation-based (as opposed to emotional or rational) treatment is the key inroad into the trauma, and how to slowly uncouple fear from the natural immobility state. He will discuss his nine principles in successful trauma healing, all told through his own successful renegotiation of a personal traumatic event.
Representing the full scope of his life’s work and discovery, Dr. Levine will discuss the evolutionary underpinnings of trauma. The day will include an in-depth review of how trauma is related to the ethnological concept of tonic immobility, the importance of the so-called “primitive” Vagus system, and how its connections through the viscera and body are a key ally in trauma therapy.
This online program is worth 5.0 hours CPD.
