Trauma Resolution Skills in Craniosacral Biodynamics
Work in Craniosacral Therapy can access trauma-bound energies and related patterns in the central nervous system and in the tissues and fluid fields of the body. This direct access to trauma-bound energy, and the unresolved cycling of traumatic impacts, makes it imperative that the practitioner understands trauma concepts in both theory and clinical practice. This two-seminar training is geared to give practitioners a working knowledge of trauma, states of traumatic activation and trauma resolution skills within clinical practice. The material in this course integrates both physiological and clinical understandings with the work of Dr. Peter Levine, a psychologist with years of experience in trauma work, Core Process Psychotherapy approaches to emotional catharsis and states of CNS activation, with a biodynamic approach to Craniosacral Therapy.
Trauma Resolution Skills in Craniosacral Biodynamics: Seminar One
Setting the biodynamic context for understanding trauma and traumatic activation in session work.
• The importance of the therapist’s inner state of presence and resource. The inherent state of being as a core state of presence; setting up the relational field as a being-to-being field and the generation of a safe holding environment.
• How trauma impacts the territories of Source, being and self. The importance of a stable and coherent sense of being within the core of the self-system and the loss of coherency and continuity of being in traumatization.
• Understanding the role of the cortex, limbic system and sensorimotor system in homeostasis and in stress and traumatization.
• How traumatization impacts neural processing and impinges on the fluidity of top-down and bottom-up processing within the central nervous system.
• Understanding the stress response.
• The stages of the natural response to dangerous or traumatic experience, the orientating response, fight or flight and states of overwhelm, freezing and dissociation. Review of the neurology related to the stress response, the role of important nuclei, the role of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Understanding the role of the amygdala, thalamus, temporal lobe areas, hippocampus, pre-frontal cortex, H-P-A axis, brain stem and important nuclei related to the stress response.
• The role of the pre-frontal cortex and present-time awareness in trauma work.
• Understanding the nature of traumatic activation and emotional release in the context of clinical work.
Specific Clinical Skills:
• Meditative/contemplative exercises on the Tides, the three bodies (physical, fluid and tidal bodies), Dynamic Stillness and inner felt-resources.
• Understanding the role of stillness within the healing process and the importance of the Long Tide and Dynamic Stillness in working with traumatic activation.
• The importance of shifting from CRI and mid-tide levels of work to Long Tide and Dynamic Stillness.
• The importance of the holistic shift, primal (notochord) midline, Long Tide and Dynamic Stillness in trauma resolution.
• Resourcing your client both in the felt-sense of inner resource and in primary respiration within a biodynamic context.
• Learning grounding, pacing and orienting skills.
• The importance of orienting clients to an awareness of sensation and felt-reality.
• Working with emotional affect and emotional catharsis.
• Working with hyper-arousal state and emotional flooding. Practitioner awareness of client states of CNS activation, hyper-arousal, and incomplete defensive processes in the body and helping them complete. The role of exhalation oriented stillpoints in states of hyper-arousal.
• Specific cranial work oriented to the down-regulation of the central nervous system: The perception of CNS motility, accessing homeostasis in CNS motility and perception of important brain areas and CNS nuclei.
• Down-regulation of the H-P-A axis. Specific cranial approaches. craniosacral biodynamics: franklyn sills
Trauma Resolution Skills in Craniosacral Biodynamics: Seminar two
Trauma Concepts and skills continued.
• Practitioner awareness of hypo-arousal states (states of freezing, immobilization and dissociation) and appropriate clinical approaches.
• Understanding dissociative states and their physiology. The role of the orienting response in dissociative states.
• The Poly-vagal system. Porges’ paradigm of a triune autonomic nervous system (social, sympathetic and parasympathetic) and its importance in trauma work. Understanding the role of different CNS nuclei in the poly-vagal system.
• Understanding the role of nociception (pain reception) in traumatization and trauma work.
Specific Clinical Skills:
• Working with frozen defensive intentions, states of freezing and immobilization and parasympathetic states. Helping the client process unresolved frozen defensive intentions. Understanding and working with the CNS processing hierarchy.
• Working with dissociative states. The role of inquiry, orientation to felt-sensation and the re-establishment of the orienting response. The role of inhalation oriented stillpoints in hypoarousal and dissociative states.
• Working to help return the poly-vagal system to homeostasis, and the role of the social nervous system in healing processes. Specific cranial approaches.
• Working with the nociceptive hierarchy, the down-regulation of nociceptive loops (local fulcrums, sensorimotor loops, spinal cord sensitization, brain stem and higher center sensitization. Specific cranial approaches.
• The nature of early pre- and perinatal trauma and its impact on adult systems.
