Event Description

My daughter, as a four year-old, returned from the neighbors eagerly sharing how the mama chicken sits on her eggs to make them warm so they hatch. “Let’s take our eggs and put them in the oven and make them hot so they’ll hatch fast!” she said. Natural development and organic integration need precise, but very little midwifing. Our gifts as healers come not so much from being an expert, nor from being “trauma informed,” but from our precise attunement to natural emergence.

In somatics, concepts like “trauma,” “the wisdom of the body,” “trust the body,” “embodiment,” etc. can obscure the obvious manifestations of organic growth and healing. There is a common arc, with identifiable milestones, in all human development. For us to attune to the organic arc of development, what we need are maps - not more techniques. But firstly, we need fresh inspiration toward listening and adept following. This attitude of listening and following organismic wisdom suits this moment, where ailing notions of authority and control are yielding to a new organic, collective, and network intelligence.

To midwife real change and to hear the whisper of intelligent emergence we must orient toward our collective, primordial knowledge. It is by our attunement here that we can catalyze the only sensible healing intelligence - that which arises from deep within our nature.

In this webinar you will get the maps for Post-Traumatic Growth, some inspiration, and experiential exercises for yourself and clients.


Main Points of Workshop

-Unconscious bias, like the confirmation bias, keeps us from recognizing change opportunities.

-We need to shift to a complex systems understanding in order to exit the self-reinforcing echo chamber within our individual biological conditioning.

-A biology’s first priority is self-reinforcing stability (not growth)--which simultaneously perpetuates the status quo (individually, socially, societally, politically, etc).

-Human biology knows how to stabilize itself and is always making attempts to do so.

-Stabilization processes and necessary control skills (self-regulation) give way to spontaneous growth in emergence and wisdom at “critical periods” of the therapeutic process. 

-The spontaneous emergence of auto-organization increases information processing capacity and innate “affect regulation.” 

-Failure to attune to phases of the biology in its auto-organizing impulse is a (fractal) reflection of unintended patterns of violence, aggression and suppression.

-An ethical attunement paradigm of personal, collective and professional development is available and should be made widely accessible. Participants will be introduced to these ideas, and pointed toward readily accessible further resources.
