YOGA ALLIANCE CERTIFIED

30-HOUR CONTINUED EDUCATION COURSE

trauma informed somatic wellness training

TRAUMA-INFORMED IS PEOPLE-INFORMED

The Sacred Movement’s Trauma-Informed Somatic Wellness Teacher Training is a 30-hour online training providing Yoga and Meditation teachers, Space Holders and Holistic Wellness Practitioners with a fundamental understanding of what trauma is, how it affects us, and how to approach trauma within a Somatic Mindfulness Practice setting.

We will explore research-based insights on how trauma impacts our neurology and physiology, how Somatic Mindfulness can address the dysregulation created by trauma, and how we can weave this awareness into supportive, trauma-informed mindful healing spaces.

Mindfulness teachers and practitioners will leave this training not only with an intellectual understanding of trauma, but with a more deeply embodied self-awareness, which is crucial to the delivery of any these somatic healing practices.
