Course Details

This program benefits both educators and students, helping teachers to manage their own triggers while providing leading-edge techniques for dealing with students who have experienced trauma.

This program was initially designed for and delivered to the First Nations School Board with overwhelming positive feedback and success.

Being trauma aware today is crucial for all educators and leaders because these are such unprecedented, stressful times.

With technology that is stealing our attention and disconnecting children from their basic needs, to climate change that's worsening anxiety and depression in youth, to the recent detailed exposures of oppression against marginalized communities, to a global pandemic, not to mention the unstable political climate that's threatening nuclear warfare, our systems are bombarded with toxic, violent information.

Without the proper tools, teachers who implement any kind of contemplative practices into their classroom, be it breathing, mindfulness or yoga, will inevitably trigger or even re-traumatize their students due to lack of knowledge and understanding.

Our unique training program is designed to restore wholeness, by re-integrating body and mind, known today as interoception.

Trauma-informed somatic practices include breathing, movement and self-massage to gently foster a reconnection with the body.

The mindfulness practices train the mind for dealing with intrusive thoughts, and provide strategies for dealing with flashbacks and overwhelming triggers.

In the end, this experience empowers individuals to approach life in a way that promotes self-care, compassion, patience and self-advocacy.

Topics Include:

  • Trauma-sensitive terms

  • Factors that influence the impact of trauma

  • Signs and symptoms of trauma

  • Dealing with the traumatized brain

  • Why mindfulness for healing trauma

  • Trauma-sensitive language

  • Trauma-sensitive classroom setup

  • Trauma-sensitive mindfulness and movement practices

  • Post-traumatic growth
