Trauma is a big topic at the moment, and rightly so. It's exciting to see so many more people being empowered by understanding that particular patterns or habits or parts of themselves that they've not previously understood could stem from unprocessed trauma.

We want to know when this knowledge is empowering, and when it could actually still be limiting us from growing and processing traumatic events.

We want to offer a different perspective to trauma. An empowering narrative that looks at the patterns that we develop in response to traumatic events that are empowering, protective and maybe in some cases, even find humour and lightness in our whole selves (no matter where a pattern or habit might stem from).

In this workshop, we'll look at some ways we can use our past to empower us:

• the basics of trauma and how it can manifest in the nervous system and body;
• ways to improve our connection with our body;
• how to develop a compassionate approach to the way we view ourselves and our past;
• simple body-based exercises for increasing our connection to our bodies.

Rather than giving you a lecture on the theory of the above, this workshop will be highly practical and you'll learn more about yourself, your patterns and your behaviour.

Why is embodiment important in relationships?

You can’t feel another person if you don’t feel what’s happening in your body. How we feel another person is through paying attention and recognising the sensations in our body. We feel our own body in response to the other body, we feel our own emotions in response to their emotions. That feedback mechanism gets disrupted if you are not sensitive. Responsiveness within yourself translates to responsiveness to outside yourself.

Invest 30 minutes in yourself to improve your compassion, relationships, energy levels, time management, and overall happiness & wellbeing.

Keep learning with us

Every first and third Sunday of the month, Centrd Life host a free workshop to help you cultivate a stronger connection to your bodily sensations and as a result, improve your emotional awareness.

As we go through this journey together, we help you strip away layers of habitual behaviour that once helped you cope and develop better habits in line with who you can be.

With these new habits, we learn to set boundaries without building walls, create better relationships with ourselves and others and become better & compassionate leaders.
