Bodynamic workshop with Tina Janken Tage

BUILDING SOMATIC SENSATIONS OF RESOURCEFULNESS
With Tina Janken Tage
15-17 September in Ljubljana, Slovenia
-
Warm welcome to this 3-day journey based on Bodynamic - Somatic developmental psychology approach, where we will explore tools and exercises to create somatic sensations of being resourceful and use this knowledge for our work with clients.
The workshop is build up with the aim of giving participants tools and exercises to:
-prevent stress
-being with stress
-move on from a stressful situation or time in life.
The workshop will be mainly exercises and practical tools and less theory. It will be a mixture of exercises useful in everyday life and in a crisis.
To prevent stress/being with stress/move on after stressful times (in general create greater self-sustainability) we can benefit from integrating somatic sensations of resourcefulness. Through somatic exercises relating to the psychological theme of feeling backed up/supported, finding it safe to reach out and take in, therapists can help themselves being more resourceful. They can use the same exercises when working with clients who struggle with asking for help.
In Bodynamic the approach is: Focus on bodyawareness through bodysensations in muscles that already have resources before working on the more collapsed or tensed muscles.
Exercises used in Bodynamic are aimed at certain psychological themes, done so it fits collapsed or tense muscles, bodysensations are described and emotions are added and potential interpretation of the experience will lead to the ability to make choices in life.
