This is an offer to mental health professionals and arts practitioners continuing to offer support to vulnerable people and organisations at this time. It will be an opportunity to think through and prioritise effective strategies in terms of supporting others, learn specific body based skills to support self-regulation, resourcing and strategies to lower the risk of secondary trauma.

This seminar helps you reduce the risk of secondary trauma, the symptoms of which are often similar to 'burnout'. The day will be part theoretical with an emphasis on experiential learning, providing practical techniques you can use to enhance your practice.

It is aimed at mental health professionals, therapists, performers, artists working in mental healthcare settings, and people interested in personal development.

The theoretical aspect includes the sharing of the psycho education of mechanisms that are involved in secondary trauma, based on insights from recent neuroscience.

Experiential learning combines simple body-based strategies with mindfulness and breathing techniques, which support regulation specifically of the autonomic nervous system. You will receive a toolkit of body-based strategies as part of the workshop.
