​Foundations in Prenatal and Perinatal Dynamics™
 Prerequisite for the Integrated Prenatal and Perinatal Dynamics™​ training

This Foundations course in Integrated Prenatal and Perinatal Dynamics™ offers the basic building blocks for working early overwhelming states that may occur starting preconception, including conception, pregnancy, birth and attachment. Often called early developmental trauma, recognition, reaching and healing ruptures or interruptions in development from this early time are increasingly seen as the cracks in the foundation of human health. Current healing science now includes overwhelming childhood experiences and ancestral patterns; the prenatal and perinatal period is the missing piece. This introductory workshop will give you tools so you can normalize early difficulty and have a skill base to help families get the best possible start and individuals onto the healing path. The first step is working with your own internal states and is vital to the relationship you establish with your client base. Our course combines early trauma resolution with midwifery model of care.  Come, study, learn, heal. ​

Learning Objectives. Participants will:
  • Develop skills of self and co-regulation, stabilization, and coherency in the body.
  • Demonstrate basic skills for trauma release, including resourcing, facilitated felt sense exercises, and directed energy techniques.
  • Create touch sequences to stabilize and facilitate energy in the body for trauma release.
  • Understand one aspect of the baby's experience of birth from the inside out, and the 5 point sequence as an imprint.
  • Differentiate and introductory sense of the blueprint and imprint in trauma prevention and resolution.

Virtual Attendees
This is course is mostly experiential, filled with exercises that will teach about autonomic nervous system state, blueprint positive states especially, and how to work with trauma experiences somatically. Most exercises can be done in small groups online. The last day we complete a birth sequence together as a group, everyone taking a turn with the support of all of us. For those who attend virtually we will do this with you online, with you in your own space. We are still discovering ways for you to have this experience so that you can touch in with your own early experience. It will give you a taste of early imprints then you can discern if you want to go further in learning prenatal and perinatal dynamics.

You will be able to attend this live workshop via zoom technology.
