Trauma Recovery Group:
Finding Peace Again.

This three and a half hour group will meet twice a month to assist elders in recovering from traumatic events, and their symptomatic after-effects. Together we will rediscover the body's natural sense of peace, relaxation and the spontaneous meaning which flows from a sense of somatic coherence.

Along with receiving individual sessions in the group setting participants will learn:

take home skills:
-a method to heal from chronic conditions like shut down (lethargy/depression) or overwhelm (anxiety, mania)
-how to skillfully and effectively deal with overwhelming feelings and sensations
-how to contain and embody feeling and enrich the quality of one's experience
-how to ground and center

Time and place in Sebastopol to be announced next week.

What is Somatic Experiencing® (SE)?

Somatic Experiencing® is a body-awareness approach to trauma being taught throughout the world. It is the result of over forty years of observation, research, and hands-on development by Dr. Levine. Based upon the realization that human beings have an innate ability to overcome the effects of trauma, Somatic Experiencing has touched the lives of many thousands. SE® restores self-regulation, and returns a sense of aliveness, relaxation and wholeness to traumatized individuals who have had these precious gifts taken away. Peter has applied his work to combat veterans, rape survivors, Holocaust survivors, auto accident and post surgical trauma, chronic pain sufferers, and even to infants after suffering traumatic births.

About Asher Lyman

After a three year training period which deeply convinced me as to the merit and effectiveness of SE, I was moved to offer this group to assist others in healing their post-traumatic vulnerabilities. I am also currently a PhD student in psychology at Meridian University, offer self-healing tools and Zen Shiatsu at the Amitabha clinic in Sebastopol and maintain a private practice in SE and Reichian Breathwork.
