Course Description:
Our resourcing series is about reconnecting with our innate resources that are beyond our conditioned mind and ego defenses. These are fundamental human virtues such as love, compassion, courage, wisdom, joy, presence, innocence and others. In this course we will reconnect with the essential qualities of love and compassion and how we can implement them in our own healing and in working with clients in healing deep trauma.
Course Goal
The aim of the course is to teach the students about the Green Essence, how to recognize the psychological issues due to the lack of this capacity or because of the way we got cut off from it and how to work with resourcing clients with this core quality.
Learning Objectives:
After completing this course the students will be able to:
1. Explore the Green Essence through inquiry, mirroring and feedback
2. Facilitate the deep healing of trauma through connecting with the heart, mirroring and touch
3. Utilize exercises that bring the client in touch with their heart and vulnerability
4. Distinguish between healthy compassion and playing the savior role
5. Guide client to embrace their inner child, to show compassion and acceptance vs. self - criticism and judgment
6. Explore roles adopted in childhood vs. the authentic sense of self
