Time to move!
This presentation will be a participative event and will demonstrate the effects of physical activity in therapy, in education groups and in family therapy. The creative and movement activities to promote trauma theories have been discussed in the work of Dan Siegel, Dr Bessel Van der Kolk, and Liana Lowenstein and many other inspiring teachers.
Use of talking therapy can be enhanced with creative activities. Use of physical activity assists in accessing complex information quickly and promotes relationships. Connection, as found in this kind of therapy is an essential part of trauma treatment.
In this presentation a sample of activities will be shared and demonstrated in this presentation.
Come and have some fun!
