Healing from Trauma - 4 Week Somatic Therapy Course | 25 May - 15 June 2023 | Cork City
Cultivating Safety within our Bodies
25 May - 15 June 2023 | Thursdays, 7pm - 9pm
This four week course offers you a warm and supportive space to deepen your understanding of the nature of stress and trauma, while offering you somatic practices and resources for regulating your nervous system and supporting you in cultivating feelings of safety within your own self and coming into a more kind and nourishing relationship with your own self.
Weaving together somatic psychotherapy and breath and movement practices, you are invited to slow down and attune to the language deep inside your body- coming to know your bodily sensations, listening to your patterns of holding and tension and the ways in which your body may be stuck in fight/flight/freeze/fawn survival responses as a result of stress or past trauma.
By tending to your body in this way, you will deepen your capacity to listen to your own needs, strengthen your boundaries and come to know what can support and resource your body’s holding patterns. This supports you in regulating your nervous system, cultivating feelings of safety within and coming into a more compassionate relationship with your own self.
Learning to inhabit the felt sense of your body is also a doorway into presence, a way for you to access your own aliveness and creativity and to come to know what brings you joy and vitality.
In this course you will:
Learn about the nature of stress and trauma
Learn to identify your body’s holding patterns of fight/flight/freeze/fawn
Learn somatic resources for regulating your nervous system and cultivating feelings of safety within your body
Learn about the role of the nervous system in regulating your emotions and learn somatic practices for supporting yourself in turning towards difficult emotions
Explore somatic practices for inviting your body into a place of rest and relaxation
Deepen your awareness of what brings joy and nourishment to your body
Each week you will be offered a rich variety of resources, somatic practices, guided meditations and journal prompts to support and strengthen your process.
This course takes place at 4 Tuckey Street, Cork, a warm and nourishing space in the heart of Cork City.
Places are limited. Booking is essential. Please note purchases are non-refundable but are transferable.

"The highest truth grows from the deepest roots in the body”
- Carl Jung
Some kind words.
“A truly powerful and transformational four week course. It was a beautiful journey inwards. Each week I grew the courage to be with myself more. The support from Emer and the other women in the group was a wonderful experience.” (LOC)
“A gentle and empowering experience with a lovely blend of insightful theory and nourishing embodiment practices.” (LD)
“An amazing experience. This was the first time I felt I could address some of my nervous system activations. Previous talk therapy was great for the mind but this course has been great for my soul.” (KMcC)
“Emer is an exceptional facilitator, so warm, calm and compassionate. She walks what she is teaching as you can see she has done the work. An inspiration to anyone doing her courses.” (OOM)
“This course was exactly what I needed. After a lot of talk therapy, I hadn’t acknowledged how much I had overlooked the “felt” experience. This course has given me a path home.” (DP)
