Lee Alumni Centre, 6163 University Blvd, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z1 This workshop has been developed in response requests for additional individual and group learning tools and processes to help correctly identify and heal limiting, and trauma-based beliefs. This workshop combines both experiential and cognitive insight approaches, and focuses on providing internal and external resourcing tools which you can use for personal healing, and/or therapy clients. This workshop teaches a number of therapeutic tools and provides time for practical application and expeiential learning. For a similar training providing the theroetical/research information only, please see this online training: In this workshop participants will review how limiting and trauma-based beliefs are formed and the role of explicit, implicit and somatic memory and transgenerational trauma. Participants will have opportunities to identify and work with beliefs on an experiential level to facilitate healing, and identify their unique internal resiliency tools. This workshop integrates various modalities such as Somatic Experiencing, mini Systemic Constellations, and several other relational and body-centered group, dyadic, and individual approaches. Learning outcomes include: 1. How trauma-based and limiting beliefs are formed and the role of explicit and implicit memory 2. How a belief can become our unconscious script through life, and why we will have varying degrees of understanding this belief (s). 3. Understand how we can pay allegiances to unconscious beliefs and patterns which served an adaptive function in our family system. How these beliefs are often not just our own and stem from family, culture, epigenetics, often repeating it in our daily lives often without even knowing its origin 4. Experiential, relational, and body-centered practices to help identify your limiting beliefs and unique defense patterns. Participants will have an opportunity to practice these tools during this workshop if they wish (please note that there are many options for levels of personal participation for each of the tools/practices. Opportuntiies for experiential participation are available but certainly not required). 5. Understanding the relationship between self-regulation and co-regulation 6. Understanding and learning how to strengthen the skills of attunement and co-regulation using relational and body-centered tools. 7. Learn internal and external resourcing tools for healing trauma and trauma-based beliefs (group, dyadic, and individual tools) 8. Identify your unique internal resiliency tools Facilitators: Angela Baff, BApSc (ME), BSc (OT), MTC, RCS Angela is a counselling therapist in private practice in Vancouver BC, a registered counselling supervisor, instructor, and a breathwork facilitator. She also holds a BApSc (Mechanical Engineering), and a BSc (Occupational Therapy) a 28 year OT career which she has recently retired from. Angela has been an instructor, workshop facilitator and public speaker with a counselling training and personal growth organization called Clearmind International since 2005, and was a regular facilitator of their Awakening workshops. She values and cherishes the transformation that occurs when people step into all aspects of themselves. Her belief is that we are all on this journey together and her own work and learning is never done. Angela has additional training in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Systemic Family Constellations, Inherited Family Trauma, Family Systems Theory, Emotional Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Transpersonal Psychology, Cathartic/Holotropic Breathwork instruction and facilitation, and Non-Violent Communication. Angela was drawn to her own healing journey due to feeling empty in all parts of her life: work, intimate relationships, and friendships to name a few. She prided herself in being independent, smart and able to figure things out on her own. This emptiness was different, there was no book, no strategy, no “let’s just put a smile on my face and move on” attitude; nothing was shifting this void no matter what she tried! She realized that all her strategies were keeping her safe but numb and it took being vulnerable and openly sharing with others to shift her inner world. It was a humbling, trusting and connective experience which infused her being with the truth that we are all connected, and that love exists. For her, love always felt elusive and ‘out there’, something she had to earn. Through the power of being vulnerable and open, Angela absolutely knows without a shadow of a doubt that love exists inside!! What a weird and wonderful fact! She doesn’t presume to know what love is, but its grace has knocked on her heart and she has followed the call to support others to find their own unique path to the joy and love that lives inside of them. She is determined and passionate in this pursuit. It’s in diving off the edge into the unknown, into the scary, into the hidden that hones her skill to guide others into the depth of that territory. Angela leads with a gentle, accepting, and direct manner and has a deep reverence for our human dilemmas as it is the messy stuff of growth and healing. She leaves you with a quote: “People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own souls. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.” – Carl Jung.
