We now have a growing foundation of brain-wise, multisensory data on how trauma impacts both mind and body. But progress has been slow when it comes to translating this rich data into protocols that practitioners can actually apply to their work. This recording begins with a discussion of current findings on the default mode network, interoception, sensory integration, and somatosensory maps and similar studies, focusing on how they can inform innovative and sound clinical practice strategies. Because this session will include actual hands-on practices, participants will experience several strategies that translate “lab data” into expressive, sensory-based interventions. Please have white paper and basic drawing materials [felt markers, oil pastels, or colored pencils] on hand and be ready to actively engage and explore several approaches during this session. We will conclude with time to discuss next steps and how we can continue to translate emerging data into effective methods in our work with traumatic stress.
