The Heart of Attunement is an 8 week practitioner training that develops and expands your ability to dynamically attune to yourself & others with an experiential introduction to the skill of embodied attunement.

What is embodied attunement and why is it important for therapists?

• Embodied attunement is a natural state where awareness through perceptory senses weaves together with felt experience. When listened to with sensitivity and aptitude this becomes a profound and vital resource of information and felt embodied connection.

• Embodied attunement is a powerful addition to any modality both dialogue and touch based.   When present in a practitioner it is foundational in instilling safety and energetic rapport with clients yet beyond this there is potential for vast and evolving expansion of empathic connection and multisensory communication pathways where the rich internal terrains of self, other, and the greater field are accessible.

• The integration of this into one’s body, practice, and skillful facilitation fosters being with your own and others deep humanity and bridges into the landscapes of the inner world. In this place, if we are fluent in listening and open to the field of awareness, we may be informed of what is present, yet unspoken or dwelling in the subconscious terrain and internal systems of our client.

• A practitioner who has developed strong attunement skills can work at a deeper capacity within their chosen field and also expand beyond the range of modalities.  The scope of a session can open to what is truly present and needed at any given moment.  Making it invaluable in terms of expanding and deepening the potential of the therapeutic and healing space.

What does the training involve?

• 2 x 1 day in-person group training

  The Level 1 Training begins with focusing on learning how to attune to yourself, to others, and the greater field. Through experiential processes, students will explore the rich terrains of their inner world which encompass the physical, psychological, emotional, energetic, and spiritual.

• 4 x mentorship/training sessions

  This component of the training is all about working closely to meet the places in which you are developing in the personal and professional spheres (they are intimately interconnected)

  These 4 sessions tailor personalised learning, development and professional mentorship. This container serves to illuminate areas of your personal and professional growth and support you to meet, enquire and integrate these inner thresholds.

  These sessions are available in-person and online.

• 2 x personal 1:1 sessions

  Receiving personal sessions affords not only integration and support but is the most effective opportunity to receive, experience and explore the style of embodied attunement you are learning. Students are asked to book two personal sessions over the eight weeks. The cost of these sessions is not included in the course fee.

• Learning Resources

  Reading materials and resources will be provided, covering body based psychotherapeutic aspects such as the nervous system, survival states, regulation, resourcing, shadow and exiled material, parts, protective strategies and awareness of trauma. Knowledge in these areas is not necessary to experience body centred attunement yet as we sensitise to the subtleties of embodied self awareness it is imperative to develop a map of the inner world and workings of the psyche.
