You may have been told that trauma lives in the body until we’re willing to feel it. Research shows, however, that it is counter-productive to turn toward this pain before we feel resourced, safe and supported. So, how are we to know when to apply the gas in our practice, versus when to hit the brakes?
In this episode, we hear from mindfulness and meditation researcher, Dr. Willoughby Britton. She shares helpful advice you can apply today to bring more trauma sensitivity to your practice and teaching. Her research into the adverse effects of meditation (Episode #047) has helped her understand how meditation guides can help people feel more empowered in their practice.
This talk is a brief excerpt from Dr. Willoughby Britton’s guest teacher presentation to those enrolled in the Mindfulness Exercises Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program. This unique, online, self-paced certification program balances pre-recorded webinars with live mentorship. Students in the program learn directly from Sean Fargo, his team, and some of the world’s most respected mindfulness and meditation experts.
