We invite you to join us for a 4-day live, online retreat with Dr. Gabor Maté and Betsy Polatin MFA, SEP this March 3–6, 2022. Learn more and register at https://www.scienceandnonduality.com/webinar/healing-trauma-with-self-compassion .
In this unique online retreat, Dr. Gabor Maté will share decades of teachings and research on healing trauma. He will help us discover the roots of our trauma and build a relationship with it, so we can begin to uncover our true selves from beneath the hurts and adaptations which have left us stuck in contraction, defense and reactivity. The retreat will include daily teachings, exposure to trauma-revealing tools and case studies. Much of the time will be spent in one-on-one Compassionate Inquiry practice.
We will learn to:
🔹 Disentangle from unconscious patterns that no longer serve us
🔹 Uncover unconscious feeling states and access early traumatic events
🔹 Develop self-compassion through the Compassionate Inquiry technique
🔹 Discover the wisdom of our body
🔹 Use meditation and breathing practices to generate calm and stability
🔹 Cultivate patience, respect and choice in the healing process
🔹 Find a balanced stance in ourselves
🔹Increase our capacity for self-expression, connection and aliveness
This program will feature Dr. Gabor Maté’s unique therapeutic work and teaching, Compassionate Inquiry, enhanced by movement and breathwork led by Betsy Polatin. We will explore emotional realities and traumatic imprints that spiritual modalities often ignore.
This will be an in-depth program, suitable for therapists, spiritual seekers and anyone looking for a profound, experiential understanding of their traumatic imprint and the hidden beliefs that sustain it.
The content of this course will be similar to what was presented at the “Returning to Ourselves” 2020 retreat, the “Reclaiming Wholeness” 2021 retreat, and the “Discovering the Wisdom of Trauma” 2021 retreat. If you attended those events, this one will allow you to deepen your experience and understanding of the material.
