Hi all, I’ve just launched my research for my Masters in Consciousness, Spirituality and Transpersonal Psychology. If you or someone you know has unexpectedly lost a loved one I’d really appreciate your participation.

Research to understand attitudes toward death and dying and to contribute toward us, as individuals and a culture, doing death well. https://forms.gle/a2xL5SiBVgXfmru18

One of the tenets of Transpersonal Psychology is transformation.

Many of the people I work with who have dysregulated nervous systems as the result of traumatic experiences, are under the impression that this dysregulation cannot be healed.

That just isn’t true.

Talk therapy, identifying behavioural and cognitive patterns is helpful. But, a Transpersonal approach that acknowledges the power of the present moment and listening deeply to the body, provides a doorway to transformation.

The energy that gets trapped in your body and causes a range of physical, mental and emotional symptoms can be discharged when it is met in your body, in the present moment.

Healing trauma is possible.

Call Catherine on 0420 439 139, or email info .com.au or navigate to https://yogafromtheinside.com.au. In person in Richmond on Tuesdays, online other days and times. 😊🙏🦋

According to Peter Levine (leading trauma researcher and teacher) there are four indicators of trauma (he understands trauma as the manifestation of a dysregulated nervous system that has trapped undischarged survival energy). These are: hypervigilance, contraction, dissociation and immobility. In my experience, dissociation can be particularly challenging and can easily tip into immobility, which is possibly the worst manifestation.

These manifestations are all below the level of conscious control. So, what can be done? If you notice dissociation, simply be aware of it. Notice what the physical sensation in your body is of being dissociated. What does it actually feel like? Perhaps say to yourself, “this is a trauma response”. Awareness itself is your friend and can interrupt a tirade of “there’s something wrong with me” thoughts and the associated panic. Cultivate Awareness, that’s it! Simple, not necessarily easy.

Located at Richmond on Tuesdays, returning 13 January. Online other days and times by appointment.

As an alternative mental health therapist I don’t get government subsidies. As a yoga therapist and somatic meditation teacher I can offer a different approach grounded in the body.

There’s lots of evidence to support a somatic approach to trauma, anxiety and depression. If you’d like to try a different from the mainstream, but still evidence based approach, I would be honoured to work with you.

I offer in person one to one coaching at Richmond and online. Take a look in the bio to view more details about the way I work and my qualifications. I hope to meet you soon. 🙏😊💜

Life is hard, full of pains, but also gifts. Things end, things keep going, new things start. This is the human condition from which none of us can scape. 😔

This was Bilpin yesterday morning. I call it ‘morning magnolia’. The light in the morning was so beautiful. Yesterday was a perfect day!

But, Saturday! We had a power outage from 8:30am into the evening. It was a bleak day. With eight people here for a workshop we shivered through the day. The open fire at lunchtime our only reprieve. We had to make a call on Saturday evening whether to proceed with the Sandplay workshop planned for the following day. With no certainty about whether the power would return, we had to postpone.

Such a contrast in the weather between two days! We have rescheduled “Sandplay Therapy - Introduction and Play” to Sunday 14 September.

Why would you come? If you’re curious to explore an alternative approach to wellbeing and healing that supports you to access patterns in your life that are beyond your conscious control.
