Healing Community Trauma: How to do Acupuncture in the Field and Create Community Service Clinics after Traumatic Events, with Acupuncturists Without Borders
Saturday & Sunday, September 8-9, 2018 • 9:00 – 5:30
This entertaining and highly experiential 2-day training prepares acupuncturists to provide trauma relief and recovery programs in their own communities as well as abroad. Students and non-acupuncturist health professionals are also invited to attend. Healing Community Trauma strengthens the clinical, organizing and leadership skills that acupuncturists and other professionals need to establish disaster relief efforts and community service clinics for people affected by trauma. Our class teaches participants how to establish mobile clinics onsite after disasters and community service clinics for veterans, active military and their families, as well as other local populations. It also prepares participants to develop and work in international community service clinics that are part of World Healing Exchange trips and other AWB-affiliated international programs.

Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Training
Beginning 2: October 19-22, 2018, with Linda Stelte, M.Ed, SEP, CCC
Intermediate 2: November 2-5, 2018, with Berns Galloway, M.Ed, SEP, CCC
This training, developed by Dr. Peter Levine, offers participants the opportunity to learn a physiologically based approach to trauma resolution. Our bodies house the results of nervous system overwhelm – trauma, and the renegotiation of the trauma comes from attending to the nervous system processes. Over the total of eight modules that this training offers, you will learn to detect and respond to the physiological and psychological effects of the disorganization of our nervous systems.
