Ask the Experts Monthly Series with Maggie Phillips, PhD Maggie Phillips is offering a series of teleseminars/webinars with leading experts in the areas of pain, stress, anxiety, and trauma. Maggie and the guest speaker present immediately usable treatment strategies from their areas of expertise. For the last 30 minutes of the teleseminar/webinar, the presenters take live questions by telephone or via internet messaging. All teleseminars offer a way to submit questions in advance and recordings of the live event, so live attendance is not required. The series began in early 2008 and has continued with the following experts:

25-26 September, 2010 This workshop is designed to teach both the art and science of working with the wisdom and resources of the body to heal mind-body symptoms and health problems while reversing the effects of psychological and physical trauma. The model of Somatic Experiencing® (SE), based on the study of resiliency responses of animals and humans to threat, is used as a foundational method to provide gentle yet powerful interventions that can be incorporated into any practice setting. Participants will learn how Somatic Experiencing® techniques can be used to detect and resolve constriction in the body and disregulation of the nervous system that contributes to a wide spectrum of clinical, medical, and learning problems. Presentations will address ways to empower clients through contact with their bodies' natural resources, strategies for reducing fear and anxiety, and techniques for rapid relief of acute and long-term stress reactions. The foundational skill of mindfulness is used to deepen effective awareness of body experiences. Through mindful attention, we learn to open to the ever- changing stream of sensations without resistance or judgment in order to transform our reactivity to uncomfortable emotions and sensations. This workshop presents mindfulness based and Somatic Experiencing® (SE) strategies to deepen safety and compassion, ways to bring gentle attention to body experience, and help with reclaiming our resiliency and spirit. The format includes experiential exercises, brief dyad practice, and demonstrations. Topic areas for discussion will include treatment of anxiety, panic, and depression; persistent emotional and physical pain including headache, arthritis, back pain; autoimmune problems such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and lupus; and conflicts related to eating disorders and distortions of body image and awareness. We will explore the interface between trauma and pain; the neurobiology of attachment trauma and other post-traumatic phenomena; relevant psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) research, and the importance of teaching self-regulation. 2-3 October, 2010 This is a unique experience taught at intermediate and advanced levels. A maximum of 12 participants will be accepted. Prerequisite requirements include 100 hours of past training in clinical, Ericksonian, and/or medical hypnosis, and completion of at least the foundations (beginning) level in Ego-State Therapy. This workshop will focus on ego-state therapy as a comprehensive method to repair post-traumatic fragmentation, dissociative and attachment difficulties, and intractable mindbody symptoms including anxiety, depression, health issues, and chronic and atypical pain. Participants will review hypnotic and nonhypnotic techniques and methods useful for work with ego states connected with various post-traumatic symptoms, including malevolent and destructive states, techniques for activating internal resources through ego strengthening, and ways of promoting integration. The format includes lecture, video and live demonstrations, supervised practice sessions, and case consultation (which can be videotaped). 8-10 October, 2010 This is an exciting conference with many experts from the US, Germany, the UK, and other countries participating in the faculty. Come join us to learn exciting new energy innovations against the autumn background of quaint Heidelberg. 16-17 October, 2010 This workshop will help professionals discover and practice various effective techniques, including EMDR, which can expand heart coherence as the center of healing for themselves and their clients. The format includes live and video demonstration, clinical case consultation, and experiential exercises. Recent neuroscience has identified evidence that heart coherence and intelligence are essential to the healing process. Studies conducted by the Institute of HeartMath™ and other researchers have demonstrated that the energy field of the heart is 60 times larger and more than 500 times stronger than that of the brain, and that the heart sends many more messages to the brain than the brain does to the heart. This workshop will teach participants how to develop and apply elements of heart intelligence and coherence to help heal PTSD, pain, depression, anxiety and panic, and stress reactions including intrusive flashbacks, rapid cycling negative thoughts, and sleep disturbances. A variety of all-natural techniques will be presented and practiced to expand heart coherence including heart-based breathing. Special mindfulness approaches that cultivate self-acceptance, love and forgiveness and specific self-regulation skills will also be included. EMDR is emphasized as a method of extending and deepening these practices. We will review research that demonstrates how heart-felt positive emotions like love, compassion, and gratitude, create coherence and harmonious heart rhythms, which are indicators of cardiovascular efficiency and nervous system balance. We will also discuss how chronic toxic emotions such as irritation, anger, anxiety or frustration, on the other hand, can create a series of stress reactions, which can compromise the immune system, strain the heart and other organs, and eventually lead to serious health problems. 9-12 December, 2010
