Sexual trauma and abuse can wound us deeply, leaving scars that are physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual. Fortunately we are endowed with innate mechanisms that allow us to move through trauma. But why doesn't our natural healing process work more naturally for us? In part because we're unaccustomed to the sensations of healing; they feel alien to us. We don't realize the signals our body and mind express in attempting to return to balance and wholeness. When we experience the intense energy associated with survival we may be intimidated by its raw power. In addition, because of shame and self-blame we may shut down and retreat further or act out promiscuously. Past negative messages that have become habitual beliefs as well as unconscious urges to reenact trauma may also play a part in blocking healing. However, as we learn to own our instinctual power and surrender to certain subtle energies we find that they can transform to feelings of empowerment, ecstasy and oneness. In this workshop we will explore together tools we may use to harness and transform the energies of trauma. Activities include guided group awareness exercises, Yoga, individual work, and video material.

This one day intensive workshop is designed for all health professionals who are interested in the treatment of acute and chronic mindbody syndromes related to organic, traumatic, developmental, and situational stresses. The leaders will discuss the latest neurophysiologic advances integrated with recent psychotherapeutic and hypnotic innovations. Special emphasis is given to patients who present with perplexing symptoms which appear refractory to treatment, and to rapid hypnotic approaches that can stimulate significant positive responses for them. Topic areas include methods which facilitate management of a wide range of hard to treat somatic conditions, including fibromyalgia, asthma, migraines, chronic fatigue syndrome, panic disorder, phobia, anxiety, and autoimmune disease. Clinical discussion will include the interface of mindbody symptoms with personality disorders, dissociative diagnoses, organic conditions, addictions, and complicated transference-countertransference reactions. Participants are invited to discuss their most challenging clinical cases. Format includes lecture, demonstration, and brief practicum.

Telephone Course Reversing Chronic Pain: 10 Steps to Lasting Relief
Are you a chronic pain sufferer looking for relief beyond what you've been able to achieve through the effects of medications, physical therapy, and other common interventions used to treat pain? Have you struggled with pain for more than a year and believe you have gone as far as you can with the treatments you've received so far? Have you been told that you need to learn to "live with your pain" because for you it will always be a chronic condition?
My new approach may be just what you've been searching for! As a psychologist who has specialized in the treatment of chronic stress conditions during 30 years of clinical practice, I have developed a brief, intensive treatment model that has reversed the course of chronic pain successfully for many of my patients. The cost is far below what you might pay for either psychotherapy or medical treatments.

Reversing the Course of Chronic Pain
The Psychology of Health, Immunity and Disease Conference
(December 7-10, 2005)
Hilton Head, South Carolina

Tel: 1-800-743-2226 (outside the US call: 860-456-1153)
Although 1 in 3 adults over 50 are affected significantly by pain, standard treatments for chronic pain often fail because they center on medications that over-treat, under-treat, or further complicate the pain problem. This workshop will help participants learn to identify and resolve specific types of inner conflicts related to pain, assist in relieving distress related to past traumatic stress that is often held in the body as a constriction, and treat imbalances related to the body's fight/flight response. Methods will be drawn from hypnotic, Somatic Experiencing® , and Energy Psychology traditions.
