Healing Trauma Myth Busting - The Experiential Way. With Irene Lyon

“Close your eyes and center yourself.”

“Take a deep cleansing breath.”

“Ground into the Earth.”

All these statements are common in the mind-body and somatic trauma healing worlds and while they seem harmless and even nice in concept, such directives can backfire when one is living with a lot of stored up survival stress (aka: trapped trauma). 

This NEW Drop-In Class will focus on working with the eyes, breath, and body (with a focus on the legs) so one can experience different ways to connect to ourselves and the environment, so we can move towards greater capacity. 

While this class is not about getting a trauma release per se, or to move a shaking or emotional response out, please know that these releases, shakes, emotions, and even memories, can move up and through while doing these basic explorations. 

From my experience, when one practices in a graduated, slow, and polyvagal-informed way —which is how I teach—our system not only lets out what it is ready for, it feels relief, and then that deep breath comes in naturally! 

This will be suitable for beginners who are keen to learn and experience themselves in a deeper biological way. Advanced students are welcome for added practice and review of the basics. 

I hope you join me for this new class!

No problem! This class will be recorded and the video and audio recording will be sent to everyone who registered.

No need for fancy clothes, or props. Just you, your biology, and the environment, together as one. (Oh, and showing up with a curious beginner’s mind!!)

What participants are saying

"At first I thought how boring it was following Irene’s instructions, but I did, and felt a connection to my body I have never experienced before. I never thought something so subtle can be so powerful

I am new to Irene's work and already a lot of childhood trauma has surfaced to be integrated, just by willing to heal."

- MIA

My first time and really enjoyed it. Especially useful in these current changing and unusual times.
So important!

- KAREN

"I absolutely loved the Drop In Class. I really appreciate you Irene, for creating this space and guiding us through such powerful and potent practices."

- JOHNATHON

Irene's teachings are incredibly useful to practice for myself, they are really helping me to get a good regulated nervous system. I like so much the emerging "updated me!"

- SILJA

I really enjoyed the class. The work was very subtle but highly engaging with the after effects of increased physical presence, general relaxation and calmness being felt.

My NS did take the cues and released some "less desirable" sensations later in the day but I knew I was storing some unresolved trauma which is why I took the class. So all-in-all a win for my healing!

- DAVID

"I felt that the class was very helpful for me and learned about how working with my body is being present with how my body is reacting and then adjusting to help those reactions work themselves out instead of letting those reactions take control."

- JOANNE

"Loved it. Still cannot get over how powerful this work is. Blows my mind almost every time. For me, I find it is incredibly spiritual, a pathway to the self, and I always leave with a deeper connection to myself as consciousness. I'm no longer in my head. I remember who I am."
