More about this session:
In this interactive workshop, participants will learn about the work of Capacitar and practice several brain-body modalities that have been shown to be highly effective in promoting resilience, healing and well-being. Capacitar uses a popular education approach to provide simple tools that can be quickly learned and shared with others. Capacitar International works in over 40 countries with adults, children, families and communities in a wide range of settings including domestic violence shelters, schools, mental health services and other community services. These practices are also used by organizations to address vicarious trauma.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe two core values of Capacitar's work in settings and regions of high stress, violence and poverty.
- Give two examples of how Capacitar methods help to calm the brain, reduce stress and promote resilience.
- Demonstrate three Capacitar methods found to be effective for managing stress and promoting resilience and healing.
