Embodied, Personal, and Relational Healing
An Innovative Approach
Recorded Saturday 25 February 2022
With Judith Blackstone
CPD Credits: 3 hours
Although many psychoanalysts observe that trauma has somatosensory components such as freezing, numbing parts of the body or fragmentation between affect and cognition, it is less recognised that the mind/body can become integrated when these dissociated organisations of self/other experience are brought to awareness and relinquished.
In this way, psychological health progresses toward what Winnicott called “indwelling” – an experience of being present and in contact with oneself within one’s whole body.

In this workshop, Judith will teach the main practices of the ‘Realization Process’ for inhabiting the internal space of the body. These practices uncover an undivided dimension of fundamental consciousness that is experienced as the authentic ground of one’s being, pervading all of one’s internal and external experience as a unity. Pervading one’s body, fundamental consciousness is the basis of our internal wholeness: our ability to think, feel, sense and perceive at the same time. Permeating our body and environment it is the basis our deepened contact with other people and the world around us. We are able to enjoy enhanced intimacy with other people without losing inward contact with ourselves. We are also able to discern more clearly and release more accurately those trauma-based rigidities in the body that limit our contact with ourselves and others. We shall see how this integrated state can be reached with the help of this therapeutic approach.
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) credits for 3 hours are available as part of the course fee. You will need to fill out an evaluation form and pass a multiple choice questionnaire related to the content in order to receive your certificate.
