This course provides instruction and practice in the fundamental skills of teaching interoceptive awareness skills to your clients. Interoception involves sensory information or cues that facilitate regulation of the body, many of which are unconscious. Interoceptive awareness is conscious awareness of sensory experience from inside the body, including the following types of examples: the movement of the diaphragm when we breath, the experience of an ache when a tight muscle is massaged, the experience of sadness that accompanies the release of muscle tension in the back. Interoceptive awareness is understood to be critical for nervous system and emotion regulation. Research has shown that people with high levels of experiential avoidance and stress, chronic pain, and mental health disorders have more difficulty processing sensory information compared to people who do not have such struggles. The MABT approach helps to develop and increase capacity for interoceptive awareness to improve self-awareness, care and emotion regulation. An established protocol from MABT research will be used as a methodology for bringing this work into your practice. Students in this program will learn to be in presence, to assess presence in their clients, and to teach a sequential process for introducing and deepening the client's capacity for internal body/interoceptive awareness. Students practice activities to develop their communication skills, intuition, clinical reasoning and ability to perceive the client's overall learning process. Clinical vignettes and research results using this evidenced-based approach will also be presented. Students receive a certificate of completion upon satisfying the requirements of the program. This training consists of 6 days of class (46 clock hours).
