Rebuilding connections through collective care: TEAO Canada's trauma-informed circles blend somatic practices, psycho-education, and breathwork for healing.
Group processing may be an area deserving of more time in communities, organically through conversations, breathwork and movement, which is how Trauma Informed Care Circle (TEAO) has begun to address trauma care and trauma health in communities.
These circles will incorporate psycho-education, somatic health, and breathwork to get participants in their somatic bodies to begin to process trauma. We are coming together in somatic movement during the group processing circle so that debriefing, trauma care, and systemic care can be processed.
About our Partner
TEAO Canada will hold space for participants, led by Nicole Brown Faulknor — as both a trauma consultant/facilitator and registered psychotherapist. Nicole will explore somatic practices as well, as a way to support rebuilding a relationship with our bodies through collective grief, workspace conflict, and institutional helplessness as a place to be heard (loved) in/from places of systems and hierarchical powerlessness and why your emotional health is our mental health.
