What This Program Is About
"The Technology for your Psychology" Program
Tools and techniques are given to clinicians that can be used and recommend for their patients as part of a Comprehensive Lifestyle Medicine Approach. During a traumatic experience, the body goes through profound changes. We will start the discussion on how to create a clear and understanding mind & body for ( the clinicians to engage their clients.) and enables the healthcare professional to have more success with their most challenging clients.
Overview
This program provides evidence-based and practical methods to improve emotional Intelligence & facilitate well-being and improve stress responses in the health professional's settings. There are many challenging situations in dealing with patients that confront the health care professional on a regular basis These techniques can reduce an emotional uproar and provide a "calm in the storm" presence.
This CE-CEU program provides tools (technology) for accessing and beginning to understand the internal landscape. The participants will learn methods to evaluate their own habitual responses, negative conditioning, and survival skills. They will be assisted in the self-study of beliefs, fears, reactions and desires that are self-limiting and they will identify "masks" and recognize new ways to protect themselves and not only "survive" but "thrive" in the world.
Patients experience various levels of trauma which have many physical effects.
Dr. Bessel A Van der Kolk, a clinical psychiatrist and founder of the Trauma Center at Brookline MA. states "it's important to move beyond simply talking ... feeling that somebody understands your suffering is enormously comforting but it doesn't make your body know that you are safe. The real method is "resetting your physiology." MRI brain scan breakthroughs enable scientists to look at how the brain functions in real time, other than just taking a still photograph. Harvard Research on Mindfulness Meditation shows that the medial prefrontal cortex shuts down during stress and lights up during meditation. Dr. Van der Kolk recommends yoga and breath work as a body-based therapy for releasing trauma.
The workshop includes in-depth training in Negative Mind, Positive Mind, Neutral Mind as we examine how your mind thinks, feels and acts differently in each of these three. The mind and its faculties it can be dangerous that you can do things that are delusional, imaginative and unintentional and equally, it is so beneficial that you can create things. If there is no relationship between you and your mind then there is no consolidated guidance and you will be running off of reactions. The mind in its state colors all your actions and thoughts. We will show techniques for breathing to calm the mind, Body Movements, Videos, Worksheets, and Discussion.

"The Technology for your Psychology"
I. Introduction: Mental approaches to improve the perception of the patients /clinician relationship Challenging situations that may confront the healthcare professional on a regular basis. Handling a complaint,
giving an unwelcome suggestion etc....
A. How to handle interpersonal conflict: Stories remind us of what it is that we value and connect us to our values.
The story that a clinician/patient tells can be affected by Beliefs, Fears, and Emotions which can impair the perception of anyone by the pattern of thinking that is learned in a childhood or adolescence years. How an individual's perception is affected is according to their conditioning of the mind and the emotions The mind and its faculties can be dangerous that you can do things that are delusional, imaginative and unintentional, and equally, it is so beneficial that you can create things. Participants bring awareness how an incident happens how an individual perceives the incidents by their own beliefs and how the individual views the clinician/ patient /client relationship in a negative way or positive way.
Healthcare professionals will learn several strategies for communicating as they learn how to communicate more effectively by understanding how their story has evolved by seeing the connections of how the story is formed. Research indicates that the most challenging of people are those who have not understood how their irrational thinking came into existence.
This course is not an intellectual debate, but an intelligent confrontation with your own experience,
