"Nurturing Resilience: Helping Clients Move Forward from Developmental Trauma" by Kathy Kain and Stephen Terrell

Heal the Healer

Many of our students have shared and discovered that attending Transforming Touch® Training as repeat students offers time and space for their healing.  One student stated, "Where can I go for an intensive offering up to 6  Healing Enhancements?  The first time I experienced the training for my clients, the second time was for me and my clients, and all the rest are just for me".   So, no matter why you are coming, all are welcome.  We didn't realize the advantage of repeating at half price and the healing implications for Healers when the program was originally designed, but now with the Hybrid programs, it is truly a healing experience all the way through the training.

Student Feedback


 

"I must say, I was reluctant to sign up for Zoom Training. Using this interface for therapy during the Pandemic in Nova Scotia had made me weary of screen time and yet, the training called to me both personally and professionally and so I signedup. I was very surprised by the power and sensory experience of being right there, sharing the same space, with my triad as we worked with the new protocols. As an observer during a protocol training, I felt a strong pull into the area of thescreen where one of my colleagues was in the 'client' role. Being quite taken back by this, I tested it by bringing my attention to the others that were in their little boxes- the 'Therapist' and the 'Assistant'. I did not feel any energetic pull there.On other occasions while being the 'Therapist' I felt my clients weight drop into my hands- once while holding the head and the other, the kidneys. My clients could also feel my presence with them. I now know that a sense of presence and healing can occur using Transforming Intentional Touch through a virtual platform."  EK from Canada

"I just want to convey my deepest appreciation for the team effort that must have gone into creating this online opportunity.  First the videos came and they were so informative. You took our nervous system into account and prepared them in bite sized pieces. Thank you. I have to be honest and say that i was skeptical about the learning that would take place in our breakout sessions and OMG! It was incredibly eye opening. And some great shifts have taken place for me on day I. I think the work with intentional touch will inform the work I do with transformative touch. Pat yourself on the back for a job well done. It really flowed so smoothly and i know this could of only happened with planning and team effort. I'm so grateful!" ...E from NY

"I far my experience has been smooth and I think the formatting, timing and content are all working really well:) and the team seems to have a great handle on everything.  You are doing a great job, thank you again for putting so much of yourself, love, time and work into making this work accessible. " ...A from Alaska

"And I must say, I was dreading watching all the videos, but they are short, informative, and engaging! Actually quite enjoyable and manageable, thank you!" ...T from Idaho

"I'm so appreciative to the whole team for this incredible training online.  I was very skeptical at first, but was pleasantly surprised at how smooth it all went and what an amazing experience it was! The healing i personally experienced during the 3 day skill building was incredible! The learning via the videos and live online those 3 days was phenomenal!

It was different than learning live, in many ways. However, In some ways, the online practicing was more healing and effective than live.  Altho, i do look forward to going back to Live trainings, i have to say there were advantages to online. I found it extremely helpful to be able to watch the demos as many times as i needed.

You all did a great job in navigating this new format and being there for all of us students even from a distance!! Thank you again for all the work, effort, patience, love and thought you all put into this!" ...M from New York
