5-2-8 Rapid Trauma Release course

5-2-8 Rapid Trauma Release course:
Sept 26th 9:30-12:30pm St. John's
5-2-8 Rapid Trauma Release is taught in a 3- hour workshop, where participants learn about the technique’s origins, learn how to apply it and actually practice it on others in the class.
This is a simple, gentle technique that activates the energy body and the nervous system to release trapped trauma. It is a no- talk technique, not to replace counselling.
Classes have no more than 8 participants per class, as they will practice the technique on one another and it is important that the instructor be able to interact with everyone.
Who is this for?
There are no prerequisites- it is a very useful technique for anyone, from professional practitioners to parents of stressed out children.
My clients have had amazing results with this and the creators of the practice would like to spread it far and wide! Goodness knows we need more trauma release techniques!
Cost: $140+ HST = $161.
(Workshops outside St. John’s - additional $25 at this time to help cover travel expenses. Included.)
Minimum class size: 4
Maximum class size: 8
Registration upon receipt of EMT to [email protected]
No refunds, but you are welcome to sell or give your spot to another person.

WHY LEARN TRAUMA RELEASE
There’s a link between emotions/stress, and physical health. The term “mind-body connection” is commonly used, but in fact emotions and stress trigger a body’s fight, flight or freeze mode. Long term, a continuously activated sympathetic nervous system may contribute to health issues.
In this three (3) hour workshop you will learn an incredibly fast and simple technique to release emotions/stress connected to current and past trauma.*
This effective “no-talk” technique integrates the body’s energetic and nervous systems in order to release entrained trauma. This is energetic bodywork, NOT talk therapy.
For example, say a family member won’t discuss what’s bothering him or her, or it’s not appropriate for you to talk about a personal issue with a client? This technique provides a way to address a person’s emotional issues or stress, without that person having to recall, talk about, or re-experience the cause.
Here’s another example: perhaps a person has been diagnosed with a serious illness and is very afraid. We know healing is facilitated when the body’s nervous system is in parasympathetic mode. This technique can neutralize the fear, thus taking the nervous system out of flight/fight/freeze mode.
We all have “stuff.” You’ll be able to teach another person to apply the technique to you, or apply it on yourself.
The hope of the creators of this technique is that it will spread widely so ANYONE can help family, friends, and clients at little or no cost, and can teach others (see “Instructors section at https://www.mcbridepainclinic.com/rtr-instructors)
*Please note that serious psychological issues—including but not limited to abuse, mental illness, and addiction—should be addressed by a licensed professional.
YOU WILL LEARN TO:
Identify an emotional/traumatic issue to clear;
Activate the energetic body;
Activate the central nervous system;
Apply the Trauma Release procedure to a practice partner, and experience it yourself;
Disconnect energetically from the partner; and,
Clear released emotions from the room.
WHO CAN SIGN UP
Any adult can learn this energetic bodywork technique, no prerequisites. As it releases “stuck” energy, practitioners of healing modalities such as Reiki, Therapeutic Touch, Theta Healing, acupressure & acupuncture, reflexology, Energy Medicine, EMDR, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as Tapping, will be interested in learning this complementary technique. No massage table is required.
WHEN TO USE THE TECHNIQUE
Physical Trauma: The body’s tissues can retain the trauma after falls, accidents, serious injuries, surgeries, etc. Many bodyworkers have had clients who experienced a spontaneous emotional or physical release during a session, and this greatly assisted their physical healing. This technique accomplishes the release of retained trauma, but it is intentional, not luck or coincidence.
Traumatic Life Events: Apply this to people who have been severely stressed by robbery, betrayal, loss of job, war, fire, a destructive weather event, illness or injury of a loved one, or have otherwise have been emotionally stressed by events beyond their control.
Relationships: Apply this technique to the underlying causes of emotions such as rejection, anger, betrayal, guilt, disappointment, grief, worry, and fear.
ORIGIN
This trauma release technique was developed by André Dückers (Netherlands), an osteopath who taught it to Madeline McBride in July 2023 in England. Madeline brought it to North America and enhanced it with the powerful energy system activation taught by Qi-Matic Healing Master-Instructor James Foo (Toronto, Ontario, Canada). The technique is so simple yet so very effective.
Minimum class size of 4 people.
