Since 1994, the TARA (Tools for Awakening Resources and
Awareness) Approach has offered an innovative method of restoring balance to
the human nervous system following overwhelming trauma. Clinically tested and
effective for all ages and all demographics, the TARA Approach is a fusion of
Eastern and Western medicines that synchronizes ancient and contemporary
healthcare wisdom. It incorporates applied touch with assessment and dialogue
skills organized to maximize human potential and restore equanimity.
The TARA approach is used by healers and educators in all
fields including parents, social workers, healthcare providers of all kinds,
substance abuse counselors, crisis workers, ministers, and anyone committed to
healing. Professionals often combine the TARA Approach with other modalities
such as massage, cranial sacral therapy and physical therapy, psychotherapy,
nursing, other energy medicine treatments, and traditional Western medicine.
In this professional training, TARA approach founder, Stephanie Mines introduces her method
for the treatment of shock and trauma. Join Dr. Mines to learn how to
differentiate sympathetic from parasympathetic nervous system dominances and
practice skills to bring these dominances into equilibrium.
Discover how to strengthen immune function by
recalibrating adrenal responses that have been habituated by past trauma and
identify and awaken essential resources to deactivate traumatic repetition.
Open new neurological pathways for self-regulation. Take the first steps in
cultivating a self-care practice and learn how to transmit it to others.
Experience how trauma is healed in community and become a
sustainable health leader. Health is the thread that weaves through every
consequence of the climate change that is rapidly accelerating globally. To
meet this challenge, Dr. Mines has adapted her paradigm to meet the healthcare
needs of vulnerable populations and also to develop sustainable health
leadership.
Join Dr. Mines for an experiential, inspirational,
community-oriented and highly personalized workshop. Step with confidence into
the present with your unique skill set. Dr. Mines meets her students where they
are and imparts her faith and passion in human resilience through the
resolution of past traumas as a path from I to We.
Stephanie Mines is a neuropsychologist whose unique
understanding comes from her academic research as well as her extensive work in
the field. Her stories of personal transformation have led many listeners to
become deeply committed to the healing journey. Dr. Mines understands shock
from every conceivable perspective. She has investigated it as a survivor, a
professional, a healthcare provider, and as a trainer of staffs of institutions
and agencies.
Her blend of Western and Eastern modalities offers the
best of both paradigms. She is devoted to ending the lineage of shock and trauma
for individuals and the world. To this end she has developed the TARA Approach
for the Resolution of Shock and Trauma, which is taught internationally and is
a clinically tested comprehensive treatment design.
