Grock Counseling and Psychotherapy Reno, Nevada, United States
Session Description: This workshop explores and expands mind-body-spirit methodologies useful to recovery protection by integrating core theories and tools of recovery, yoga, and family therapy. Core family therapy theorists Susan Johnson and Virginia Satir suggest that employing more emotionally-based and experiential techniques strengthens families. Research indicates that the benefits of yoga include increasing one’s acceptance and understanding of self. This ability to discover spiritual and relational connections allow for the embodiment of the recovery philosophy of surrender, acceptance, and responsibility to self and others. The essence of this consciousness, instilled via yogic postures, facilitates relational healing to occur. This workshop allows clinicians to foster somatic linkages and movements that strengthen both the interpersonal aspect of the family and the overall health of the individual while healing post addiction injuries.
