Trauma Imprint Repair:
The Enlightened Bodyworker In-Person Intensive
MARCH 14 & 15, 2026
VANCOUVER, BC
This in-person intensive is the embodied expression of The Enlightened Bodyworker: the training container through which we teach Trauma Imprint Repair (TIR).
Trauma Imprint Repair is a gentle, trauma‑informed somatic therapy that works with the body, nervous system & deeper layers of self to support integration and healing. While early imprints often shape our patterns, this work meets clients where they arrive, whether with pain, symptoms, emotional states, beliefs, overwhelm, anxiety, depression or a sense of being stuck.
In this two‑day in‑person training you’ll learn Trauma Imprint Repair through live demonstration, somatic practice and partnered integration allowing the work to be felt, practiced and embodied.
WHY IN PERSON
While the online Enlightened Bodyworker program offers a comprehensive and supportive learning environment, the in‑person intensive adds what can only happen in the room:
Live demonstrations with real‑time nervous system tracking
Guided somatic practices to embody the work as it’s being taught
Partnered practice with supervision and feedback
Co‑regulation, pacing and relational learning that deepen safety and confidence
This format allows Trauma Imprint Repair to be learned in the body, not just the mind.
Trauma is part of being human. When experiences of shock, distress, or overwhelm cannot fully resolve at the time they occur, the body may hold an imprint of the experience.
These imprints can express as chronic pain or physical symptoms, digestive or immune challenges, emotional reactivity or numbness, anxiety, depression, or overwhelm, repeating relational or life patterns and/or limiting core beliefs.
Trauma Imprint Repair works with these expressions directly using verbal dialoguing with the body, attuned presence and nervous‑system‑led pacing, allowing the system to go as slowly as it needs for true integration.
Early experiences (including pre‑birth and birth) may emerge but they are not forced or required. The work follows what the system is ready to reveal.
THE 2 DAY IN-PERSON FLOW
This immersive two-day training follows the core teachings of The Enlightened Bodyworker, experienced live through somatic practice, partnered work and guided demonstration. You’ll be invited to embody the work, develop nervous-system literacy and refine your capacity as a practitioner.
-
Safety, belief systems & practitioner capacity
Day One lays the groundwork for working skillfully with Trauma Imprint Repair in both personal healing and client sessions.
Together we explore how trauma imprints form and persist — not only through early experiences, but through pain, symptoms, core beliefs, overwhelm, anxiety, depression, and chronic patterns clients commonly present with.
You’ll learn how to:
Understand trauma imprints as nervous-system and body-based responses
Work with non-conscious core beliefs and protective strategies
Recognize how perfection, performance, and self-doubt show up in both practitioner and client
Establish safety, pacing, and consent within the body
Listen beneath the story and attune to what the body is communicating
This day supports you in answering:
“What am I really working with when a client comes in and how do I meet it safely?” -
Somatic listening, integration & depth work
Day Two builds upon the foundation by deepening your embodied listening skills and refining how you stay present while facilitating profound healing processes.
We explore how to move out of the mind and into the body’s innate intelligence, while learning to work skillfully with resistance, protection, and survival responses — without forcing, fixing, or bypassing.
You’ll learn how to:
Support integration rather than catharsis
Work with resistance as information, not an obstacle
Stay grounded and regulated while facilitating depth
Engage soul presence as a healing resource
Support wholeness, self-compassion, and alignment in your clients
This day supports you in answering:
“How do I remain embodied, attuned, and resourced while facilitating deep work?”
