Bouncing Back: Recovering From Stress and Trauma

Neufeld Institute Conference 2022

presents 

Bouncing Back: Recovering From Stress and Trauma

Gordon Neufeld will once again share the keynote responsibilities with Tamara Strijack and Dr. Deborah MacNamara. In his anchor keynote, he will be focusing on the pivotal role of feelings in recovery. In her keynote, Tamara will talk about the role of nature in recovery – in particular, how restoring a connection with the natural world around us can foster learning, healing, and growth. Deborah, in the third keynote, will talk about the role of nurturance in recovery, in particular, the kind of nurturance that can only happen when food is reunited with relationship. Our presenters – all Neufeld Institute Faculty or Facilitators – will tackle the theme of recovery from many angles, expanding on what has been introduced in the keynotes, while adding perspective, stories, inspiration, and practical guidance to spur us on to take the steps needed. Each day will end with Tamara and Deborah joining me in a panel discussion to dialogue about what has been presented in the keynotes and to respond to questions that have been forwarded.
