Mindful Trauma-sensitive training

Working with children who are trauma-experienced requires a special set of skills and a deep level of awareness.

Our Mindful Trauma Energy Awareness Masterclass is designed to help professionals working with children develop these skills.

This masterclass training helps professionals use mindfulness and energy awareness to work deeply yet gently with young people affected by trauma.

This course combines trauma knowledge from western education with eastern energy and meditation practices.

If you currently work with young people, the masterclass can add to your profession abilities to help:

  • guide young people affected by trauma to access and use effective mindful self-regulation skills
  • to empower them to trust their insights and develop self compassion
  • guide them to connect and mindfully use their personal strengths and inner resources
  • support them to develop mindful and simple energy skills for self-supporting, healthy choices.

The course gives you access to self-study modules and online group support in order to bring trauma-sensitive mindfulness and, intuitive energy skills, into the restorative practices of your professional work.

The trauma-sensitive Masterclass will teach you skills specifically for young people (up to the age of 18).

“I have found it immensely helpful and there are so many ways it has helped me but also all the children I work with.”

“I loved the training. The mind-body connection was very apparent. As someone whose work has been centered around trauma for the last 3 years – I thought I knew a lot but I have so many takeaways from this course. I would recommend this to others who are looking for person-centered and trauma-sensitive training that will support their work with children and young people. “

In order to teach meditation, it is imperative that you have a personal meditation practice.

This informs your training journey giving you the insight and guidance for your own self support in addition to supporting those that you teach - with/without trauma.  

If you would like support in setting up your personal meditation practice, please arrange a mini consult.

The online sessions are an optional and are not required to secure certification.

The 2-hour online workshop introduces you to a therapeutic approach to combining energy, mindfulness and art.

Monthly group sessions (online) are designed to provide a supportive environment for attendees to process and ask questions. 

Connected Kids professional training is an accredited programme that trains people to become a qualified meditation teacher for young people of all ages (toddlers to teens) and includes working with autism, adhd and SEN.

The Mindful Trauma-sensitive Energy Awareness certification gives you the skills to incorporate this into your current work with young people but is not a qualification to teach as a professional meditation teacher - see CKP 

If you have little/no experience of meditation we do not advise that you take the MTEA - we would strongly advise that you start with our foundation course.  This will give you the basics for self practice/care in addition to sharing meditation skills with your children.

If you have some personal meditation experience we would suggest the CKP and MTEA combo.  This will give you access to our foundation and professional modules and support your journey to MTEA certification.  You will complete the MTEA assessment and provide prerequisites but your focus will be on completing the MTEA, yet saving time and money.
