SCHEMAS AND WELLBEING: CULTIVATING GREATER LEVELS OF CONNECTION AND
OPTIMISM
with Dr. Tracey Hunter & Dr. Rachel Wheeler
Pullman Hyde Park, Sydney
Friday 15 - Saturday 16 October 2021
10:00am - 5:00pm
Places are limited to 25
This 2-day event will explore the underlying early schemas or wounds
that block people from activating greater levels of connection and
optimism in their lives.
The 2-day workshop is based on the Schema Therapy model and involves
the delivery of cognitive and emotion-focused techniques relevant to
working with clients also seeking assistance with overcoming barriers
to greater self-worth, healthy relationships and a positive outlook in
life. No previous experience in Schema Therapy is necessary, as this
workshop is focused on self-reflection and insight development rather
than strategies and therapy skills.
This workshop has a strong focus on self-reflection and personal
growth and is highly suited for health professionals and therapists
who embrace the qualities of courage, vulnerability and the power of
shared stories.
The schemas that we will be exploring that block connection and
optimism are:
CONNECTION - SCHEMAS TO HEAL:
- Emotional Deprivation
- Emotional Inhibition
- Defectiveness/Shame
- Social Isolation/Alienation
OPTIMISM - SCHEMAS TO HEAL:
- Abandonment/Instability
- Mistrust/Abuse
- Negativity/Pessimism
- Vulnerability to Harm/Illness
The workshop will outline a 5-step process based on cognitive,
behavioural and emotion-focused strategies that support clients and
practitioners alike to activate Connection and Optimism, therefore
providing healing pathways from depression, anxiety, relationship
issues and blocks in self-worth and inner strength.
THE BENEFITS OF ACTIVATING CONNECTION:
When we embody Connection in our day-to-day life, we can expect some
or all of these outcomes:
- We feel worthy of love and connection
- We feel like we deserve to have our needs heard and taken on board
in our relationships with others
- We are free of ideas of perfectionism and achievement being markers
of self-worth, and free ourselves from shame
- We validate our own emotional experience and feel certain about how
we feel, even if its painful or it is not fully understood by others
- We are better able to manage the intensity of our emotions because
we are willing and able to self-soothe when others may dismiss or
minimise our feelings
- We feel connected within our community, and appreciate good
friendships and social connections with like-minded people
THE BENEFITS OF ACTIVATING OPTIMISM:
When we embody Optimism in our day-to-day life, we can expect some or
all of these outcomes:
- We feel positive about our lives on the whole, and we look forward
to our future
- We trust in our capacity to develop secure relationships with others
and communicate our needs and boundaries in a way that will eventually
be respected and understood
- We are committed to creating stability in our lives, by being clear
with others about what causes our own feelings of insecurity and
instability
- We know how to communicate our boundaries to others, so we are less
fearful of betrayal and less reactive to temporary disconnection in
our close relationships
- We allow ourselves to feel excited in anticipation of future events
and share our joy, even in the face of possible disappointment
- We have a deep sense of trust in our bodys ability to heal itself
and strive towards optimal health, and the regenerative aspect of life
cycles and the natural world
The aim of this workshop is to:
A. Enhance your own emotional health and wellbeing
B. Develop deep insight into your own blocks to greater wellbeing
C. Provide a clear process based on an evidence-based model - Schema
Therapy - to assist your clients who are also wanting to work towards
greater wellbeing and emotional health and heal from past wounds and
emotional blocks
