SUMMARY:Creating Effective Performance\, Precision and Power in Sensory Diets - Live Webinar with Recording
DESCRIPTION:Recording Access Available! \nWhile it appears deceptively simple\, designing sensory diets is not merely following a list of predetermined activities. Creating effective and precise sensory diets requires individualized clinical reasoning based upon an understanding of the unique contributions of the sensory systems\, the defensive-orienting continuum\, sensory modulation\, and arousal regulation. \nJoin Julia Wilbarger and Sheila Frick as they share their unique perspectives on creating and implementing sensory diets from a neurodevelopmental and sensorimotor perspective. Course content will be applicable across practice settings to support individuals of all ages who experience difficulties with sensory processing limiting occupational participation and well-being. This practical\, interactive course will immediately support and reinforce successful application of these concepts in clinical practice and home environments. \nTake an additional discount of $15 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously under the same web-order. \nLocation\nOnline with Recording Option* \nSchedule\nFull Agenda  \nFriday\, January 8\, 2021\, 9:00am – 5:00pm Central Standard Time (CST)\nCheck-in begins at 8:30am CST\nTest begins at approx. 4:30pm CST \nLive Webinar Registration Closes:\nFriday\, January 8th at 6:30am CST \nRecording Registration Closes:\nMonday\, January 11th at 12:00pm CST \nCan’t make it on January 8th?

SUMMARY:Astronaut Training - A Sound Activated Vestibular-Visual Protocol - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Book included with course \nWithout clear information coming from the vestibular system\, sights and sounds in the environment do not make sense – they are only isolated pieces of information disconnected from each other and from the meaningful whole. It is integration of sensory information that holds the key for finding meaning in the world.

SUMMARY:Core Connections - Exploring the Core's Developmental Roots - Live Webinar w/ Recording
DESCRIPTION:Core Connections Case Preview: Supporting our clients from assessment through treatment into meaningful occupational engagement! \nRecording Access Available!  \nCore Concepts in Action Book – vitalsounds.com \nThis live\, online course (with recording access) will provide therapists with a clear description of musculoskeletal make-up of the “core” and will cover the research-based neurophysiological rationale for evaluating core development and function in individuals with sensory processing difficulties. Core function will be explored from its developmental roots in the unfolding of the primary movement patterns (innate reflex development). Two key patterns (Moro and Tonic Labyrinthine) and their connections to core development and self-regulation will be discussed. A specific play-based observation tool that identifies core movement challenges and assists in prioritizing treatment strategies will be presented and explored through movement labs. Along with assessment\, a variety of hands-on treatment strategies will be demonstrated through interactive\, online labs. Video case presentation will be used to show practical clinical applications. \nReceive the Gertie Ball and Power Up Ball for the special rate of $25 when you add the Therapy Ball Bundle to your course registration (S&H fees may apply^). \nTake an additional discount of $15 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously under the same web-order. \nScroll down to Register\nLocation\nOnline with Recording Option* \nSchedule\nFull Agenda\nSaturday\, March 20\, 2021\, 8:30am – 5:00pm Central Daylight Time (CST)\nCheck-in begins at 8:00am CST\nTest begins at approx. 4:30pm CST \nLive Webinar Registration Closes:\nSaturday\, March 20th at 6:30am CST \nRecording Registration Closes:\nMonday\, March 22nd at 5:00pm CST \nCan’t make it on March 20th?

SUMMARY:Finding Safety and Stability: A Trauma-Informed Sensory Motor Approach - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Take an Inside Look at the Course to See the Meaning Behind the Terminology “Safety” and “Stability”.\n \nTherapists and other professionals who work with individuals with sensory and developmental disorders (e.g. autism spectrum\, attention deficit\, learning disabilities) often encounter clients with difficulties related to developmental trauma. Traumatic events may be overt\, such as early loss of a primary caregiver; sexual\, physical or emotional abuse; or domestic\, community and school violence. Trauma may also be innocent\, such as early hospitalization and necessary lifesaving medical procedures in the neonatal intensive care unit. Exposure to adverse life experiences has been shown to increase the likelihood of social\, emotional and developmental delays. Furthermore\, children with developmental delays have a higher risk of being subjected to experiences involving physical\, emotional and sexual abuse. \nThere is a growing understanding\, and accompanying clinical practice that addresses the connection between sensory processing dysfunction and trauma. When an individual cannot adequately process sensory information or traumatic experiences\, the body’s natural defense mechanisms become heightened\, further impacting sensory processing disorder. \nThis live\, one-day\, online course will explore the connections between trauma\, sensory processing and sensory integrative difficulties. Participants will learn how sound and movement are critical in the development of body based\, perceptual motor\, and social emotional foundations for feeling safe in the world and in relationship to another. Treatment labs will explore the basics of auditory and vestibular/somatosensory processing\, and their relationship to arousal\, attachment\, self-regulation\, and learning. Video and case presentations will bring key concepts and treatment strategies to life in this theoretically-based\, yet practical course. \nRegistration includes the Therapy Ball Trio (S&H fees may apply^). \nTake an additional discount of $15 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously under the same web-order. \nScroll down to Register\nLocation\nOnline* \nSchedule\nFull Agenda\nFriday\, March 26\, 2021\, 9:00am – 4:45pm Central Daylight Time\nCheck-in begins at 8:30am CDT\nTest begins at approx. 4:15pm CDT \nLevel\nIntroductory \nInstructor\nSheila M. Frick; OTR/L \nCourse Objectives\nUpon completion of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify the relationship between the inner ear\, arousal\, and affect regulation.\nRecognize the importance of the auditory and vestibular systems in the development of orientation in time and space\, necessary for feeling safe in one’s body and relating to others.\nSelect three therapeutic activities that activate the vestibular and/or auditory systems to regulate arousal\, build somatic resources\, and relate.\nRecognize when patterns of defense are interfering with function and daily life.\nList three body-based strategies to decrease tension patterns and regulate arousal.\n\n\nScroll down to “Tickets” to register\n\n		\n		Continuing Ed \n		\n \nVital Links is an AOTA approved provider of continuing education.

SUMMARY:Clinical Conversation - Exploring Self-Regulation & Powerfully You Curriculum
DESCRIPTION:Vital Links is offering a free live webinar for therapists to join in a discussion with Sheila Frick and the developers of Powerfully You™\, Amy Lewis\, OTR/L and Heather Spann\, OTR/L.\nThe development of and capacity for arousal regulation is multifaceted.

Starting with a brief discussion on arousal and self-regulation\, Sheila\, Amy\, and Heather will discuss the development of Powerfully You\, a social emotional learning curriculum designed to foster self-regulation. Paramount to the Powerfully You curriculum are a range of lessons designed to teach key concepts and terminology\, including Body Sensing\, Body Batter\, Body Activation\, and more.

SUMMARY:Finding Safety and Stability: A Trauma-Informed Sensory Motor Approach - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Take an Inside Look at the Course: Understanding the Complexities of Trauma and Sensory Integration.\n \nAvailable as a Recording! \nTherapists and other professionals who work with individuals with sensory and developmental disorders (e.g. autism spectrum\, attention deficit\, learning disabilities) often encounter clients with difficulties related to developmental trauma. Traumatic events may be overt\, such as early loss of a primary caregiver; sexual\, physical or emotional abuse; or domestic\, community and school violence. Trauma may also be innocent\, such as early hospitalization and necessary lifesaving medical procedures in the neonatal intensive care unit. Exposure to adverse life experiences has been shown to increase the likelihood of social\, emotional and developmental delays. Furthermore\, children with developmental delays have a higher risk of being subjected to experiences involving physical\, emotional and sexual abuse. \nThere is a growing understanding\, and accompanying clinical practice that addresses the connection between sensory processing dysfunction and trauma. When an individual cannot adequately process sensory information or traumatic experiences\, the body’s natural defense mechanisms become heightened\, further impacting sensory processing disorder. \nThis live\, one-day\, online course will explore the connections between trauma\, sensory processing and sensory integrative difficulties. Participants will learn how sound and movement are critical in the development of body based\, perceptual motor\, and social emotional foundations for feeling safe in the world and in relationship to another. Treatment labs will explore the basics of auditory and vestibular/somatosensory processing\, and their relationship to arousal\, attachment\, self-regulation\, and learning. Video and case presentations will bring key concepts and treatment strategies to life in this theoretically-based\, yet practical course. \nRegistration includes the Therapy Ball Trio (S&H fees may apply^). \nTake an additional discount of $15 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously under the same web-order. \nScroll down to Register\nLocation\nOnline* \nSchedule\nFull Agenda\nSunday\, May 23\, 2021\, 9:00am – 4:45pm Central Daylight Time\nCheck-in begins at 8:30am CDT\nTest begins at approx. 4:15pm CDT \nLive Webinar Registration Closes:\nSunday\, May 23rd at 6:30am CDT \nRecording Registration Closes:\nMonday\, May 24th at 5:00pm CDT \nCan’t make it on May 23rd?

SUMMARY:Embodied Sensation: Harnessing the Power of Interoception and Proprioception
DESCRIPTION:Join Sheila Frick for her New Course!\n \nRecording Access Available! \nProprioception and interoception are frequently discussed within the field of occupational therapy to describe one’s awareness of their internal body signals. For individuals who experience difficulties with sensory modulation and sensory processing\, inadequate interoceptive and proprioceptive awareness may contribute to struggles with body awareness\, adaptable states of arousal\, motor control\, and regulation and awareness of homeostatic functions. Effective treatment strategies aim to modulate sensation\, and support proprioceptive and interoceptive balance within the context of meaningful occupational participation. \nDrawing from current science\, this course will explore the neurological and anatomical foundations for proprioception\, interoception\, and vestibular processing. Practical application and discussions will illuminate how these sensations play a key role in self-sensing\, body mapping for enhanced body scheme\, and self-regulation. Therapists will leave this course with a comprehensive understanding of these key therapeutic concepts\, along with a variety of practical and precise therapeutic activities that can be implemented across environments. \nScroll down to Register\nLocation\nOnline with Recording Option* \nSchedule\nFull Agenda\nWednesday\, July 14\, 2021\, 9:00am – 12:45pm Central Daylight Time (CDT)\nCheck-in begins at 8:30am CDT\nTest begins at approx. 12:15pm CDT \nLive Webinar Registration Closes:\nWednesday\, July 14th at 6:30am CDT \nRecording Registration Closes:\nThursday\, July 15th at 5:00pm CDT \nCan’t make it on July 14th?
