SUMMARY:Embodied Sensation: Harnessing the Power of Interoception and Proprioception- Live w/ Recording
DESCRIPTION:Updated Course: Expanded Content for One-Day of Learning!\nRecording Access Available! \nProprioception and interoception are frequently discussed within the field of occupational therapy to describe one’s awareness of their body position relative to the world around them and internal signals. For individuals who experience difficulties with sensory modulation and sensory processing\, inadequate interoceptive and proprioceptive awareness may contribute to struggles with body awareness\, breath regulation\, adaptable states of arousal\, organized movement and praxis\, and regulation and awareness of homeostatic functions and affective emotion. 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-referencing and body mapping for enhanced sense of our physical and emotional self. 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\nFriday\, March 3\, 2023\, 9:00am – 4:45pm Central Standard Time (CST)\nCheck-in begins at 8:30am CST\nTest begins at approx. 4:15pm CST \nLive Webinar Registration Closes:\nFriday\, March 3rd at 7:30am CST \nRecording Registration Closes:\nTuesday\, March 7th at 10:00am CST \nCan’t make it on March 3rd?
