After a very brief introduction to body psychotherapy work and its connection to schema therapy, this workshop will focus on the practical implementation of body-oriented interventions regarding postures, movements, and breathing for emotional activation and regulation, especially in chair work. Didactically, the workshop will alternate between presentation, demonstration and small group exercises that can be used for self-therapy.
