— Attendee, The Voyage with Lou Lebentz, 2024
Welcome to The Voyage ~ an informative, interactive, and inspirational trauma recovery seminar brought to you by Lou Lebentz and SilverBell Global.
Navigating the waves of healing requires skill. In The Voyage, participants learn tools to stay present in the body, acknowledge emotions, and identify past wounds. We’ll dive into psycho-education on the impact of trauma on the mind and body and explore the three essential stages of recovery. Under Lou's guidance, we’ll safely “swim in the sea" of the somatic body system and "land in the sand" of personal growth and recovery.
Discover the three essential stages necessary when working with clients on a recovery journey from trauma and addiction. Learn from a world-class expert in the field with impressive clinical skills alongside innovative insights, metaphorical teaching methods and Lou’s exceptional storytelling ability. Come away with more clarity and even more resources to work with clients with both trauma and addiction from a far more integrated holistic and trauma-informed paradigm.
A highly respected and globally renowned therapist, trauma clinician, and speaker, Lou Lebentz has worked in recovery for over 20 years and is the creator of "The Voyage,” a revolutionary online trauma treatment and training program. Lou is the creator and founder of “Trauma Thrivers,” a thriving Facebook community and podcast for those interested in trauma healing. Lou started her journey at the Priory Hospital, where she worked for over a decade. Lou’s lifelong mission is to ensure people, groups, and organizations become trauma-informed.
Morning - Expand the Mind - Information
The journey starts with self-awareness and understanding. Dive into psychoeducation, grounding techniques, and essential stabilisation practices. Uncover the layers beneath mental health labels and recognise the profound impact of trauma on diverse presentations. Equip yourself with the tools to help clients "land in the sand" of their recovery and open the aperture of their minds.
Pre and Post Lunch - Befriend the Body - Integration
Navigating the waves of healing requires skill. Learn how to help others stay present in the body, acknowledge emotions, and identify past wounds. Master the craft of creating new narratives whilst leaving behind survival strategies that no longer serve. Help clients build a robust self-care routine and let go of self-defeating habits, fostering an inner relationship of trust, respect and compassion. This stage enables people to begin to safely “swim in the sea" of their somatic system.
Mid-Afternoon - Touch the Soul - Inspiration
Cast your gaze to the horizon and envisage the destination. The Voyage® recognises the importance of a vision, a higher purpose, and a loving community to help align people to the often missing element - a deeper connection to their soul. Imagination becomes a compass as you help others to weave dreams, goals, and hopes into the fabric of transformation. Discover aspirations and missions as every win is celebrated along the way, acknowledging the progress achieved and becoming able to "soar in the sky" of even greater self-development and growth.
The day will span a voyage through self-discovery, personal growth and innovative insight across an immersive, enlightening and profoundly inspirational day.
The day’s schedule will be as follows:
We welcome arrivals from 8:00 AM
Lou’s session will begin at 9: AM and will end at 5:00 PM
Lunch will be served 12:45 - 1:30 PM
After having experienced this learning deeply in person, our hope is that you share it with clients (or loved ones) in your life.
