Presentation Title:

Harnessing self-talk and somatic awareness in trauma recovery: A mind-body model for mental wellness

Abstract

Mental health challenges such as anxiety, burnout, and trauma-related dysregulation often stem from unaddressed internal narratives and the body’s retained stress patterns. This presentation explores a holistic intervention model focused on self-talk reframing and somatic awareness, drawing from techniques used in coaching, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and trauma-sensitive mindfulness. As a Registered Nurse and Certified Success Coach with over 35 years of experience, Carolyn Cahn delivers an interactive session that demonstrates how language, posture, and eye movement patterns can be utilized to shift emotional states and release unresolved stress. These techniques are especially beneficial for individuals with ADHD, caregivers experiencing emotional fatigue, and those seeking non-pharmacological tools for nervous system regulation. Participants will engage in guided practices rooted in NLP and IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) and leave with a personal resilience framework they can apply in therapeutic, educational, or community settings. Carolyn’s methods bridge clinical and coaching practices, offering a practical approach for integrating mind-body tools into modern mental health care. This session is suitable for psychologists, counselors, coaches, educators, and behavioral health professionals seeking new strategies for trauma recovery and personal transformation.
