Brain Synchronization Therapy (BST) is based on South American Toltec shamanic traditions and Andine energy practices. Participants may find it to be similar to components of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), Eye Movement Integration Therapy (EMI), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), andBrainspotting. BST is designed to be a safe and gradual way of processing trauma to minimize the possibility of the client becoming overwhelmed by the process of resolving past traumas.
The purpose of the training is to offer an opportunity for participants to become competent in the provision of BST. Training will include hands-on learning and practical application to prepare participants to use BST on themselves and select others. BST is a protocol for trauma therapy that can be delivered by a licensedprofessional or by an unlicensed paraprofessional. The only prerequisite for training is an openness to energy psychology and a desire to help people heal from trauma. People who may find this training beneficial include registered nurses, physicians, psychologists, social workers, marriage and family therapists, licensed addictioncounselors, certified addiction counselors, licensed professional counselors, unit staff, etc.
