Maui students who have just attended the Module Two, Practicum and Embryogenesis programs have requested additional learning in September 2006, before and after the much heralded Self-Care Teacher Certification Training. All are welcome to join these completely new classes that increase, by several orders of magnitude, the range of understanding and application of the TARA Approach. Both classes meet from 10-5 in a lovely Kula location. Kula is upcountry Maui, where the air is fresh, clean and cool. Each class is $350, but those registering for both courses with payment in full may deduct $50. To register call 303-499-5427 or 1-800-493-6117. Early registration is recommended. No pre-requisites but familiarity with the TARA Approach is encouraged. To prepare, participants are encouraged to read WE ARE ALL IN SHOCK by TARA Approach founder Stephanie Mines, Ph.D. who is facilitating both courses.All tuition payments are entirely non-refundable but may be transferred to other classes when necessary.

September 6, 2006 ~ Pediatric Treatment: The TARA Approach for Babies, Toddlers and Young Children

The TARA Approach is dedicated to serving the children of today and the children of the future through the prevention and treatment of early shock and trauma. Experience the practicalities and ease of pediatric treatment by witnessing and participating in treatment for children. Students will witness the vital protocols that the TARA Approach offers to serve the young. Documentation of these protocols will support ongoing learning. Each participant will gain confidence and skill in helping children erase traumatic imprinting. This course is of special value to parents, grandparents, therapists, and all care providers for the young.

September 14, 2006 ~ Removing the Primary Obstacles to Early Development: Assessment and Treatment

Overwhelming experience obstructs embryological and fetal development and interferes with crucial post-natal bonding. There are at least twenty vulnerable early sequences during the primal period (preconception through the third year of life) that can be identified. Students in this class will become familiar with these intervals and their thorough resolution through treatment. Precise references to organogenesis (organ development), structural and social engagement implications will be made. Correlations will be emphasized between these vulnerable periods and the map of the body’s sacred sites, the grid for energetic unfolding that is unique to the TARA Approach. Participants will come away from this course confident that they have at their fingertips and on the tips of their tongues the most potent resources for removing the primary obstacles to healthy development.

This course is recommended for all those advocating for healthy development during the primal period as well as students of energy medicine and trauma resolution. Family birthing unit staff, midwives, doulas, expectant families and those considering childbearing will find this class invaluable.

Ride the wave of the breakthrough in learning and awareness that is happening in Maui for TARA students right now. As Val Muroki, who will soon be a TARA Approach teacher, said in a recent e-mail to Stephanie Mines, sent just hours after the Embryogenesis course ended, “What benefits we have been receiving from your presence here! I am sitting at the computer right now typing into a format what I’ve been learning these past several days. This is wonderful!”
