MODULE DESCRIPTIONS:
1-5 recommended for those new to the field of Pre and Perinatal Education.
MODULE ONE: ATTACHMENT
This module covers the attachment process from preconception (epigenetics) through age 2. Primary themes are connection/separation. the new understanding of interpersonal neurobiology and the development of emotional and social intelligence through attunement and resonance are central. We will explore different attachment styles in children and adults and delineate specific tools for resourcing, resolving and repatterining attachment trauma in newborns, children and adults. Duration: 8.15

MODULE TWO: PRECONCEPTION AND CONCEPTION JOURNEY
The embryology and imprinting in this period is delineated and related to attachment /self regulation and co-regulation. We will discuss skills of orienting, tracking and titrating autonomic nervous system cycling, modulating therapeutic pace, and recognizing the therapeutic leading edge. Establishing healthy differentiation and connection within a clear boundary structure will be part of the module. To buy module individually. Duration 4.58
MODULE THREE: VAGINAL BIRTH
This module includes the vaginal birth process, birth stages, pelvic types, cranial molding, birth movement patterns and an introduction to complications. We will outline simple yet effective ways for babies, children, and adults to heal from difficult vaginal births. Participants will be encouraged to explore their own birth passage. To buy module individually. Duration 4.20
MODULE FOUR: CHEMICAL AND SURGICAL IMPRINTING DURING BIRTH
A minority of babies in our culture are currently birthed with no chemical or surgical interventions. Chemical imprinting includes prenatal drug exposure, anaesthesia, analgesics, and induction drugs. Surgical imprinting refers to forceps, vacuum extraction, cesarean section, and other prenatal and infant surgery. We will explore the effects of chemical imprinting on the natural birthing process.
As well, Myrna will delineate the effects of surgical and chemical imprinting on prenates and babies’ psyches, movement patterns, physical structure, energy patterns and the central and autonomic nervous systems. Healing tools will be discussed. To buy module individually Duration 4.45
MODULE FIVE: LIFE, DEATH, LOSS and DOUBLE BINDS
Double bind imprints create the most complex dynamics in the pre and perinatal period. They amplify counter transference/transference issues and complications in facilitating families, couples and groups. In this module we will explore ancestral influences on individuation/connection, and merging dynamics (in pre and perinatal work we call this ‘twin dynamics’). Twin embryonic and placental development, and prenatal twin loss are correlated with twin behavior later in life. An extensive home project will be suggested for everyone. Treatment models will be explored. To buy module individually Duration 5.18
For students with Pre and Perinatal Education, modules 6-13 will expand your knowledge base.
MODULE SIX: COUPLES, FROM AN ATTACHMENT PERSPECTIVE
We are just beginning to understand the dynamics of long term couple relationships. The last decade has given us new knowledge about the psychobiological processes and the reciprocity of early developmental relational experiences and our developing brain. Attachment theory and the neuroscience of emotional connection is shedding new light in this mysterious arena. This Module delineates the dynamics of couples interaction and suggests effective tools for working with these issues. To buy module individually. Duration 6.09
MODULE SEVEN: INFANTS AND THEIR FAMILIES
We review epigenetics, and the effects of toxic stress on the prenate and infant in terms of brain and attachment development. Birth practices and their impacts, along with tools for supporting families in resolution are included. This is a really “RICH, BIG” module.
