Since receiving TARA Approach treatments and attending the TARA Family Clinics Sophie reaches out so beautifully to me and others and her hands are so calm."

TARA Approach Family Clinic programs are unique opportunities for family members to address their individual needs and family dynamics as a whole. Parents are invited to learn and use all aspects of the TARA Approach. An applied touch system for nervous system balance (Jin Shin TARA) is provided along with language geared for children and compassionate and empathic eye-contact titrated to the child's tolerance. Play and story-telling are woven into the fabric of healing.
 
Family Clinic programs are designed to encourage parenting from within and resolve pre and perinatal issues. We welcome families with sensory needs and neurodiversity.
 
Clinics are facilitated by Stephanie Mines, Ph.D. and Darcy Kamin, RN, Maternal Child Health Nurse, Certified Lactation Consultant, Parent Educator and Advanced TARA Approach Practitioner.

*NEW* Stimulating Questions for Therapeutic Dialogue handbook now available
Born from the Therapeutic Dialogue course being held in Gijon this May, ASKING STIMULATING QUESTIONS: CLUES FOR SOMATIC THERAPISTS is a handbook where
 
Butterfly"Stimulating questions are intended to empower by providing a model of self-inquiry. The therapist doesn't answer the questions but rather posits awareness and self-responsibility. In this way the healing process is demystified and the client owns their own journey"
 
(Introduction, page 1).
 
Health projects are organized alphabetically from Adrenals to Wrists with suggestions on how to posit pointed and specific questions that go to the core of causation. This guidebook is intended to inspire all therapists and healthcare professionals with one or two sentences that immediately ignite the consciousnesspositive side of the miraculous mind-body connection.
The TARA Approach is pleased to also add this handbook to our bookstore, and can be purchased for $15.00 plus shipping.  Orders can be placed at: 1-800-493-6117          domproject@tara-approach.org  or www.tara-approach.org.
UPCOMING SENSORY COURSE IN OKLAHOMA
The TARA APPROACH TO SENSORY INTEGRATION:
 APPLIED TOUCH AND LIMBIC STIMULATION
JULY 30, 2010
10 AM - 5 PM
Edmond, Oklahoma, $150*
 
*REGISTRATION FOR THIS CLASS HAS ALREADY BEGUN AND SPACE IS LIMITED. EARLY REGISTER AS SOON AS YOU CAN TO ASSURE YOUR PLACE!
 
Butterfly This course introduces CARE PROVIDERS AND PARENTS to how the nervous system can be balanced using simple applied touch interventions and limbic stimulation. Care providers serving a pediatric population will be taught games that make applied touch fun, with an eye not only to treatment by the clinician but also to encourage replication by other service providers such as teachers and aides. Self-motivated children can do these treatments on their own. There are no contraindications.

Participants will also learn and practice dialogue geared toward attunement or limbic stimulation. This is dialogue specifically designed to awaken dormant neurotransmitters and limbic brain structures necessary to enhance sensory integration. While the emphasis in this class is on pediatric treatment everything that will be taught is applicable to all ages.  Adaptations will be provided for children without language. This includes children who hear and have vocal capacity but do not speak as well as children who cannot access language neurologically or structurally.
 
PLEASE NOTE: OUR CLASS WILL BE HELD IN A BEAUTIFUL PRIVATE HOME IN EDMOND, OKLAHOMA. SPACE IS LIMITED. WE HEARTILY ENCOURAGE YOU TO MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND REGISTER FOR THIS COURSE NOW!
