Trauma affects everyone.
Trauma can happen at any age when we live through anything that overwhelms us past our ability to return to a sense of being OK.
It disconnects us from our body, from people around us and from feeling safe in the world.
Sometimes traumatic events are dramatic, like an accident, crime or a natural disaster.
Sometimes trauma results from being directly harmed, watching someone else be harmed, living in an unsupportive environment, or being affected by trauma in your family or community.
Trauma can leave a person feeling threatened, humiliated, rejected, abandoned, invalidated, unsafe, trapped, unsupported, ashamed or powerless — both when the event happened and long after the event has passed.
The effects might be noticeable immediately or after a long time.
Although there may be nothing visibly wrong with someone who’s experienced trauma, it can cause long-lasting effects on the way we think, feel and handle everyday life.
If we haven’t personally experienced some form of trauma, we’ve all observed someone else who is still struggling with the effects of trauma.
We can’t change what happened to ourselves or others.
We can equip ourselves to skillfully spot and understand trauma in the body and its effect on our daily lives.
We can develop the self-awareness required to safely and effectively support ourselves and others with their day-to-day functioning.
To be regulated in daily life is an invaluable skill that will dramatically shift how you feel and interact with the world on a daily basis.

Will you benefit from this training?
My deepest hope is that as many people as possible learn about trauma, since it affects everyone.
I believe it is our responsibility to educate ourselves in this arena to support and heal.
I believe you’ll benefit from this program if:
You're a teacher
who’s concerned or discouraged by students who may be “disruptive,” struggling to concentrate, do their homework or socialize in healthy ways.
​You’re a parent or spouse
and you love your family. Yet you’re also finding yourself frustrated, annoyed or upset by some of their habits or behaviours.
You’re a coach
who's noticed some of your clients are thriving while others get stuck and don’t seem to get the same results, and you’re not sure what to do.
You’re a yoga, fitness or pilates instructor
who wants to know how to support clients in a deeper way, finding relief and a healthy relationship to their body.
You’re a therapist or health worker
who wants to better understand and talk about trauma while learning how to work with the body to vastly increase resiliency and healing.
You're a curious human being
that wants to understand how trauma shapes us and impacts all of us, then this training is for you.
Holistic training led by an expert
My name is Maddi Rundle, RP
I’ve been studying and researching trauma for years. I’ve led a successful private practice as a Registered Psychotherapist for 10 years and I’ve spent 12 years as a Certified Yoga Instructor. I’ve personally experienced trauma as a child and adult. I’ve supported clients to heal from trauma. I’ve seen how trauma shows up and creates distress and suffering in the mind, body and spirit.
I want every person in a position of power to understand trauma so you can navigate it with open-mindedness and compassion. I want to show you the tools and practices you need to self-regulate — so that you can respond with empathy and understanding.
When you are steady in your own feeling of OK-ness, you create a sense of safety, trust, empowerment and healing. The world needs more people like you and I to do this, for ourselves and for others.
My courses have helped hundreds of people improve their relationships with themselves, others and with life. More than 150 people have completed this course, which helps you understand how trauma affects the whole person: the brain, body and the nervous system.
Every single graduate of this program is now facing life with more presence and helping create a sense of safety for hundreds of others. When we make simple shifts, we create massive positive ripples.
What’s different about this training?
I believe healing requires us to engage the mind, body and spirit.
I take a layered approach to embodied healing using psychotherapy, neuroscience and movement.
This training is transformational because it’s educational and experiential.
We’re not just talking and listening, we’re practicing and experiencing the tools in real time together.
