EMOTIONAID®
The EmotionAid® intervention is a first-aid tool designed to enhance wellbeing by reducing stress. This unique 5-step method is the solution for stress accumulation and burnout:
The theoretical basis of the protocol is Somatic Experiencing (SE). Somatic Experiencing focuses on how the effects of trauma are often held within the body and seeks to use the body’s functions to release that trauma and return to a sense of calm.
EMOTIONAID® FOR SCHOOLS
Significant learning can only take place when our nervous system is in balance.
Our vision is to bring the language and tools of EmotionAid® to all the schools in South Africa, beginning with the teaching staff, principals, counsellors, psychologists, students, and parents.
