Introduction to The
Self-Spotting Workshop
Welcome to the Self-Spotting Workshop, based on the Brainspotting process called focused mindfulness. It is ideal for those wanting to expand their meditation practice or try focused mindfulness. Self-Spotting is ideal for anyone seeking peace and balance during challenging times.
Course Description
A Grounded Practice for Self‑Regulation, Insight, and Care
Self‑Spotting is a gentle yet powerful practice that blends Brainspotting principles with mindfulness meditation. Designed for both clinicians and individuals, Self-Spotting offers a structured way to listen to the body, regulate the nervous system, and cultivate clarity, without forcing change.
Whether you are looking to deepen your meditation practice, manage stress more effectively, or develop greater self‑awareness, Self‑Spotting provides a practical, embodied approach you can return to again and again.
Self-Spotting Class Curriculum
Self‑Spotting is a self‑led, body‑based mindfulness practice taught in a group format. You will learn to do on your own, or with a partner and experience Self-Spotting in a group setting. It supports nervous system regulation by helping you notice where your attention naturally settles, through the eyes, breath, and bodily sensations, while staying present and resourced.
Rather than fixing or overriding discomfort, Self‑Spotting invites curiosity, compassion, and attuned awareness, allowing insights and shifts to emerge organically.
During the Self‑Spotting Workshop, you will:
Learn foundational concepts of self‑regulation
Be introduced to Brainspotting and Self‑Spotting principles
Experience a guided Self‑Spotting demonstration
Learn how to witness another’s process with presence and respect
Receive clear directions for continuing Self‑Spotting on your own
Take home handouts and resources to support ongoing practice
Class Benefits
Self‑Spotting supports holistic well‑being by integrating mind and body. Participants often experience:
Emotional & Nervous System Support
- Enhanced relaxation after demanding or emotionally taxing days
- Stress management tools for navigating challenging situations with greater ease
- Empathic release for clinicians holding others’ experiences
- Counter‑transference awareness, helping therapists recognize and regulate their own internal responses
Personal Growth & Clarity
- Increased self‑confidence when facing self‑doubt or inner criticism
- Support in shedding limiting beliefs and strengthening resilience
- Greater clarity in decision‑making, relationships, and life direction
- Visualization and projection, allowing you to sense into desired states and future possibilities
Somatic & Physical Relief
- Physical tension release through attuned body awareness
- Relief from physical discomfort by engaging brain‑body pathways connected to sensation
- Improved sleep and grounding through consistent practice
Together, these elements create a transformational self-discovery practice that is both accessible and deeply regulating.
