Content Description:

Memory Reconsolidation: Translating Neuroscience Into Art

Memory Reconsolidation is a phenomenon, not a technique.

When I learned that, my world opened up.

I used to be frustrated at the inconsistency and unpredictability of my work. I wondered if I was any good as a therapist.

Or worse, I became frustrated with my clients because they didn’t improve.

But then I learned that memory reconsolidation — a fast way to unlock old learnings — didn’t happen because of some technique I was using...

Memory reconsolidation happened because on occasion, I managed to summon the key combination of factors that unlocks the human implicit memory system.

It turns out that our brains come pre-built with a way to create a neural 'short-circuit,' that lets your clients permanently rewire the implicit memories that keep them stuck.

You just need three ingredients, and some practice.

Now that I know how Memory Reconsolidation works, transformations are faster. Going deep with a client happens more often.

And complex cases...are much less daunting.

Inside this course, you will learn everything you need to give your clients the best chance for successful memory reconsolidations over and over.

Agenda

Memory Reconsolidation:Translating Neuroscience Into Art
with Jules Taylor Shore
Course Agenda

Module 1 Video Recordings: Memory Reconsolidation Basics – 1 Hour Total – 1 CE (distance learning)
In this module, you will learn about memory. You will learn about explicit and implicit memory systems and take a look at how memory is created, re-experienced and changes. You will discover that there are core elements that are necessary for reconsolidation to be completed and that once understood these can be harnessed to support therapeutic reconsolidation experiences.

Part 1: Memory and Perception

how the mind perceives through the lens of history
how memory is recalled
the explicit and implicit memory systems
the psychological floor

Part 2: Memory Consolidation and Reconsolidation

memory consolidation
memory reconsolidation
the importance of updating
- the astronauts
why it doesn’t happen all the time
the three elements of reconsolidation
Therapies are already doing this, some know it, some don't

Part 3: The sticky Symptom and the emotional Knowing

Symptom vs knowing
Map of how the system came to be
map of how it shows up in the office
Coherent reasons

Part 4: Brains are complex

it can be straightforward but…
the importance of subjectivity
when emotional knowings will not unlock
- not embodied
- mismatch and original knowing not embodied simultaneously
- not enough mismatch
- too much mismatch
- focus of sticky symptom instead of the knowing
- the brain was too activated and so mismatch detectors where down-regulated

Part 5: Memory Reconsolidation in Therapy

Intro to tape
demo tape of memory reconsolidation
wrap up and intro to module 2

Educational Goals for Module 1:

The clinician will be able to define two types of memory, define memory reconsolidation and identify needed components to be able to apply this to future therapy work as well as identify which clinical skills they already have that support the needed elements to support therapeutic reconsolidation.

Learning objectives

Name two different types of memory
Describe how the implicit memory system influences everyday processing
Name the three necessary elements for reconsolidation to occur
Define symptoms in relation to the emotional knowings within the implicit memory systems.
Name the mismatch detectors that exist in the brain

Live Zoom Session 1: Memory Reconsolidation Basics - Tuesday, March 28 at 9am PDT – 1.5 Hours - 1.5 (live*)

• Name brain state needed to support the process of reconsolidation
• q and a

Module 2 Video Recordings: Holding Healing Brain States – 2 Hours – 2 CEs (distance learning)
In this module, you will learn about healing brain states. You will focus on creating space in which enough activation and enough regulation are simultaneously active for the mismatch to be both discovered and protected. You will also consider what stances you hold that might hinder your client’s reconsolidation processes.

Part 1: Healing Brain States

mismatch detectors
enough activation
enough regulation
demo tape of healing brain state-mixed

Part 2: Building Coherence

Educational Goals for Module 2:
The clinician will be able to identify the brain state that supports the reconsolidation experience. The clinician will identify and make plans to address countertransference issues that will prevent them from supporting the client in staying the the needed brain state. The clinician will learn skills and techniques to assist in adding emotional regulation and embodied activation that is required for the reconsolidation to occur.

Learning objectives

Describe how the mismatch detectors are involved in the juxtaposition process
Identify the regulation tools that increase compassion, coherence and decrease aloneness
define dual empathy
Identify skills that increase activation
Identify the brain state needed to support reconsolidation

Live Zoom Session 2: Holding Healing Brain States - Tuesday, April 4 at 9am PDT – 1.5 Hours - 1.5 CEs (live*)
LIVE SESSION 2 AGENDA: HEALING BRAIN STATES
• Discuss therapeutic stance that blocks successful reconsolidation
• Identify three stances that support client increasing self trust and autonomy
• Describe and show dual empathy
• Identifying the difficulties created by aiming for the juxtaposition/creating the juxtaposition
• q and a

Module 3 Video Recordings: Finding the Emotional Knowing – 2.5 Hours – 2.5 CEs (distance learning)
In this module, you will learn about the difference between the symptom and the emotional knowing. This difference is essential and the misunderstanding of this difference is one of the common reasons that clinicians feel unable to assist their clients with reconsolidation experiences. The other common issue that will be addressed in this module is how to support the network holding the emotional knowing in an embodied enough way that it can become open to learning new information. You will learn how precise language will help your clients reconsolidate costly learnings with more ease and permanence. You will leave with interventions to deepen embodied experiences.

Part 1: Emotional Knowing or Sticky Symptom

separating the sticky symptom from the emotional knowing
bringing the knowing into contact with the witnessing mind
finding the language to see the shape of the knowing
complex layered symptoms
demo tape of several clients to see examples of symptom vs knowings

slowing down enough to hear the image/history/language
demo tape of tracking viscera to find knowing

Part 4: Tracking the Joints

basal ganglia and joint tracking
slowing down enough to hear the image/history/language
demo tape of joint tracking to find knowing

Part 5: Helping the Knowing Become Embodied

enough juice through the network that the prediction is embodied and active
if memory arises follow that
bringing the knowing into the body
tracking longer, letting activation get bigger
demo tape of helping the knowing become alive in the body

Educational Goals for module three:
The clinician will be able to separate the symptom for subconscious emotional knowing in the implicit memory system that are locking it in place. The clinician will learn several new techniques to help clients discover and make explicit emotional knowings that underly their symptoms.

Learning objectives

Identify emotional knowing as differentiated from the clients symptom
Describe coherence of symptoms
Name skills to track sensations in the viscera
Name skills that track emotional knowing in the basal ganglia
You will gain many tools to use to help your clients discover the subconscious knowings that are driving costly symptoms

Live Zoom Session 3: Finding the Emotional Knowing - Tuesday, April 11 at 9am PDT – 1.5 hours - 1.5 CEs (live*)
LIVE SESSION 3 AGENDA: FINDING THE EMOTIONAL KNOWING

• q and a

Module 4 Video Recordings: The Mismatch, the Support and the Double Check – 1.5 Hours – 1.5 CEs (distance learning)
In this module, you will focus on the moment of mismatch and learn how to recognize a successful opening in previously locked networks. You will learn to spot spontaneous reconsolidations and juxtapositions and learn how to support them to completion. You will also learn how to create spaces in which clients will find their own mismatches that are already present within themselves and learn what to do when a needed mismatch is not present. You will also learn how to double check your reconsolidation work.

Part 1: Finding the Mismatch, it is Already There

mismatch=prediction error=you are looking for surprise
repeat the knowing and wait for mismatch to be discovered
use limbic language
spontaneous juxtaposition
demo tape of mismatch moment

Part 2: What About When There is not a Mismatch?

creation of new experiences inside of the therapeutic relationship

Part 3 Keeping a Reconsolidation Going Once it Starts

five hour window
going back and forth between knowing and mismatch
interventions to give for right after session
demo tape of back and forth

Part 4: Double Checking the Reconsolidation

double check- try to stimulate and ask about symptom
if some relief but not all, you may be with a complex trauma or hard to move symptom presentation
go back to original knowing and see if it was actually a symptom
go back the the mismatch was it too far or too close

Educational Goals for module four:
The clinician will be able to identify mismatches that occur spontaneously as well as support the client when the mismatch needed is not easily discovered. The clinician will identify skills they already have to support the mismatch. The clinician will be able to identify the moment of successful prediction error and support the reconsolidation both in and immediately after a session.

Learning objectives

Identify that a prediction error has successfully occurred
Activate the mismatch and the knowing simultaneously
Name four tools to support the client taking in the new learning inside of the 5 hour window
Name three interventions to help clients identify mismatches that are subjective.
