About this Event
Sometimes women and gender expansive folk begin to feel that they must attract abuse if it happens more than once in their lives. This is not true. No one is ever to blame in any way for the abusive actions of others.
The group program recognises that there are sharks out there in the world and sometimes it is not possible to avoid them. Having a strong Shark Cage® of human rights can help you to recognise sharks before they become a part of your life. This program will help you strengthen your Shark Cafe and make sure it has a good alarm system.
You will also explore how to recognise a respectful dolphin and identify the characteristics of healthy relationships. In working through the 5 steps in the Shark Cage framework, you will learn about the impacts of trauma, how to manage strong emotions, develop assertiveness skills, and build your sense of empowerment. You will also create your personal Treasure Chest of tools to help you heal and create a new, strong and positive sense of yourself and your rights.
