The Essential Link for Human Development
Ray shines the light on working with families and the baby's experience in particular as an essential aspect of human development that we see throughout the lifespan. This part of our human development is implicit and therefore necessarily somatic. Ray will describe his specific somatic approach to supporting this particular part of our human development whether with babies or with the baby in each of us.
