Speakers:
How to Decrease Internal System
In-Fighting and Increase Respect for The Gifts of All Internal
Parts
- Eileen
Aveni
This presentation will focus on
understanding the internal systems that may be present in a
survivor, and how to work with them to gradually enable them
to work together for true safety and healing. Often
internal parts are at odds with each other (such as higher
level alters, reporter alters, persecutor/protector alters,
and other internal alters) because they are used to 'doing
their jobs" and following orders. But they are really
allies in the system and can be helped to learn better and
more effective ways to keep everyone in the system safe and
help heal the system. The focus will be on how to
communicate with parts who might seem particularly difficult
to work with, learn to recognize their true gifts to the
internal system, and how to develop a community of mutual
respect.
Eileen Aveni, LMSW,
LCSW, ACSW, BCD is a psychotherapist with 30+ years in medical
and psychiatric settings working alongside other DID, Ritual
Abuse, & Mind Control treatment specialists and law
enforcement involved in these cases.
Freedom from Mind
Control - Neil Brick
Subliminal methods
and mind control influence our lives in all areas. Social and
cultural forms of mind control keep us from growing as human
beings. These forms of control make it difficult for us
to grow and learn as survivors. They make it more difficult to
work through cult control programming to free our minds
and our lives. Recovery techniques will be discussed that can
help survivors and others break through their mind control
programs and influences.
Neil
Brick is a survivor of ritual abuse and mind control.
His work continues to educate the public about child abuse,
trauma and ritual abuse crimes. His child abuse and ritual
abuse newsletter S.M.A.R.T. has been published for over 20
years.

Visual Art and
Writing Workshops -
Cynthia Mochowski and Pia Moorland
Cynthia and
Pia have used various art forms as part of their healing and
prioritize safety and supportive environments. This weekend,
they will offer two workshops - one visual art and one writing
- so you may see the value in the different
forms.
Mindfulness: Strive
to Be in the Present - Manjot Singh
Khalsa
Mindfulness is the ability to be fully
present, aware of where we are and what is going on around us
and inside of us and not being overly reactive or overwhelmed
by it. Mindfulness is more readily available to us when
we practice it regularly. This workshop will provide
participants with the opportunity to practice mindfulness by
engaging in activities/mindful exercises and the chance
to reflect on and understand what mindfulness is all
about.
Be Here Now -
Manjot Singh Khalsa
Manjot Singh Khalsa is the
creator of a Kundalini Yoga and Meditation curriculum, "Be
Here Now: Yoga, Meditation & Mantra for Trauma
Survivors". In today's experiential workshop,
participants will have the opportunity to stretch, breathe,
strengthen and rest in a safe space. No previous yoga
experience necessary. Participants will choose to sit in a
chair or on the floor during this
workshop.

Conference
ParticipantsThe conference will include all those
either recovering from ritual abuse and/or fighting against
ritual abuse. This includes survivors, co-survivors,
therapists, other helping professionals, lawyers and all

of secret organizations, acting out perpetrators, and/or
members of unsympathetic organizations are excluded from the
conference. This is for the protection and safety of those in

S.M.A.R.T. recommends that survivors
try to bring a support person that is familiar with mind
control techniques and staying with that person or another
safe person during the conference. S.M.A.R.T. recommends
learning about mind control techniques before attending
conferences or other survivor events. This article may be
