The Pocket Cards have been used worldwide to help practitioners reinforce the skills of the Trauma Resiliency Model and the Veterans’ Resiliency Model. The cards include a review of each skill and suggested language that help the practitioner learn the language of sensation. The pocket cards also include information on assessing readiness for using somatic-based skills, how to start and close a session, deactivation strategies, and simple graphics that explain the biological models.
