 raphical events. However\, such remembered stories represent only the tip o
 f the iceberg. Implicit memories held in the body dominate the first prever
 bal years of life and all traumatic events. Clay Field Therapy offers a uni
 que option to connect with the haptic developmental building blocks that sh
 ape the physiological identity in children. The workshop will focus on touc
 h explorations of the implicit memory systems. In the therapeutic environme
 nt at the Clay Field these can foster new sensorimotor experiences that enh
 ance self-esteem\, empowerment\, and restoration of developmental deficits.
