Monday morning live with Natasa Denman featuring one of her amazing authors from the 2015 Retreat, Anita Bentata. Anita Bentata is a highly skilled mentor facilitator with nearly 30 years experience in western and eastern science, psychology and neursocience. She is the author of The Wolf in a Suit, and soon to be released, The Truth about Love, Abuse and Therapy, as well as The Inner Essential Journey. In this time, Anita has explored the relationship between love, stress and trauma, through research, clients, followers stories, and her journey out of trauma. She realised why people become stuck in stress/trauma, and difficult thought patterns, habits, and relationships. This led to developing The Essentials MEthod™ which is transforming lives and freeing people from relying on time consuming ‘techiques and therapy/coaching' to manage stress. With her calm, comforting approach, Anita inspires and imparts clarity through a practical blueprint to move beyond current perceptions into generative possibilities, free in the moment, no matter the past, or current environment. Anita's Take-Aways: 1. We're trained by society and family to listen to others who don't know what is best for us or in alignment with our inner calling, and so lose track of our inner guidance. When we see an 'expert' we continue the pattern from our parents that outisde of us, others know best, and we lose the incredible opportunities to discover more than we conceive is possible when going inwards. 2. We live in a society that focuses on and values the left brain qualities: thinking, logic, rationality, concrete reality, learning from the past. But the left brain does not know the unknown, and so it repeats what is known. 3. Little Red Riding Hood was told to stick to the path. We are often told 'what the right path' should look like, whether in business or relationships.

For the last 26 years, Anita has been a mind body psychotherapist. She is also a mentor, speaker, creator of The Essentials Method, and the recipient of multiple international awards for her unique programs. What's interesting about Anita is she is a bit of a maverick. She looked around and realized that the professionals in her field were not getting adequate training around abuse and trauma and proceeded to fill the void. Today, she is here to talk to us about stress and how to live free, no matter what is happening in our lives now, or what has happened to us in the past.Connect with Anita:Website: https://anitabentata.com/Instagram: www.instagram.com/anitabentata Facebook: www.facebook.com/thewolfinasuitFacebook: www.facebook.com/targetingabetterwayinrelationshipsFacebook: https://facebook.com/groups/BigHeartedWomenCommunity/LinkedIn: https://au.linkedin.com/in/anita-bentataTwitter: www.twitter.com/anitabentata YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/anidrbPinterest: https://pin.it/ejUfCZfPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com › anidrbWeb resultsSelf care & relationship growth - PinterestCourses: https://anita-bentata.teachable.com
“You can see things differently depending on how you interpret things and that influences how you respond to it.” Anita Bentata The link between healing of trauma and neuroscience is something that has received considerable attention in practice. Our guest today, Anita Bentata, has spent most of her time researching and learning about trauma and the healing process in an effort to help people overcome their past and embody a better self. Anita Bentata is a psychotherapist, author, online group facilitator, thought leader and speaker, specializing in trauma, abuse, stress, relationships and love. Anita is based in Melbourne, Australia and is the recipient of multi-international awards and national recognition for her approach and program for women impacted by trauma, isolation and abuse. Anita has spoken at conferences about her model and theories, as well as participated in numerous interviews and being involved as a consultant and primary interviewee for a documentary about domestic violence. Anita's focus is showing people they can feel free, resilient and resourced, in mind and body; no matter their past, or any current situation. So, people can embody wellbeing, healthy life energy and clarity in life choices, as opposed to passivity, repetition or reactions. After nearly 3 decades in the field, including 4 years of specialist training in trauma and defense systems, Anita came to realize why people get stuck in trauma or therapy for longer than is needed. This vital framework forms The Essentials Method™, based on neuroscience and the best of whole brain body Western and Eastern science and psychology; along with countless hours spent with clients. Combined, this led Anita to realize what was missing in personal and community life skill development, and within the field of psychology. This awareness of what was missing in the field and necessary for complete trauma resolution, and to face anything in life as well as to move forward free from the past, was also informed by the personal work Anita undertook prior to her qualification. It was her journey as a client which led Anita to change careers from accounts and book-keeping, and into psychotherapy. Undertaking therapy to resolve trauma from a childhood of abuse and neglect, and from later escaping domestic violence with her two young children. Client journeys, parenting her children through trauma, and two significant life events led Anita to understand more of what is needed to fully resolve the unbearable and the uncomfortable. Anita created the Living in Flow online, live, group or 1:1 program consisting of a series of modules to skill people to live life from The Essentials Method™. People are not taught now to take advantage of the brilliance of the brain and body and instead are held captive by old, learnt styles of coping. Coping methods which didn't develop, along with other life skills, has meant people tend to know what they don't want, and what they do want, but not know how to transition from the old to the new. People end up in with limited beliefs, behaviors and habits and perceive this is ‘normal' not realizing what could be named as ‘normal' and possible for healthy and vibrant living and relationships. Anita's values are joy, ease and growth. This creates a life of love, flow and creativity. Anita believes we're all creators and life is about creative living, and when we don't have access to the our whole brain and body we do keep creating, but we're re-creating old patterns and worries, going over the past, maintaining, coping or managing through the use of any skills, including wonderful trauma techniques which of their own still do not provide the full map to move on in life and can end up deepening the connections to the past when there is not enough understanding about how the brain works and what it needs from us. In today's episode, Anita will discuss more about listening to their emotions and feelings rather than entirely depending on reason in healing trauma. She will also highlight on the importance of working in groups when going through the healing process. Listen in!

[3:26] I used to work in bookkeeping and accounts and I changed careers and became a therapist and did specialist studies on trauma and understanding what happens. [3:36] I came to this work through my own personal journey and I went into therapy to make sure I didn't get into more abuse because I grew up with abuse and trauma. [4:46] My passion is about assisting people to activate the brain and the body out of the trauma response, to be able to listen and to take action. [5:27] My personal life experiences have given me such a gift of understanding my own journey by questioning things from a personal perspective and resonate as well as connect with my clients. [6:00] After working many years, I started noticing patterns with people and I started creating my own theories because I felt like there wasn't adequate answers. [6:29] My organization is all about being able to tap into the whole self, and into our life energy, to be able to make better decisions and to have greater emotional muscle to go beyond the repeat. [7:55] I show people in my neuroscience backed program, how to have fresh thoughts and be mobilized into action that's aligned with our feelings and our thoughts so that there isn't an internal conflict. [8:38] I'm really passionate about is teaching people about our brilliant brain, because there's nothing faulty from my perspective ever going on in our brain. [10:44] Often people don't realize that it's feelings that changes neural pathways and so we need to find a way to be able to take care of the feeling. [11:02] Along the way, I've discovered how people miss label things and I've created a neuroscience way of how we talk to ourselves based on how we talk to ourselves. [14:05] The more we know how to use our own brain, the more then we can fire and wire because feelings is what activates the wiring together. [14:33] I also found that people keep looping to what the brain does most recently and most frequently, not necessarily because of the trauma that's happened. [15:55] People often don't have the skills on how to move forward in a genuine way that's not through willpower and not through positive thinking. [17:06] It is a powerful thing to be able to label things so that our environment doesn't define how we are. [19:14] You can see things differently depending on how you interpret things and that influences how you respond to it. [20:16] Commercial break. [20:38] The most important thing is to be able to tell yourself that there are more possibilities of how I can perceive what's going on or be able to talk to somebody that I feel like can connect with where I'm at. [23:13 Most traumas happen in relationship to people and so we get stuck more on a social or an interpersonal level. [23:51] The most important thing is to be able to know there's always a new way of addressing something that we don't know about. [24:02] From my perspective based on my experience, we notice things because we're conscious and we end up hooking into them and retelling the same story which loops us into those neural pathways. [25:40] It is about how to find a way to not get hooked into those old patterns and those old stories so that our system can move on. [26:02] We can start putting out energy and focus into firing and wiring the new map otherwise, we just keep re looping. [26:15] A lot of my work is actually helping people to label and talk to themselves through the transition, and how to engineer things so that it gets in that optimal generative way. [28:13] I also help people to trust the inner reality, and stop trusting the outer reality because the outer reality is just a momentum of what's been happening of the past. [28:27] One of the most important things is, what you focus on is what keeps deepening in your system. [31:06] It is about taking that step for ourselves and experimenting to find out whether it feels better. [31:58] Just keep trying and following what feels better because if you keep following through the day, instead of following what you think you should be doing, everything will keep getting easier. [32:11] Often, I find that people can create a faster change quicker when they do it in a group because they're motivated and inspired. [33:09] …………………..…..

Targeting Relationship Abuse with Anita Bentata, from Australia Abuse occurs to 1 in 3 women, and so in every group, there are likely to be people with past or current experiences of abuse, and most probably unresolved trauma that is indirectly or directly shaping what they see and how they act. Most professionals do not receive adequate training about trauma and abuse. It is all surface level, yet trauma and abuse are deep and have many involuntary aspects. No one wants to see how they are tolerating toxic or abuse in their own personal or professional lives. People outside of abuse, walk on eggshells so as not to get on the wrong side of people, including family and professionals. The victim/survivor and person using abuse are a reflection of the shadow in our family, community and systems. We are missing family, community and professional emotional muscle to have the uncomfortable but necessary conversations.

Didn't we solve this with #AustraliaSaysNo and all the other awareness campaigns? Heck no! And that's why we tracked ourselves an expert to talk to us about what's really happening in Australia when it comes to domestic violence. Enter, 25-year psychotherapy veteran, Anita Bentata. We chatted to her about: Feminine principle hemispherectomy. What is it and why it’s CRUCIAL to resolving domestic violence. Why women don’t want to identify with being in domestic violent relationships, and why conversations around DV fall on deaf ears. Why women (and men) stay in domestic violent relationships. Why domestic violence is increasing regardless of the increase of awareness campaigns over the last decade Why ironically anger is an expression of self-love And why embracing the feminine within ourselves whether we are female or male, is the solution to the prevention of domestic violence. Pour yourself a coffee, or a glass of wine and sink your teeth into this juicy gem of a conversation! Because domestic violence DOES happen and there is something YOU can do about it. Who is Anita Bentata, Anyway? Anita Bentata is a psychotherapist who has worked in the field for 25 years specializing in trauma and abuse, especially around Domestic Violence. After publishing her book, The Wolf in a Suit in 2016 she realized that awareness was only creating more overwhelm and outrage around domestic violence and wasn’t changing anything. Anita began developing her own solutions so that women don’t have to wait for powers in the public to change the conversation around domestic violence. Take Part in Our Listener Survey - Click Here!

Naja chats with Psychotherapist and abuse survivor, Anita Bentata. She hails from Australia and she shares her own experiences with abuse and how she has turned her life experiences into a life-changing platform.
Despite concern and greater awareness about domestic violence, it’s still happening, and with only 16% of women who experience violence contacting an agency such as a shelter, crisis centre or hotline, counsellor or women’s centre for help, we may never really know the how wide spread the issue is. In this extraordinary episode I speak with Anita Bentata, an escapee of domestic violence. Anita’s story has been documented in her book “The Wolf in a Suit”. During this episode Anita shares incredible insights from the children’s fairy tale “Little Red Riding Hood” and it’s easy to see the parallels of the fairy tale with her own journey, Anita is Little Red Riding Hood, standing at the edge of the woods, being caught by The Wolf (only he’s wearing a suit), and finally escaping with her two little girls. This episode is one of hope, courage and full of insights as Anita shares how we can all access far more than we know, and how when faced with mixed messages from a partner we end up confused, leading to inaction, possibly the reason why some women stay much longer than they should. Anita has turned her experiences into a mission to help women, she went on to study Human Behavior and became a psychotherapist and counsellor. Anita now helps women to develop their emotional muscle to speak about the unknown and the uncomfortable, she is well versed in all the unspoken myths about love, stress and relationships.

ANITA BENTATA said nearing 50 she needed to change her life story from trauma, being alone and hard work, but didn’t yet know how. Childhood neglect and abuse had shaped Anita into a powerless young adult unable to protect her from being stalked in her teens. Years later, she escaped domestic violence with her two young children and entered therapy to make sure it never happened again and also took a risk and entered university to change careers from accounts to psychotherapy which she did and began helping victims of DV and other trauma. After years of experience and practical knowledge Anita was ready to reach more people and to address ‘next level gaps’ and also remembered her promise to clients to write a book explaining why women stay. She did that and wrote The Wolf in a Suit. This led to reflecting deeply on what was missing in society. To address the gaps for survivors, community and professionals in prevention, intervention and healing Anita created Feminine Principle events and the Big Hearted Woman program. She answered what her parents, other parents and society didn’t teach about love, relationships, stress and trauma; then created the Women Starting Again group which has 765 members, plus educative online programs and national and international retreats, talks and workshops. Her next book is underway “Uncomfortable Conversations: how to talk to someone when they are in a toxic relationship;” as well Anita started an online membership program on her website anitabentata.com so healing is easier and affordable allowing woman to help another woman heal. Domestic violence is a scourge in society and clearly Anita’s book and groups can be of immense help and support. Learn more at her website anitabentata.com where you can also contact her.
Anita Bentata is a speaker, author, events and retreat facilitator.

Anita Bentata is a Melbourne based author, survivor and psychotherapist using fairytales to explore domestic violence issue. With one in three women subjected to abuse, Anita helps to educate the community with her book The Wolf in a Suit using the tale of Little Red Riding Hood to help explain why women stay in abusive relationships, while the story of Bluebeard introduces concept around false love, and the Ugly Duckling is used to look at rejection, survival and shame. In our interview Anita defined what is abuse and the difference between abuse and conflict. We've also explored different leves and the impact domestic violence has on individual such as work, self love, family, friends, health and moving on in life. Anita facilitates workshops around Australia where she teaches how to live with your story and helps understand the behavioural patterns of perpetrators as well as prevention workshops wearing her Red Riding Hood cape.
