Interoception is the ability to identify, access, understand, and respond to the patterns and signals inside your body. This can happen consciously or unconsciously AND for many, it's a skill that can be learned and/or improved.
The MAIA assessment is one of many ways to track the progress of trauma resilience-building skills.
About the MAIA:
This questionnaire was funded by the National Institute of Health (NCCAM/NCCIH) and is available in the public domain. (Hooray for freely sharing healthcare & science!) A good way to think of the MAIA is as a science-approved measuring stick for your interoception skills.
Directions:
- The 32 questions are divided into 8 sections for your ease.
- After submitting your answers, you'll receive a copy of your answers via email.
- (To maintain full anonymity, you may print the assessment and self-scoring via the .pdf)
Scoring:
Your confirmation screen will have further information about self-scoring, if that's something you're interested in. Otherwise, clients can discuss their scores in an upcoming client call. :-)
