IMAGINE...

  • Access to a new source of listening that reveals your body’s wisdom to cultivate that which you most deeply desire.
  • You will quiet your self-judgments and assessments to discover new dimensions for yourself and your clients. This experiential inquiry draws from various methods including: Guided meditation, reflection, journaling, sharing, expressive arts, neuropsychology and Body Dialogue.
  • Body Dialogue emerged from the internationally practiced technique of Voice Dialogue.   Both are profound tools for cultivating awareness, experiencing wholeness and integrating mind, body and spirit.
  • Please join us as we co-create a transformative learning community of professionals.

WORKSHOP GOALS - You will have:

  • A new way of being present for yourself and listening to your body that is also relevant for your work with clients.
  • An experiential understanding of Body Dialogue, The Psychology of Selves and The Aware Ego Process.
  • Access to your own wisdom by cultivating awareness that contributes to your well being and your work with clients.
  • Specific tools for connecting to your body and interrupting old patterns.

I.   Introduction (10 minutes) Speaker's story: personal challenges/ success        with vital wellbeing         

II.  Participant introduction (20 minutes) An experiential process to connect         participants to their body and the strengths and resources they bring

  3. Do you have any feedback about ___?

     B. In guided meditation, participants separate from their primary selves.            C. Continuing in meditation: meet your inner protector.  What does the                   protector need so that the process feels safe?  (1 minute) share      

     D. Next, choose a part of the body, or body as a whole, to ask questions.               This is a deep listening and inquiry, not a negotiation.
