WBF energy work: a therapeutic group for healing & restoring wholeness

/1 Comment/in /by

Event Phone: 707-315-2370

This new online program will incorporate the practice of Wholebody Focusing energy work as a foundation for facilitating deep healing and restoring wholeness. We co-create and unfold a therapeutic group journey together for the sake of our own healing and for the transformation of others. We develop and nurture a safe, supportive and interactive environment that facilitates awakening the body’s life energy, and unwinding its embodied patterns and triggers. This process also invites and allows the body to bring us surprising new creative possibilities, and capacities- restoring, as well as reclaiming the fullness of life and spirit within our body.

WBF energy meditations: embodied journeys for renewing & unfolding the inner spirit

/0 Comments/in /by

Event Phone: 707-315-2370

This program will use the modality of Wholebody Focusing as a vehicle for active meditations- awakening, exploring and embodying our body’s vital energy and deep feelings. The inner alchemy of embodied journeying involves a simple 3 phase WBF process. We will practice these aspects, within the dynamic of educing spirit, i.e., drawing out and bringing forth latent energies in alignment with our innermost being. We can emerge from this crisis, not only surviving it, but also using it to deepen and expand our personal, global and spiritual consciousness- to reawaken our openness to being, to free our life energies and recover the body’s natal spirit. Together we can return to life, to the aliveness of being-here in the precious gift of each moment.

Wholebody Focusing Retreat (3nd Annual)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Event Phone: 707-315-2370

Do you ever feel there is much more life and spirit inside your body than you currently live?
Would you love to embody a new way of being, one closer to your original, natural child?
Do you yearn for a community of kindred spirits? For deeper, richer, intimate connections?

If you, like me, answer “Yes’ to one or all of these questions, then please consider joining us for a fun, rewarding and restorative shared experience.

Nietzsche once said that, “In every real man [person] a child is hidden that wants to play.” In this 3rd annual WBF retreat, we will embark on a journey to reconnect with, reawaken and recover the living spirit of our natural child. This child needs our care and connection to return to its healing, the undamaged Source within. On our journey of recovery, we will be introducing and experiencing bodying as a new core element of WBF. Bodying is the active and interactive living and playing out of what is alive in our awareness.

Playing it Out: the Experiential Process of Soma-Drama Work in WBF & FOT

/0 Comments/in , /by

Event Phone: 707-315-2370

This 8 week seminar will offer an experiential introduction to soma-drama work in WBF and FOT. We will be invoking the spirit of play, of Eros, to create a “play space,” a “theater of the living body,” that enables us to safely and playfully experience the awakening of our life-force and creative energy. The performative model of soma-drama is one that encourages us to play it out. All felt sensing is a field of energy, of vibrancies, tonalities, sensualities, as well as the body’s potential energy for movement and expressive action. Thus, in order to harness this deeper dimension of felt sensing requires whole body engagement, with the same energy, devotion and spirit as the child at play.

Event Phone: 707-315-2370

Join me for a special two-hour Wholebody Focusing circle. We will be using the WBF method as a means of inviting the spirit of Eros to awaken- and to flow through our embodied self. This practice will be a taste of the inner, spiritual alchemy of WBF- allowing us to begin to recover the openness, playfulness sensuality and connectedness of Eros, the vital energy of love.

Coming More to Life: Restoring the Body’s Spirit With Wholebody Focusing

Most of what we call our personal life is bound by conditioned patterns and routines. These bodily patterns are so ingrained and automatic that they seem to have a life of their own.
