uniting ancient wisdom and evidence based science
tone your polyvagal nervous system
learn how the human nervous system works and how to map your own nervous system
use simple somatic techniques such as shaking medicine and breathing practices for relaxation, energising and balancing
This weekend workshop is a place to RECHARGE YOU through weaving of somatic practice, polyvagal exercises, free movement, nature’s teachings, simple compassionate guidance, inspiring music and authentic connection in community.
It is so important to pause, dance and recharge particularly in these unique times where there is so much change, noise, conflicting opinions and environments of distress. This is a space to exhale, shake off and tune into the deeper sanity of nature's rhythms.
This is all about meeting these times resourced and self connected, rather than from a self protective posture. You will be given simple, short practices to tone your nervous system (like toning muscles) towards empowered relaxation through the lens of the Polyvagal perspective of Deb Dana and Dr. Porges.
An exploration of the Wisdom of the Elements
The profound medicinal importance of developing a Compassionate ‘Inner witness’
INFORMATION ABOUT: ~A neuroscience perspective of our capacity to create real, long lasting inner change. ~The deeply informative work of Somatic Experiencing, Peter Levine and Bessel Van Der Kolk. ~Polyvagal Theory developed by Dr. Stephen Porges and Deb Dana.
This course will contain:
Resources of connection to somatic intelligence and medicine of movement
The shamanic wisdom of nature's teachings
Science backed efficacy of Polyvagal practices to tone your nervous system
The vibrant inspiration and alongsideness of a small community to explore the power of practice
