In this retreat for women & men, we invite you into a gentle and profound experiential exploration of safe ways for releasing the memory of and response to trauma, whereby we reclaim renewed freedom to live fully embodied lives… personally, professionally and intimately.
The inability to be fully present where we are, is one of the symptoms of trauma.
How do we move from dissociation, over association and hyper vigilance into gentle presence exactly as and where we are?
It is remarkable how many people have had some traumatic experiences in their lives which have left them stuck in some form of incomplete defense response – whether conscious and/or unconscious. Experiences ranging from falls, accidents, neglect, direct sexual invasion to emotional incest or sexual innuendo can be too much for us to process at the time they occur. As we’re unable to defend ourselves, we often find ourselves stuck in fight, flight or freeze. We find ourselves fixed in repeated emotional or physical responses, which leave us feeling helpless and stuck.
The time for finding our freedom is NOW.
The traumatic event is over, let us do the work and reclaim our right to choice.
During this retreat you will:
↠ Get a basic experiential understanding of how the nervous system processes traumatic experiences.
↠ Experience and witness individual sessions within the group which will demonstrate the theory that we’ve discussed leading to an experiential healing and understanding – because our nervous systems are highly social, we will experience co regulation towards more resilience and freedom and connection to our own bodies.
↠ Enjoy deeper connection with yourself and an expanded capacity for deeper intimacy with others
↠ Open to a deeper level of energetic experience
↠ Experience a natural expansion of consciousness
This retreat will be valuable for those individuals who wish to enter more deeply into their own healing process and also for practitioners who are interested in deepening their skills and understanding of trauma.
