Make plans for Touching Essence™ — A 50-Hour Multi-Sensory Immersion in Neo-Shamanic Bodywork w/ Ellen Watson & Phonik Angel in Bali, Jan 5-12!
Touching Essence welcomes everyone; for personal development, continuing education or professional training.
If you are new to this work, this is a strong place to begin. If you are a seasoned bodywork professional, this continuing-education program adds to your existing clinical and traditional training.
What Is Touching Essence™?
Touching Essence is a multi-sensory, multicultural, neo-shamanic approach to healing through touch. It combines the physical with the metaphysical, working with the energies of the chakras, the meridians and the cosmos.
Sessions engage the five physical senses, the three subtle senses of imagination, intuition and inspiration, and specifically chosen essential oils, sound, song and mantra creation.
Touching Essence uses the Indian map of 8 chakras and the Chinese map of 12 meridians alongside essential oils, vocal and sound healing, visualization and affirmation, all in support of your desired outcomes.
These act as conductors through which the body, mind, emotions and energy interact as one integrated system, so any imbalance at the level of the chakras and meridians shows up as tension and disharmony in the physical body.
The focus of the work is to access these powerful energy centers through a combination of the five physical senses and the three subtle senses. We teach students how to direct breath and sound to release holding patterns throughout the physical, emotional and energy bodies.
The intention of this course is global fusion of highly effective approaches and protocols that address patterns of holding in the physical, emotional, and energetic bodies.
At Amertha Bali Villas, located in the quiet northwest corner of Bali, the pace of life slows. The horizon opens to the turquoise waters of the Bali Sea, with the distant outline of Java’s volcanoes visible at sunrise.
This is a more traditional side of Bali, unhurried, spacious, and deeply connected to nature.
