What Is Movement Works?
Movement Works is a therapeutic process that creates more conscious awareness around our YES to life as well as our NO. We develop the compassionate Objective Observer and cultivate our relationship with our Higher Self in order to transform the energy in our No and use it in the service of what we really want to create in our lives. This Movement Works process cultivates self-responsibility and self-love. We learn how to be more engaged in our relationship to self, with others and to life itself.
in this process, we learn to feel more, to open to all that is within and without. in these moments, we participate fully in life and indeed, become one with life itself. We move from separation into unity.
what is pathwork?
Pathwork is a body of practical spiritual wisdom that lays out a step-by-step journey into personal transformation and wholeness. These practical concepts offer guidance and advice for self-development and personal growth. It is a voyage of self-discovery, allowing us to push through established layers of defenses, denial and fear to reach a better understanding of the Self.
what is core energetics?
Core Energetics is a marriage of Body Psychotherapy and Spiritual Development. The work brings consciousness to how we block our own unique energy and recreate defense patterns adapted in childhood that keep us limited and disempowered. The core process helps us see how our worldview is to a large extent a function of many of these blocked energy patterns, and so we keep recreating similar situations and relational dynamics that leave us frustrated.
Working with the body is critical in Core Energetics, because our defenses, belief systems, coping mechanisms, and typical emotional responses are not just psychological, they are also somatic and powerfully anchored in the physical body. There are many techniques used in this process to address those blocked energy patterns.
Core Energetics is life-changing work that opens us to the fullness of our life force, opening the heart and grounding us in the strength and integrity of who we really are. It brings forth our unique gifts as we engage more responsibly with the world around us.
