Liberation intensives are 1:45 minutes to 3:30 hour immersions, 3 to 4 days in a row. And require that you have done some individual work with me first.
Somatic Life Skills take time, practice and repetition to become second nature so that you don’t have to think about them anymore. Liberation intensives can quickly deepen your practice in an environment that is supportive and spacious.
You bring:
1 to 4 other people with you, who both witness and participate in supporting you in embodying the new skills that you wish to develop through direct interactive experience using vocalization, movement and education.
A willingness to go deep and move fearward. And an understanding and we will take things in the proper pacing and dosing for you. This could mean big movements of expression or tiny little doses, that slowly add up, and stay under your defensive radar.
This can be a vulnerable process in that you need to ask people to come and allow them to witness and support you. Receiving and taking in that they prioritize your life skill development, health and wellbeing.
Each person who accompanies you will hold a part of your experience and you can return to them again and again to ground and practice what you learned. This builds a level of intimacy and mutuality between you and those that you chose to invite. Each person who accompanies you will also walk away with resources and new perspectives for their own life. Its a win win situation and well worth the investment. Then you move ahead with all the skills you’ve learned and apply them in your daily life until such time as you wish to come back and do another intensive.
Some groups have chosen to come quarterly with a different person in the receiving position each time so that they can share the support and growth potential and split the costs.
We work in the mornings from 9 until about 1 pm and the rest of the afternoon is up to you. This usually includes a Saturday and a Sunday, combined with a Thursday Friday or Monday Tuesday.
