REGISTRATION EXTENDED UNTIL FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1st.Grief in Motion: A Somatic Workshop for Moving Through Hidden Loss
In a society that often stigmatizes the expression of grief, many of us carry hidden losses that weigh heavily on our hearts and bodies. Join us for "Grief in Motion," a somatic workshop designed to help you explore and release the emotions associated with loss that may be lingering beneath the surface.
This interactive session will provide a safe and nurturing space to:
Identify Hidden Loss: Discover the various forms of loss that impact us, from the death of loved ones to the loss of dreams, relationships, or even aspects of ourselves.
Challenge Stigmas: Engage in safe and confidential sharing about the societal pressures that discourage vulnerability and emotional expression, fostering a sense of community and understanding.
Understand Health Effects: Learn about the physical and mental health implications of suppressing emotions. Research shows that unexpressed grief can lead to stress, anxiety, depression, chronic health conditions, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. In addressing these emotions, we can enhance our overall well-being.
Explore the Nervous System: Gain insights into what happens in the nervous system during grief. Understand how grief can trigger the fight-or-flight response, leading to feelings of overwhelm, dissociation, or numbness. We'll discuss how somatic practices can help regulate the nervous system and promote healing.
Embodied Movement: Utilize somatic practices to help release stuck emotions and reconnect with your body. Through guided movement, breathwork, and mindfulness, you’ll learn to honor your grief and facilitate healing.
Transform Numbing into Awareness: Explore the ways we often numb our feelings and develop tools to cultivate awareness and presence, allowing for a more authentic experience of grief.
Whether you are navigating your own grief or seeking to support others, this workshop offers valuable insights and practices to help you move through loss with compassion and resilience. Join us as we honor our experiences and find strength in movement together.
With learning and practices from multiple revolutionary approaches, SoulFly Therapy bridges the gap between healing arts, mind-body psychology, and neuroscience using the Phoenix Rising Method™ (as discovered and presented by Michael Lee & inspired by yogic philosophy, Buddhist psychology and Carl Rogers), Somatic Practice (the work of Irene Lyon inspired by Peter Levine and Kathy Kain), healing trauma through the body (as written about by Bessel van der Kolk), and The Polyvagal Theory (as discovered and presented by Stephen Porges).
No experience in yoga, alternative therapies, or being particularly flexible is necessary. All bodies are welcome and accepted.
REGISTRATION REQUIRED by Friday, November 1st.
