LifeArt Groups and Workshops to Enhance Growth and Wellness
LifeArt groups and workshops are created to enhance your personal journey towards greater self-awareness, health and wellbeing.
Thanks to the discoveries made in neuroscience over the last decades, we now know how fundamental it truly is for our overall health and wellbeing to spend time with others who are emotionally attuned to us and with whom we can share moments of compassion and mutual support.
While some approaches certainly work better for us than others, what is most important is actually that we connect with other people. Feeling “seen” and honored activates our brains in ways that help our entire nervous system calm down, and experience the kind of peace and safety that we all need to feel good in our own bodies and our lives.
But there is more. When we do inner work in the company of others, we learn how to connect in mutually compassionate, respectful and creative ways. These kinds of connections create Choral Energy that both supports the individual in their personal quest for healing and growth, while emitting positive, transformational energy that benefits the entire group, and beyond.
Think of how a choir works. Each person in the choir has a unique voice, and is a unique individual, but together create a beautiful sound that they could not create on their own. This is why coming together to do group work can be particularly powerful: it not only creates an energy that is greater than what we can create on our own for our own personal benefit, but it creates a harmony that has ripple effects that propagate outwards to others, as well.
Some of the more specific benefits are:
– learning to listen and to give and receive support and compassion without judgment, attachment or the need to control.
– connection with others while learning what healthy boundaries look and feel like.
-practice interacting in new ways that make you feel empowered, whole, and ever more true to yourself – so you can bring that into all your interactions with others and your important relationships in your “real life”.
Through the years I have worked with many different approaches for group work, and am currently offering:
Family Constellations Workshops – These workshops help develop both an awareness of your family dynamics and how to resolve them for your personal wellbeing, and of how group energy can enhance the healing process. They are excellent containers for developing awareness of your mind-body-intuition connections and how to tune into them for greater strength in your daily life and in all relationships.
Forest Bathing Workshops in the Southern Kettle Moraine – Forest Bathing is something more than just spending time in nature. Through a combination of learning about the life of the forest and some grounding techniques, you will experience the forest – and yourself – in a new way.
