Somatic Awareness Practice Group and Workshop Series
Workshop 1:
Your Body Shapes Who You Are - Literally!
Anchoring Lasting Change through Embodied Presence & Expanded Awareness
Date: February 22, 2020
Time: 10:00am – 2:00pm
Location: Boulder, CO
CCEs: 3.5 Core Competencies and 0.5 Resource Development
In this experiential workshop, we will explore the power of embodied presence to cultivate adaptive resilience in ourselves and our clients. As we deepen our awareness of the physical, linguistic, and emotional lenses through which we are seeing, being, and doing, we open the doorway of possibility for conscious actions and desired outcomes. We will practice coaching using this multifocal perspective to discern the interrelated factors that affect clients and their behaviors (emotions, body, language), and apply these insights to the process of designing actions that anchor lasting change.
We will tap into the magic of body dispositions/shapes to expand our capacity and presence. We’ll introduce two developmental models and provide opportunities for you to tune into your body, and experiment with somatic shaping and body sculpting. Together, we will experience moment to moment shifts in emotions, perspectives, and possibilities, as we move from our center, to various somatic edges, and back to center.
Bring your curiosity and a potluck dish to share. Dress comfortably and be prepared to have fun!
