Wholebody Focusing
Combining the Alexander Technique
and Focusing
Experience the Freedom and the Support that comes from Wholebodyfocusing
Wholebody focusing is based on a combination 2 amazing techniques, the Alexander Technique and Focusing. The A.T. gives you a sense of interconnected energy flow within the whole body and a solid, supported, grounded presence. This gives the safe container to hold everything in.
Focusing gives you the insight into the emotional and psychological significance of your present physical tension patterns and blockages. So it gives the meaning, it gives an understanding, a context to the intensity of physical pain or blockage and the emotions that might otherwise just suck you in.
By having the safety of the container it is possible to stay with these uncomfortable feelings in conscious awareness and then from this position of being the detached observer by giving up all desire to fix it or fight it or run away from it.
You can create space for your inner Body Wisdom to work, to release physical tension patterns and to shift into a higher conscious perspective, a new understanding that is also a new vision of your forward moving Life Direction.
You can experience the effectiveness of WBF online over Skype with 2 experienced teachers: Alex Maunder, Alexander Teacher for 23 years & Certified Focusing Trainer & Lucie Therrien, Yoga teacher for 24 years & Certified Focusing Trainer
Cost: The first taster session is free, you are happy with the experience we can then set up a series of weekly sessions for $70 per hour.
Facing the Unknown
Easter 2012, at THe Mill Retreat Centre
Wholebody Focusing is a crucial skill at this time of accelerated planetary evolution. We are facing the beakdown of old structures that no longer work and are toxic to the health of the whole, both at a planetary and at an individual level. This breakdown can be sudden, unpredictable and very scary because it is so unknown. There are no past experiences to go by, no rules, no signposts, it is all a total new landscape. The question is how to deal with this unknown without fear setting in and freezing the flow of awareness in the moment, that can lead us forwards.
There is a skill that can be learned both on an individual and collective level that will help us to navigate a way forward into the new landscape, the new possibilities that are opening up in front of us. That skill is Wholebody Focusing, which teaches us how to release the blockages due to fear based in our past history, and then how to release this freed-up energy as a forward moving energy in our lives.
Whole-body-focusing gives you the inner support to allow this alchemy of self-transformation to take place within the safe container of the body. The consciousness shifts to a higher perspective so that ego is able to relinquish the desire to control and simply observes the situation from a more inclusive and compassionate place. At the same time, with the aid of your own inner body wisdom, spontaneous inner bodily shifts and releases can take place that can release th blocked energy and lead the whole system forward into a new homeostasis.
