Art of Embodied Facilitation 
for Space Holders
Part 1: Self-Work ~ Self-Care

Who is this For?

​​

This course is designed for “space holders” across industries and modalities, including: coaches, teachers, facilitators, community leaders, organizational leaders, and healers. 

​​

This course is for you if you are committed to offering an Emotionally-Intelligent & Trauma-Sensitive approach to your work with others and you realize that this begins with YOU! = Self-Work

This course is also for you if you recognize that holding space for others can be HARD, and that Self-Care & Integration are essential for your well-being, longevity, and ability to show up as your highest self. = Self-Care

 

And finally, this course is for you, if you are ready to go beyond the “thinking” mind as your primary source of insight and self-regulation, and go deeper into the Wisdom of the Body, the plasticity of the nervous system, and the insights provided by the “felt-sense” of your lived experience. = Somatic (Body-based) Practices
