What is the workshop about?
- Who is it for: Everyone
We are already taking bookings for the next edition of the Training for Transformation starting in 2025. Full details available soon. Apply now to join the waiting list :)
Our bodies reveal our lives. This is a rare opportunity to learn what yours says about you. Much of our suffering is created by unhealthy patterns of feeling and acting that helped us survive the traumas of childhood, but then got stuck in our bodies.These patterns are not our true self: They cover up our true self and prevent us from shining.
The understanding of how these survival patterns show in our bodies was originally developed from the pioneering work of Wilhelm Reich by Alexander Lowen. Lowen related character types to particular body shapes and structures. He created a map showing five main ‘Body Types’. This map both shows us where we got stuck and how we can eventually free ourselves and return to the present moment.
We will spend a whole day on each body type, learning experientially what each character type feels like from the inside.
This work is illuminated by the understanding of meditation: that there is a place of pure presence inside each one of us, beyond all protective adaptations and character types.
In this workshop you will explore:
- You will learn to recognise each ‘body type’ and the story it tells.
- You will learn tools for ‘reading’ what the body has to say.
- You will get a deeper connection and understanding of your own history
- You will learn the specific steps on the journey of healing for each body type – the risk and challenges each person needs to take, the issues they need to focus on, the things they are likely to want to avoid.
- You will learn to see the essence of a person, not the armouring. To see the love and aliveness deeper inside, beyond the defences we all use. You will learn the characteristic inner potential of each body type, and how to support that potential to be liberated.
