Integrating Body and Soul
With Gena Rho and Lori Dalvi
November 15 - 17, 2019
A GUEST PROGRAM
Our weekend together will be a unique blend of Shamanic energy healing and Somatic movement. Both modalities delve into the unconscious, or that which is unknown to us, and offer us ways to integrate body and soul. What we expose ourselves to, either by choice or default, has an impact on our system. Our challenge is to stay with ourselves in balance, in joy, and in line with who we are.
The somatic perspective is an experience of our physical body from within. Through gentle moving meditations we will learn a highly effective method to rebalance, stay with our selves, and find freedom from physical tension and pain.
Shamanic energy healing is an ancient technology. Through ceremony and ritual we come into right relationship with our selves, our world, and Spirit.
We will be curious, creative and playful explorers as we integrate body and soul through these two powerful modalities. We hope you’ll join us.
