Martial and healing arts have traditionally been taught together, as our human capacities to harm or to heal are so closely related. Drawing from Aikido, the Japanese Martial Art of Peace, this combo talk-training brings essential practical ideas and techniques to bodyworkers, therapists, teachers and healers. It will strengthen the ethical, philosophical and spiritual foundations of the work you do with people, in both individual and group settings. Come explore Aikido and Somatic Psychology practices as we dive into specifics of:
- the healing process and your role in it
- body-mind mechanics that promote healing for others while ensuring your own well-being
- crucial energy dynamics in the client-therapist relationship
- empowerment, safety and depth-healing in somatic trauma work
- creating success and longevity in your holistic career!
