What is Nurturing?
It's a supportive mother energy many times matching the experience or traumas from much earlier in life.
What is Intuitive Body Unwinding?
It is a facilitated experience where together we feel the movement that your body wishes to engage in and supporting that movement. It is accessing the connective tissue (fascia) strain patterns and supporting the bodies guidance as to the way it chooses to release itself. Some times very subtle other times a bit like an ecstatic dance.
How are emotions cleared?
The journey of allowing the body and emotions to guide us to our unhealed areas. Opens the possibility of processing thru the pain that we were not equipped to deal with in the original situation. The things we tucked away deep inside that never left us.
How to use that guidance to trade baggage for freedom?
Takes us back to the 'feeling thru' technique. Which is very simple, and yet often misunderstood, it's the act of feeling every feeling, both physical in our body and our emotions(fear, sadness, loneliness, pain, loss, pressure, or anger, etc.).
It starts by allow ourselves to feel as deeply as we possibly can, and simultaneously 'let go of' or release all stories or reasons we think we might be having the uncomfortable feelings. This is key!!
The change or transition will happen automatically, as ones being processes the feelings themselves, and we will feel the shift.
A note about anger, anger appears to be primarily a cover feeling, used to give us a tranquilizer or energizing like effect and block us from the true underlying feeling, so if that's your emotion, be aware that you will need to stay with the deep feeling process until anger gives way to something much deeper, that new deeper feeling is the one to then sit with until it clears.
Happy clearing! I have found this simple process, to be so effective and transformative, that it eliminates the need for most, if not all behavior modification exercises.
How long shall I stay?
This is a very individualized answer of course.
The Sanctuary is not intended for single session appointments
From our experience it takes at least 3 days to really get into the deeper layers both in the body and emotionally as well as simply adjusting to the slower pace simplistic living. This is designed to be an interactive life experience.
That said 3 days is a minimum recommendation.
Preferred is at least a week.
How intense is a stay?
Typically it's a rather intense time. Our guests are seeking life transforming experiences with deep healing and processing. However you can always adjust the intensity level.
It may include up to 2- two hour sessions per day as well as meditative/ processing practices and group life interaction and sharing.
We are very caring and understanding during the process.
What about nudity?
Nudity will take place with the intention to heal fear, shame, judgment, and guilt around our body image, sensuality, and sexuality, and as a way of exploring our individual and collective humanity. It is always voluntary.
