FEATURES OF THIS NEWLY DESIGNED COURSE
The centerpiece of this course will be learning to dance through and with the SEER process for soul retrieval. This is a core Movement Medicine practice—a strong and supportive process to release old structures that may be taking up a lot of energy and life force. Often these old ways of being were originally put in place for very good reason but are no longer needed. This is an opportunity to honor their service, release what is ready to be released and create space to call back The Gold of the Soul and dream in more resonant and soulful ways of being and living in the world. You will learn how to connect with your own Inner Shaman and use this process at your own pace, in a place of resource, safety, and the choice to practice applying these sacred tools to your day-to-day life.
