Deep Integration Workshop

with Katherine Young, M.Ed., RCC

With the invitation to be deeply authentic and the safety to be emotionally vulnerable, we reconnect with parts of ourselves we have lost contact with. Having integrated deep wounding, we come more into integrity with who we are, more fully and dynamically alive. This workshop is an opportunity to heal the wounds we have endured to our own being.

When we have not integrated our wounding, we tend to live slightly (or massively) separated from who we really are. Instead, we live as we think we should be, keeping up appearances, betraying our truth to please others, split away from our own being and unaware of what is driving our habitual behaviours, repeating the same relationship patterns. It is a painful, deadening way to live.

Intimacy with others is possible only when we are able to connect with who we deeply are, be emotionally open, assertive about our needs, and set boundaries with others. In other words, we need to be able to know what we feel, what we want and need, be able to ask for it, or simply say no to others' requests. We need to be able to back ourselves up, our right to feel what we feel and make choices about our participation with others. In this safety, we can open up and vulnerably share with our partners.

This workshop uses dynamic meditation practices, psychological exercises, breathing techniques, homework assignments, and performance exercises to initiate a process of empowerment and deepening into further intimacy with ourselves.
