Embodied Selfcare: A Syntropy Insight Bodywork Retreat
It is the experience of a soft healing touch that will take you into very slow integrated movements.
Gentle, supportive touch awakens the neuro-muscular system to new possibilities. It relieves habitual patterns and offering new posturing and efficient movement to all activities.
Through deep listening, both the practitioner and the person receiving go on a common exploration which can feel like a dance for two- a two-person dance- on the way to new possibilities in the body and in Life in general.
The body and mind connected in that deep state of relaxation allow the nervous system to find new pathways for a comfortable and graceful posture as well as for an open and fluid mobility with less effort.
This week-long retreat will include topics in self-healing like diet, exercise, self care, Qi Gung, meditation and some forms of hand’s on touch which could be gentle, slow, neuro-muscular education or somatic bodywork. The retreat is meant for people who are interested in going deeply into the body/mind/emotional/spiritual level of their self healing in order to benefit themselves and others.
Very nourishing and transformative for embodied selfcare -and also especially recommended for yogateachers, therapists, coaches and all who work with others.
