Course Title: The Self Behind the Symptom: How Shadow Voices Heal Us - At Kripalu, March 15-18, 2009

Description:

Underneath many physical or psychological symptoms, a part of you is struggling to be heard. Somatic therapist Judith Hendin teaches a process that uses subtle energy work, soulful movement, and insightful dialogue to hear its messages. A powerful adjunct to medical treatment, this dynamic approach can enhance recovery from a host of ailments, including musculoskeletal conditions, pain, rashes, intestinal problems, cancer, sexual dysfunction, and insomnia.

In a workshop designed for both personal and professional growth, we will use experiential exercises and demonstration sessions to

  • Gain access to the subpersonalities that make up the psyche
  • Learn to recognize your “gatekeepers”—those cultural and personal selves that protect you so well that they can hold you back from inner work
  • Delve into the body through imagery and movement
  • Discover buried “shadow” voices that offer you pure gold as you expand into who you truly are.

Everyone can learn to follow the body as a guide to important inner issues.  

            Recommended reading In the “Articles/Resources” section of Judith Hendin’s website, www.consciousbody.com, “The Energy Medicine of Selves,” by Judith, and “Embracing All Our Selves,” by Drs. Hal and Sidra Stone.
