Touching with deep, present listening is something many strive for in their attempts to deepen their relationships with others. This process begins with the self. More difficult than learning specialised techniques is sharpening our ability to listen more deeply to our own bodies, our ability to hear its messages, and our ability to empty ourselves of expectations and judgements. Not to mention asking for then asking for what our body needs. This seminar will dive into the beauty conscious touch can lead us to, and through exercises awaken our capacity to feel more - so that we can give more.
