Inside each of us are places of light and places of dark. In the light we connect with the outer world, we connect with what’s good in ourselves and others. In the dark, we find our soul. When we don’t know its ways, we struggle against this darkness. However, as we learn to be at home in our inner darkness, the presence of our soul emerges. In this dark we find peace and rest and the state of being connected to Truth.

As we come to know our soul’s qualities, we find a deep sense of relaxation coming into daily living. There isn’t any question of being good or bad, there is no struggle against our own nature. We know we can allow the movement of our soul to come out into daily living, and this movement will bring us the love fulfillment we are looking for.

The Alchemy of the Soul is a gathering for sensing, appreciating, and manifesting the unique soul inside. It teaches skills for finding and befriending the inner darkness. It teaches a way of being so present with our inner darkness that the soul releases its love and light. You will learn the feel of your soul’s presence and the taste of its love. You will learn the signature of your love quality, how it manifests, how to ground it in the body. You will also find guidance for manifesting your soul in daily living, simple ways for being true to the inner play of dark and light.

In the first nine months of your life, in your mother’s womb, you were connected with your mother and yet in deep silence. There was no separation, only oneness. When you become silent again you fall into the womb of existence, silent and yet connected.

The nervous system develops during the first two years of our life. According to the newest discoveries in brain science, this development is closely affected by early bonding with the mother and father. If this bonding doesn’t progress harmoniously, our connection to our body and our being is greatly damaged. Basic traumas around issues such as separation fear, loneliness, fear of relaxing, fear of not getting our needs met, mistrust, all these are closely connected to these early stages of childhood.

It is possible to change old traumatic imprints in the nervous system and create new avenues and choices, so that old feelings of collapse, painful blankness or lack of body contact are replaced by zest for life, fullness, warmth and the ability to feel our body. This sharpens our capacity to create human bonds and relate from a state in which we keep our own integrity and our borders, and freely can say our opinion.

In this group we will work with embodiment through bodywork, shock and trauma healing of the nervous system and relating exercises. When the nervous system relaxes we naturally fall into meditation and harmony.
