Participation in this Whole Heart Connection workshop is open to everyone
Whole Heart Connection is a set of body-based awareness practices designed to help us to shift our own internal states, such that we are able to connect with the best in ourselves, with the best in others, and with the source of creative insight.
It’s All About Connection
What does it take, not to lose heart in troubled times?
What does it mean to take heart, reliably, over and over again, …so that we can access joy irrespective of circumstances ? …so that our generosity is sustainable? …so that we are able to heal in everyday life?
Whole Heart Connection is a body-based practice that draws on the wisdom of both Sufism and Chinese medicine, to help us access our deepest physical, spiriutal and emotional resources.
A Whole Heart Connection Intro means:
● Do-able practices that help us access the healthiest part of ourselves, so that we are truly living rather than just coping.
● Skills that allow us to contact the healthiest parts of others, so that our conversations and relationships are honest, simple, and generative.
● Embodied knowledge of how to shift out of pain, discouragement, and trauma into profound yet safe healing states, so that we can keep coming back to life from the deepest love and wisdom inside of us.
Come for the first time, to find out what it’s all about. Or come back and take it deeper.
For healers, WHC can help us find a healthy balance between our own integrity and groundedness and our ability to hold an open, healing presence with our clients. This allows us to be deeply of service without becoming drained, diagnostically skillful without being “stuck in our head,” and empathetic without being energetically blurry.
WHC is a translation of the Classical Chinese phrase ‘tong shen ming,’ which represents the sagely level of both diagnosis and treatment. Where can you learn more about that—on a practical, embodied level?
WHC skills vastly increase both our ability to discern the client’s patterns of disharmony, and connect with their original nature—the health at their core. When we are in touch with both the client’s illness and their health, we can needle as a revolutionary reawakening of that inner health.
This reawakening of health is the great power that is only available in a homeostatic healing system—of which you, the practitioner, are the most important part. Come hone your instrument—you!
In the event of a workshop cancellation, all tuition will be refunded. Otherwise, any refund is at the sole discretion of Perennial Medicine.
Here’s what people with rubber chickens are saying about…
In the first WHC class I took (based on the vague but adamant advice of my trusted acupuncturist), I really resonated when you talked about the flow state of feeling alive, like you are moving in synchronicity with life. I think we’ve all had those moments—but they can feel random or fleeting. I was excited to learn that there are tools I could use to access that state on purpose, to resource myself and recover from the struggles of life.
