Tai Chi Chuan has been known for generations as an exercise for longevity and relaxation and is now amazing contemporary researchers with results of enhanced immune systems, better balance, more flexibility and strength. This exercise, suitable for all ages and body types, is a moving meditation that centres and calms our minds as well as being a form of healing, of self-defense, and physical re-education.

Dr Raymond Castellino, DC has developed these birth process workshops for adults out of his work with babies, infants and families. The nature of working in small groups enables us to transform material that inhibits the fulfillment of our potential — our birthright. Working somatically within this process workshop setting can have deep, profound and often comparatively quick resolution to issues that have seemed to resist other therapeutic attempts.

The workshop setting offers the opportunity to uncover, explore and support healing, with understanding and compassion, our own prenatal and birth imprinting. By connecting to this early layer of physical and emotional experience, within a safe, sustaining environment, there is the potential to repattern our bonding and attachment, clarify, ease, and transform early trauma and current unsupportive reactions. In small group settings (no more than seven participants over three days or two days with four or five participants), each participant is supported in his/her exploration of whatever issue they choose – somatic, early life trauma, pre or perinatal issues, relationship, etc. This in turn can offer us more choice around how we respond to our relationships and open us to deeper, more loving experiences.

This workshop is experiential in nature and is not offered as training. It provides an opportunity for participants to deepen their level of awareness of prenatal and birth process.

Each participant is required to be in attendance for the entire workshop as s/he is an important part of the surround. The initial phase of the workshop is about developing a safe and nurturing environment, then each participant has the opportunity to work on their chosen issue as the remaining members provide support with and under the direction of the leader. Upon application for this workshop participant will be sent a questionnaire. Answering the questions will begin the personal preparation for the workshop.

The field of Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Therapy has grown from research showing that babies within the womb, during birth, and post natally feel, have consciousness and memories, and react specifically to their experiences. These experiences greatly affect not only early childhood and development, but continue all the way through our lives into adulthood. They inform us and follow us throughout our lives. These early responses that go so deep are developed while we are still pre-verbal. If they are traumatic much of the work to resolve such trauma must occur on the pre-verbal level. Working somatically within this process workshop setting can have deep, profound and often comparatively quick resolution to issues that have seemed to resist other therapeutic attempts. Process workshops are excellent ways to work with such issues.

This workshop setting offers the opportunity to, with under- standing and compassion, uncover, explore and support healing of our own prenatal and birth imprinting. By connecting to this early layer of physical and emotional experience within a safe and sustaining environment, there is the potential to repattern our bonding and attachment and clarify, ease, and transform early trauma and current unsupportive reactions. Each participant is supported in his/her exploration of whatever issue they choose – somatic, early life trauma, pre or perinatal issues, relationship, etc.

Tuition is $600. Upon application and deposit the participant will be sent a questionnaire. Answering the questions begins the personal preparation for the workshop.

The practice of deeply exploring our sensations, our actions and interactions, can guide us back to our natural resources and lead us to more authenticity and vitality. In this workshop, participants will explore their sensations and responses internally and externally, in relationship with others, with nature and with our human nature. These explorations can bring a trust and security that may assist us in finding the ability and pleasure of responding more sensitively and authentically in our lives. As we find our natural vitality we can relate more fully with others, find peace and satisfaction in our selves, and the ability to extend it further into the world. Time to rest, swim, play, and enjoy beautiful Cortes Island will be an integral part of this workshop.

We are naturally born as vital, fully sensory beings. Traumas, tensions, even some education can diminish our vitality, creating unrest and insecurity in our lives. Sensory Awareness – the practice of deeply exploring our sensations, our actions and interactions, through practical sensing experiments – can guide us back to our natural resources and lead us to more authenticity and vitality. Through Sensory Awareness we can recover ways of living more fully in the world, rediscovering the wisdom and interconnection of our whole selves and reclaiming our natural being.

In this workshop, participants will explore their sensations and responses internally and externally, in relationship with others, with nature and with our human nature. These explorations can bring a trust and security that may assist us in finding the ability and pleasure of responding more sensitively and authentically in our lives.

How we come into contact with people, physically, emotionally and energetically lays down patterns for how our relationships will develop. How we are in touch with ourselves patterns how we will be with others and whether our presence is healing or challenging. This workshop will focus on clarifying how we are with ourselves, how we come to be with others, and how we can work on healing, helping and supporting. Focus will be on physical as well as other levels of touch. Register with Judyth through this website or with Hiroki Yamaji: hiroki.yamaji@btinternet.com
