talking about this workshop!
The Hero's Journey is an
archetypal path of individual transformation. It is a
map that shows the stages of our personal process of
evolution. These stages are revealed time and again in
myths and legends in all cultures throughout the history
of humanity. While the structure of these stages is
universal, the expression is completely unique for each
individual.
At different times in our
lives we are aware of a calling; a push or pull forward.
This starts us on a path of learning and growth. Along
this path we meet inevitable challenges. Confronting
these challenges forces us to evolve in new ways and
directions and brings us to a journey of self-discovery.
This journey involves crossing a threshold into a new
territory outside of our comfort zones, finding the
proper guardians (resources), and facing and
transforming inner “demons” or “shadows.”
In order to effectively
complete such a journey, we need maps, tools and
resources. The Five Rhythms®
is a powerful, body-based
dance practice developed by Gabrielle Roth. These five
rhythms-flow, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness-are
archetypal patterns that form a somatic path for
personal transformation and release the wisdom of the
body. Bringing these rhythms alive in our bodies can
help us to cross thresholds, explore new territories,
meet and heal inner demons and shadows, and connect more
deeply with ourselves and others.
This deep, innovative and
experiential program will bring together the Hero's
Journey structure with the Five Rhythms® and tools and
principles of NLP. Participants will work on areas of
change and transition in their lives, using movement to
awaken and instil needed resources so that they are
there and available for us “in the muscle.”
Participants will learn
how to:
 |
More effectively
recognize and manage the stages of change they
are experiencing |
 |
Connect with and
transform the energetic source of difficult
feelings |
 |
Overcome blocks
and move forward on their life paths with more
freedom and flexibility
|
 |
Bring more energy,
creativity and generativity into their daily
lives |
 |
Handle challenging
situations with more elegance and ease
|
