RELAXING AND HEALING THE BODY/MIND WORKSHOP

But can a human with our infinitely more complex natures and responsibilities, ever realistically achieve the same blissful state of let-go?

And still live in the 21st century?

It's one of the questions of our age. And the millions of prescriptions worldwide for sleeping pills and tranquilizers is a testament to that fact.

The reality is, perfect relaxation is a natural human phenomenon. And it's sitting there quietly, just waiting for us to stop running around and rediscover it.

For the proof, look at a baby or an infant, before they have gathered up all the excess emotional baggage adults carry around....no wonder chronic fatigue is nowadays as commonplace as the common cold.

We have to find a way not to store up and repress our emotions, but to release and renew them...to live in the world, but not let the world live in us.

And this workshop is about finding that out, first hand.

But to begin with, it needs a piercing honesty into our innermost selves.

Stress fractures

Do you get angry at your boss, your employees or colleagues, your spouse or children, inefficient or unfriendly service people? People who are late, drivers who cut you off or drive too slow?

What do you do with that anger?

It is a proven scientific fact that every time we get frustrated and angry, whether we show it or not, we increase the risk of suffering a heart attack.

Doctors say there are three options for dealing with situations like these. Alter them, avoid them or adapt to them.

One way or another, stress has to be addressed.

Beat stress, or it will beat you

Firstly, it is important to understand the mechanisms of our bodies and minds.

During this workshop, will explore the stress cycle that automatically kicks into our systems every time we feel threatened, and see that it can be triggered even by an insult or a rejection.

We will then learn powerful 'de-stressing' techniques to reduce the effects of these patterns and avoid this damaging cycle kicking in the first place.

There will be practical awareness exercises, meditations and hypnosis techniques that you can take away and use to transform your daily life.

So you can be relaxed yet alert in your body and your mind, even when the going gets tough.

The Inner Beauty Process

External beauty treatments are only skin deep. The most expensive treatments can't cover up the harassed, stressed, anxious or fearful expressions most people wear unconsciously.

We have heard that "Real beauty comes from within", and "Beauty on the outside fades, but beauty on the inside lasts forever". What exactly is this "inner beauty"?

Most people describe it as, "a sense of joy", "peace", "grace", "a quiet strength", "a loving presence", "enthusiasm", "self-assuredness", "poise".
These are attributes which we have all felt at some time in our life, but have lost touch with in the grind of day to day living. Instead, most of us are living with very limiting and critical concepts about ourselves. In fact we are our own worst critics, particularly about our appearance.

This process is designed to give you the tools to reconnect to these inner qualities, to find the inner peace and joy which radiates as "inner beauty", and to change the quality of how you live your life. You will also learn how to relax your face to appear more serene, and to relax your body to be more supple.

Unfinished Business.

We all have unfinished business, or incomplete experiences, with some people – and as long as we do, we cannot let go of them. They continue to haunt our thoughts and waste our energy. And we cannot be completely available for other people and experiences.
Only when an experience with someone is complete, can you say goodbye easily. If you have not been total, if you have left things undone, or if you have regrets, you will grieve endlessly. And all our unlived experiences accumulate to become heavy burdens.
This course is an opportunity to learn how to have a completion, a closure, with someone, even when we no longer have actual physical contact with them.
