ESSENCE BODYWORK
Touching Body and Soul
with Raaji
February 20 - 24, 2012
This bodywork is a refined healing approach that invites the receiver to deeply relax into the essence, into presence through touch.
Body and psyche are connected with each other as one hence the practitioner uses communication and intuitive skills to "read the energy" of the receivers body to get a momentary picture to specify his hands-on work. Attitudes, beliefs or past events that might inhibit wellbeing can be addressed through present touch, energy work and communication. In the same time the practitioner is supporting resourced and open parts of the body to create more inner space. So relaxation can occur, melting into the presence and identification with experiences, emotions, thoughts and sensations can start to dissolve. The person is being reminded to that part which is already healthy and at home. Out of this experience something can start to grow and expand.
The Essence Bodywork hands-on techniques are joint release, long and short massage strokes and stretches. During these 5 days the massage techniques are taught and practiced and eventually the practitioner is responding intuitively to the messages of the receiver's body with his or her hands.
This training is designed for people who are new to bodywork that are drawn to this way of healing or to experienced bodyworkers who wish to include the essence, a present attitude into their work.
