Intention, Awareness & Action: Explore Effortless Living with The Feldenkrais® Method

Interactive Workshop$150 fee

TELUS Whistler Conference Centre

Please register by April 29th - call Irene at 604-932-1224

To tap into your betterment as an individual and to live out your fullest potential, you must first learn to become aware of how you live in this world. From here you can learn to minimize that which is unnecessary and begin to live an existence where pure uninhibited action can flourish. These are key components of The Feldenkrais Method’s educational system of learning how to learn.

Awareness through Movement® lessons will be used in order to discover how your sensing, feeling, thinking and acting are integral to finding more elegant and effortless ways in which to live with your own body movement and your environment. By becoming experienced in noticing how you sense, think, feel and act you will become aware of how your unnecessary actions inhibit your learning. From this point your capacity for human growth and self-discovery becomes unlimited.

Yoga Nidra - Opening the potential of the mind

Interactive Workshop$75 fee

TELUS Whistler Conference Centre

To register or get more information contact Tim at 416-465-9701

The workshop introduces the mechanics of breathing and its relation to the automatic relaxation response. The interactive format with simple and progressive exercises allows even the beginner to understand the dynamic of the breath and its application for stress reduction. The workshop continues with an examination of the differing states of mind in relation to daily activities and stages of personal development. This provides the opportunity for the participant to understand the imprints (samskaras) formed upon the unconscious mind. As the workshop progresses this exploration continues with rotation of body awareness which forms concentration and exercises to develop mediation techniques. Upon reaching this understanding the use of positive intention (sankalpa) within the meditative state to reprogram the conscious mind is used to improve one’s lifestyle, remove negative blocks, habits and mental conflicts. Finally the workshop explores beyond the physical and mental planes to examine the energetic or subtle body to optimize the connection of the body, mind and spirit and in effect remodel one’s life.

Roll Your Body: Yamuna body rolling with Micheline Gauthier

Interactive WorkshopFREE

Objectives:
Release muscle tension & Re-align posture
Relax, elongate, create space in the joints

Body Rolling is unique in that it provides health, fitness and deep tissue massage all in one! In this class, using the appropriate Body Rolling® routines, participants will learn how to use a small (6 to 10” ) rubber ball to roll out tension, stretch and elongate their leg, back and neck muscles. This type of workout allows us to immediately feel and observe the release of unproductive patterns by working specific muscle groups. It empowers us to unwind and relax while creating suppleness in tight areas, activating under performing muscles and optimizing range of motion. The routines are specifically designed to match the body's own logic and order; to re-educate muscles; to stimulate bone and increase blood circulation. In the process, we experience a deeper level of physical connectivity by engaging body awareness, sensitivity and intuition. Body Rolling is beneficial for everyone – dancers, runners, skiers, cyclists, triathletes, golfers - and it's an excellent complement for Yoga and Pilates enthusiasts.

The Core

To register click here

Certified Yamuna Body Rolling Instructor Micheline's passion lies in sharing the benefits of Body Rolling while releasing old patterns and balancing body-mind energies. She's been, since 2004 , assisting individuals increase their flexibility, range of motion and mobility in private settings as well as in group classes.

"To me, it's all about self care. I give clients the tools in the form of Body Rolling routine combinations that they can adapt to suit their own particular needs." By taking control of our own therapy, we learn to be in touch with our bodies in a whole new way. We begin to recognize our body's needs and learn to effectively "work-out" in a non-exercise form.

"A Channeled Question and Answer Salon A lively, totally down-to-earth and loving channeling experience with “Essence” as channeled by Lynda Austin. The question and answer format is completely interactive and allows you to get the answers for which you have been searching. “Essence” is irreverent, warm, loving, totally non-judgmental and completely committed to answering the questions you have about your life, your world and the whole.

Whether is is a personal question -- such as “What sort of work should I look for?” (Answer: “Why would you look for “work”? If you look for it you’ll find it! Look for what gives you joy. Joy energizes you, work drains you. The energy of joy is what you manifest with and one of the things you can manifest is money.”) -- or a great universal mystery such as “What is love?” (Answer: “Love is seeing someone as they truly are and being with them in that place without judgment.”) -- Essence will help you understand what it’s all about."

See if any of those statements fit you:
• You feel ready to move on;
• you are holding yourself back in life, feeling stuck;
• your affirmations don’t work;
• You are tired of being tired and worn down;
• You are repeating same patterns again and again;
• You have done lots of ‘work’ on yourself and are still feeling unfulfilled;
• You miss a connection with the Divine, Spirit, Self…;
• You are a therapist or healer yourself;

If you resonate with some of the above, this workshop may be what you were waiting for!

Stress: Either You Deal With It, Or it Will Deal With You

The best stress-management or meditation technique in the world is useless if it isn’t practiced. And if it isn’t practical, it won’t be. This means that with today’s busy pace, we must find short stress-management techniques that can be easily plugged into our day. Otherwise, the chronic unmanaged stress that research shows is the most dangerous, can have a devastating impact on every aspect of our wellness.
