Honouring Your Belly
This workshop is designed for women
in health care and movement arts professions

"Battle belly bulge! Attack your abs!" Our culture assaults women's bellies, casting them as shameful. We often respond by withdrawing our awareness. Yet other cultures around the world have known the body's center as our connection to Source Energy.

In this workshop you'll begin to experience your body's center as the site of your soul-power — and help your clients do the same.

In a warm and friendly setting, we'll

  • explore the significance of the body's center for healing
  • consider 5 principles for enlivening the body's center
  • learn 5 core practices for activating your soul power
  • experience 4 methods for releasing body shame and reconciling the mind-belly relationship
  • learn and practice the 7 belly-energizing exercises comprising The Gutsy Women's Workout
