Online Workshop: Dec 30th 10-11:30 am

Exploring “Not Good Enough” Through Focusing

This 90 minute workshop will explore this whole territory of ‘Not good enough” through a focusing lens.

  • Maybe you always feel not good enough in some way, or struggle with the painful feelings of worthlessness.
  • Maybe you struggle with perfectionism?
  • Maybe you compare yourself to others?

This seminar will explore how the practice of Focusing can help us to:

  • Meet all parts of ourselves with compassion and curiosity
  • Meet our inner critics and judges
  • Be with anything that feels worthless or not enough.

And we will discover perhaps that there is nothing wrong with you after all!!

Deirdre Kennedy has 20 years of experience as a Craniosacral Therapist and body-mind therapist, She is also a seasoned trainer and facilitator who has spent her career supporting personal growth and transformation.

From Birth mother to Earth mother: Healing in relationship in Craniosacral Therapy

This webinar with Jane Shaw will explore relationship to self from the perspective of the mother archetype. Bringing Jungian concepts to a biodynamic craniosacral therapy landscape we will explore the world of pre and peri-natal experience and attachment. How can broken relationships be repaired through a reimagined relationship to the Mother? Often early imprints can result in fragmented relationships and split-off parts. Can an embodied BCST practice support these split-off parts to return to a relationship with wholeness?

Learning outcomes

  • Learn the fundamentals of attachment patterns, through a pre and peri-natal lens
  • Revisit BCST foundational principles
  • Understand the resonances of BCST foundations with Jungian principles, through a focus on the Mother archetype.
  • Experience somatic practices for felt sense awareness of the body’s subtle rhythms
  • Understand how BCST can support a more embodied relationship to self, other and the earth.

A Visionary Approach to Craniosacral Work: Origins and Ancestors

There is an old African proverb that goes, ‘you are who you are because of other people’. And that Andrew Taylor Still, Grandfather of osteopathy, was who he was because of other people. A European settler in the new world, his work as a frontier medical doctor, and his time with the indigenous Shawnee people, Dr. Stills legacy lives on through osteopathic and craniosacral practices today.

In this discussion David will take a brief look at the ancestor spirits of Craniosacral work, exploring how ancestry and land has shaped this healing modality, offering a deeper understanding of the interplay of spirit and physiology in our own craniosacral practices.

Please note, this presentation will include aspects of meditation. To get the most out of it please do not drive whilst listening.
