Open to all interested participants

During any kind of massage, the abdomen (belly) is very often superficially treated or even overlooked, however, it is where our most essential, vital organs live. It is said to be the home of our emotional brain, our energy center, the storage place for all our toxicity and one of the most vulnerable places to touch in a person.

When we learn to feel, understand and interact with this part of our body, we begin to touch the core essence of who we are and give space for our internal organs to speak to us.

Many imbalances, pains and chronic diseases are born from depletion or excess in our internal organs. When we begin to understand the emotional, physical and spiritual aspects connected with each one of them, we can connect with the energy of healing and rebalancing. In order to reach this place, we need to learn how to touch and to listen.

This course will approach the belly using a variety of techniques from the craniosacral technique, Chi Nei Tsang and TaoTouch CNT however, in the end, the most important thing we are going to learn is how to tap into our intuition and to begin the process of self-healing. This requires that all participants are open to look into the mirror of themselves on a deeper level.

This course is open for absolute beginners in therapeutic touch and is likewise a complementary tool for bodyworkers to go deeper and have more healing tools in their toolbox.

During this course, we will learn about:

Mindful touch/listening / Applied Cranio Sacral / Chi Nei Tsang sequence with oil / TaoTouch Chi Nei Tsang without oil /
Cleansing techniques / Development of intuition & channeling / Creating sacred space / Energetic cleansing /
Microcosmic orbit / Guided meditation
