Core Energetics is deep, expressive work that heals the mind/body split. It can help you transform feelings of being stuck, depressed, numb, angry and isolated. Every physical tension and emotional holding is a refusal of life. We began this refusal at an early age. Growing up we learned to control pain by not breathing fully, by tightening muscles to keep from expressing particular emotions and by masking our true feelings. We learned to project an image of ourselves that was acceptable to others.

The defensive patterns from our early childhood conditioning got locked in the body and became unconscious holding. This was a great survival technique – very creative and it worked! But it’s probably not working for you now. Although these patterns began as creative solutions that provided a sense of safety they are now keeping you from living a spontaneous and open-hearted life. Using breath, movement and sound you can soften the physical holding, release the deeply held emotions and transform your pain. When the fearful hidden parts of your life are integrated you can live in the world with ease as your authenticity shines forth.
