Module 1: October 2-3-4, 2020
"Energy & Consciousness"
Guest Teacher: Jana Sinyor, CCEP
Description:
In the same way that looking and listening can tell us things about what is happening in a given moment, our bodies offer additional information that comes in a different way: the language of the body is Energy, Sensation, and Feeling. Unfortunately, many of us have learned to block our sensations, doubt our feelings, and tamp down the energy that runs through our bodies, and so we miss out information that could help us understand ourselves and others. In this workshop, we'll sharpen our ability to discern what our bodies are telling us, and bring more awareness to the ways in which this information can help us in our interactions with others, and in navigating our daily lives.

"Giving & Receiving"
Guest Teacher: Laura Fafard, CCEP
Description:
As we take a journey towards consciousness we become aware of areas in our life where we need to bring all of who we are and to allow ourselves to get filled up and fulfilled if we are to realize our life’s purpose. At the root of this process is Giving & Receiving. What does it mean to give? What does it mean to receive? What is the relationship between receiving and vulnerability and how does this connect to getting our real needs met? We will explore these important questions and much more.

Module 4: March 6-7-8, 2020
"Sexuality & Attraction: A spiritual journey"
Guest Teacher: Daryl Vineberg, Psychotherapist, CBEP
Description:
Life force and sexuality are intertwined. Our sexuality and attractive forces are driven by life to create life. They are powerful forces connected to our deepest and most divine essence. As part of every human being’s journey this essence is shaped, changed and sometimes thwarted by our environment, influences, struggles and relationships. The results from these experiences create the tapestry of our sexual drives and desires and connects deeply with our life’s purpose. This raises questions such as, “Who am I as a sexual being? What are my attractive forces and how do they connect with my spiritual purpose?” In this workshop we will explore these questions and more with vulnerability, courage, truth and at times maybe even humor.

Module 5: May 21-22-23, 2020
"Spirituality, Faith & Surrender"
Guest Teacher: Lorraine Desmarais, BBSH, CCEP
Description:
If we are to truly fulfill our life’s purpose we must find our spiritual selves; we must become conscious of our spiritual journey. It is only in surrender and in letting go (and having the faith to do so) that we can make this journey. Any step that is made without surrender is inevitably meshed within a control pattern and therefore brings us back once again to the place where we are stuck. In this workshop we will explore the essence of spirituality, where we continue to resist and refuse to have faith in our divine selves and what it might be like to make a different choice; to experience the oneness of truly giving over to something far greater than ourselves.
