Yoga and Bodywork - Integrating Asana with Hands-On Discuss the connection between either applying bodywork techniques in the yoga class/private session, or between yoga and bodywork as seperate but synergistic components of mind-body healing/spiritual practice. Your experiences as student/client and/or as practitioner are welcome, as are theoretical perspectives that inform your perspective.	2	7	Re: Bodywork Compliments Yoga Beautifully!

Yoga and Therapy: Intention and Depth Some people think that Eastern practices like Yoga and Meditation are somehow at odds with Western pratices like Psychotherapy, but many growing-edge practitioners and students have been recognizing the complemantary nature of these related disciplines. Discuss the connection between yoga and psychological process, either through your own experience of emotional healing/psychological awareness in yoga or how yoga has been part of a psychotherapeutic process for you or your students/clients.	4	13	Re: Hello Everyone May 3, 6:48 PM by Julian
Bodywork and Therapy: Mind-Body Process Most psychotherapists do not touch theor clients. Most bodyworkers do not talk with their clients. Some growing-ege practitioners have been exploring the relationship between dialog and touch, mind and body, deep emotional release and cogntive awareness, physical pain-syndromes and psychological issues. Discuss your own experience of these relationships as either client or practitioner, or share any of the theories relating these disciplines that inform your perspective.	2	23	Re: The Psyche Lives in the Body May 3, 6:49 PM by Julian

Healing Trauma: Mind-Body Perspectives Somatic Pscyhology, Reichian and Neo-Reichian approaches, yoga and/or bodywork as vehicles for trauma work. Any experiences as a practitioner or client and/or any theoretical perspectives are welcome!	3	1	Kids, Art and Trauma Mar 31, 2007, 6:04 PM by Daate
Healing Breathwork: Mind-Body Energetic Altered States This is a board to discuss experiences of Holotropic Breathing, Rebirthing, Shamanic Breathwork, etc... Breathwork usually incorporates deep sustained breath for long periods of time while reclining with eyes closed. Usually fairly loud music programmed specifically for the arc of a breathwork "journey" is used. Breathwork can be a potent initiation into energetic experience and altered states of consciousness in which deep emotional healing and spiritual openings are possible. Please share experiences as a facilitator or participant in group or on-on-one settings. Also please include any overlap/relationship with bodywork, yoga or psychotherapy.	1	7	Re: My experiences of breathwork Mar 27, 2007, 8:50 AM by Raven

Great for yoga teachers and serious students, psychotherapists, bodyworkers and people working through, or supporting others in working through trauma. The training is a full spectrum integration of the above elements, capably held by Hala Khouri M.A. and Julian Walker. See here for a brief overview of the schedule.

What does an integrated vision of 21st Century healing look like?

Breath, Movement, Touch, Dialog.

Intention, Energy, Structure, Process.

Trauma, Pain-Syndromes, Mind-Body Connection.

Yoga, bodywork and psychotherapy represent a potent triad of healing potential. What can yogis, bodyworkers and psychotherapists learn from eachother?

What are the central questions we are exploring together, and in our seperate fields?

How do our fields compliment eachother?

Can we create an integral dialog that allows spirituality to be grounded in the body and open to the importance of working with the deeper layers of psyche/soul?
