The body is an under-used channel of learning. Listening to the body gives us access to this area of expertise, expands our ability to have insight about ourselves and others, and trains our bodies to move through difficult emotional states. The foundation of Physical Intelligence is the relationship between emotions and the body. In this workshop we will explore emotional polarities inherent in a range of personality styles (based on the Enneagram) to give an experiential understanding of different ways of being in the world.

  • Training mindfulness and the inner observer
  • Noticing, responding to, and using the body's intelligence
  • Listening to our bodies and engaging will
  • Developing empathy for our own & others physical and emotional weaknesses
