Seminars - Microcosmic Orbit

The source of happiness and wellness is the connection to our deeper self, life and others. Separation creates suffering. A time proven method in Eastern cultures for enhancing connection, self unfoldment and wellness is the cultivation of awareness of our energy body and the enhancement of the flow of this life force. Our energy body has a structure, and the microcosmic pathways and the Chakras are two essential aspects of that organization where body, mind, emotions and spirit meet. Going deeper into our energy system leads us to higher states of awareness and to resources of renewal, love, inner strength, vitality, creativity and freedom as well as facilitating the prevention of illness and the dissolution of limiting patterns of emotions, thoughts and behaviors.

This workshop presents an integrated, experiential and skill based approach combining Eastern and Western methods. Within a safe and healing space where we honor ourselves and can face personal obstacles, we will penetrate deeper into our being to encourage personal unfoldment by using meditation, awareness, breath, emotion, thought, healing postures, visualization, touch, movement (Qigong, yoga and intrinsic motion) and group process.

What is Microcosmic Orbit?

This term refers to a pathway that travels through the spine to the brain and down the front of the body, along with adjacent pathways. Improving the energy in this pathway helps regulate the flow into other pathways, to integrate body, mind, emotion and spirit and to enhance core strength and the function of the central nervous system. In addition, it helps balance sexual energy to the rest of the body thereby reducing sexual compulsions and inhibitions.

In the workshop we will also work with enhancing the flexibility of the spine and will explore its roll in our physical process.
