This opening week will be an introduction to unlocking the wisdom of the body with energy reading, movement, breath and a developmental roadmap that opens the treasures of your soul’s potential to flourish in this lifetime.
Jim will share the four foundational exercises he’ll teach during the course:
By the end of this opening session, you’ll be equipped to begin using the tools of bioenergetics and Therapeutic Breathwork for life transformation.
In this module you’ll:
Jim will share the first theme of this course: releasing traumas and accessing the gifts of psychic awareness — and he’ll explain how intuition and spiritual transmissions are consciously applied.
As you’ll discover, the first of the six major developmental stages in your life reveal your primal attitudes toward safety from pre-birth to your first year of life. In this stage, you assess whether you feel welcome and wanted or antagonized in your body and your world.
Jim will share how the psychological and emotional atmosphere into which a child is conceived influences neurological and characterological formation.
You’ll learn exercises to help you experience your primal sense of safety — and analyze the early family dynamics and messages that reinforced your sense of safety or danger.
Jim will share the limitations of non-integration and the gifts of successful integration, explain the technique of Therapeutic Breathwork, and guide you through an experience of combining breathwork with bioenergetic movement and expression.
In this module you’ll:
Be prepared to rediscover the source within, using the gifts of compassion and understanding — while still setting boundaries for self-care and personal fulfillment. You’ll also learn to read and respond effectively to others’ nonverbal messages.
The Empathetic Nurturing patterns you formed during your first year of life connect to deprivation and abandonment. In the held-fear state, the belief is, “I’ll never get enough. ” The compensating belief then becomes,“If I love enough, I’ll be loved” or “I’m self-sufficient. ”
As Jim will explain, the child’s body takes on a posture of deprivation with a collapsed chest, affording a shallow inhale and a breath-by-breath experience of lack. The child then learns to become a caretaker to get their needs met.
Jim will guide you in exercises to experience your early feelings of sufficiency and/or abandonment and to reconnect with self-support from the inside out — while still asserting yourself in a healthy way. You’ll also practice breathwork with bioenergetic movement and expression to support inner self-sufficiency.
You’ll learn about early family dynamics and messages that reinforce abundance or depletion.
In this module you’ll discover:
Jim will explain how to own and develop the natural leadership skills of confidence and mutuality that emanate from the heart center.
Your Inspirational Leader patterns, solidified during your first to third years of life, focused on control issues in relationships.
As a child becomes mobile and explores their environment, their caretakers often control them to fit their own needs, without taking their child’s needs into account.
The child’s held-fear position is, “To give into my feelings is weak. ” The compensating belief is,“I’m in control.”
As you’ll discover, breathwork can now help you release your exhale, start to trust and feel pleasure in your more vulnerable feelings, and eventually let go and surrender appropriately with others.
Through breathwork, your head and heart work together to bring out your loving leadership qualities and release the old tyrannical control of the unintegrated Inspirational Leader.
To help you become more comfortable with vulnerability, Jim will share exercises to support you in experiencing your early feelings of being supported in independence or of being controlled. You’ll review the early family dynamics that reinforced your sense of harmony or power struggles in relationships.
Jim will facilitate breathwork with bioenergetic movement and expression to help you achieve a healthy balance between head and heart.
In this module, you’ll explore:
Jim will explain how to express authentic emotional intelligence in ways that support others — without suppressing yourself. You’ll learn how to live your life and navigate your relationships with true passion, inner peace, and self-acceptance.
The Steadfast Supportive theme, developed during the second to fourth year of life, is associated with freedom-of-expression issues.
The bodies of people with this theme take on a squashed appearance, with a thick neck, tucked-in pelvis, and a short, thick waist.
Because they’ve repressed direct expressions of anger, their muscles are under continual pressure. Under stress, they often provoke others in passive-aggressive ways.
The strengths of the Steadfast Supportive type include the ability to stay with challenges and to help others.
If you have a Steadfast Supportive theme, breathwork can help you complete and release your exhale so you’re able to directly deal with anger as you shed your experience of being under continuous pressure to please.
Jim will share breathwork practices with bioenergetic movement and expression to support your freedom of expression.
In this module, you’ll:
You’ll learn how to find and build uponyour unique blending of masculine and feminine attributes — and cultivate the courage to own your natural expressions in the world.
The Gender Balanced body patterns set in during the third to fifth year of life. The prevailing theme is gender confusion, prompting us to ask, “How do I safely express myself as a male or female?”
The held-fear posture dictates that if you assert yourself spontaneously, you’ll be rejected.
Males with this body pattern adopt a very passive, soft style, and their bodies have a rounded exterior and a compliant expression. Their true strength is often cloaked with sarcasm and covert manipulation. Females with this body pattern take a very assertive stance, and are often very competitive with males. Their bodies show a split between the upper being quite rigid and the lower being more full and weak. Their jaws are characteristically tight.
Under stress, males with this theme tend to undermine, and females with this theme tend to resort to attack. Breathwork addresses this imbalance by helping people balance the inhale and the exhale — so they can gain safety in both their vulnerability and their strength, and accept safety in their gender identity.
As Jim will explain, breathwork provides a new model of acceptance, exposing deep fears of rejection and punishment. True potential for blending your male and female sides blossoms so you can enjoy yourself as a fully whole human being and share this model with the world.
Jim will share new models of gender expansiveness, including those of transgender and gender nonconforming people.
He’ll also share exercises to help you experience your early feelings of your acceptance of gender identity and expression — and/or being rewarded for culturally defined gender roles.
In this module, you’ll discover how to:
In this closing week, you’ll learn how to bring your intimate relationships into a holistically fulfilling life path, and how to fearlessly surrender to love while still living a self-possessed life.
The Energetic Grounded theme is formed during the fourth to sixth year of life and often accompanies disappointment in intimate relationships as an adult.
Those in this state feel a deep sense of rejection and betrayal from their initial attempts to relate as intimate beings (to their parents or significant others). Their slogan becomes, “No one is going to hurt me again.” Their compensatory belief becomes, “I am a loving person who no one understands.”
Their bodies portray stiffening for the anticipated rejection of their love and are armored in the torso region. They tend to have stiff backs. Their eyes tend to be bright and they handle affairs of the world well. It is in maintaining intimate relationships that they falter.
Under stress, they quickly express anger.
Breathwork helps those with Energetic Grounded themes integrate and embody their inhalations and exhalations. Through breathwork, they’re better able to handle their underlying frustration without rejecting other people. They learn safety in vulnerability with others and let their naturally attractive, alert, capable qualities be shared in healthy, whole relationships.
Jim will share exercises to experience your early feelings of acceptance for your desires for physical and emotional intimacy — versus a sense of judgment or reaction of yourself as a sexual being.
He’ll guide you to review your early family dynamics and the messages you received to help you accept and appropriately deal with complicated feelings for a parental figure.
In this final module, you’ll learn how to:
