“Turning emotional pain into strength”

Oftentimes when we lose someone, when a project or a dream falls apart, it’s hard for us to process the pain caused by such a loss. Pain, loneliness, despair, disappointment, irritation or betrayal are feelings we’d gladly do without.

In order to experience these feelings less intensely, we implement stratagems that generally create more suffering as we remain “stuck” with these difficult sensations.  We can deny the existence of pain, get depressed, try to explain it, avoid it, get angry, become obsessed with it or get fixated on memories or fantasies… Whatever the case, none of these options enable us to generate the strength needed to process the pain’s intensity.

Our body has a tremendous capacity to manage the pain caused by these losses. The workshop focuses on learning about that capacity.

The tools of the workshop:

The main tool for this workshop is your body. During this 6-hour course, you will conduct physical exercises to learn about how you reduce your natural capacity to process the intensity of pain. You will increase your body consciousness in order to become aware of the personal mechanism that prevents you from processing the pain. And you will acquire the tools you need to practice putting an end to this automatism so that your suffering can turn into strength.

Structure of the course:

There will be moments of explanation, demonstrations, individual practical applications of what you saw in the demonstrations and moments for exchanging.

If you don’t feel like doing an exercise, you are of course free to not do it. Your participation in this workshop must follow your own pace, without judgment and with full confidentiality.

 

Schedule: 10:00-13:00 and 15:00-18:00
