Embodied Learning and Exploration with Rita Bozi
This unique LAB will consist of wise, kind and ancient body-based, trauma-informed
practices for the modern life of medicine-assisted facilitation. Focused on the
intersubjective relational field, embodied practices, phenomenology, neuroscience, the
ethics of gentle facilitation centred in the “optimal arousal” zone, this Lab includes
experiential dyad practices, theoretical learning, co-creative dialogue, and a shortened
medicine session demo. Reflection, direct knowledge and lived experience is encouraged.
Bring your love, wisdom and heart. And rest up for long, full days. This is an intensive!
