Details:
We will use the framework of the Chakras to support the nurturing of our inner gardens.
The chakras are like different elements of a garden and in order to grow a beautiful abundant garden we need all the chakras to be flowing and in balance.

When one chakra is over activated and another frozen or numb we get stuck and create dis-ease. It becomes more difficult for us to realize our potentials and manifest our dreams. When all the different aspects of ourselves are in flow then it is much easier to manifest that which our heart desires. 

For decades I have been incorporating the chakras (energetic, physical, psycho/spiritual centers) with my contact improvisation and yoga classes and workshops. I love using the chakras as a framework because it is a large enough container to hold body, mind and spirit and yet specific enough to work with the mind, body and spirit in very detailed and precise ways. Some people associate the word chakra with something very esoteric. My approach to the chakras is very palpable and grounded. I believe each chakra is a doorway into particular aspects of our embodied human experience. For example, when our throat chakra is open it is easy to speak our truth and when it is not it can feel like there is a lump in the throat. If someone desires to feel more connected to their spouse it may be that the throat chakra is stuck and their needs to be more flow with truth telling.

Although this workshop is online, embodiment is still central to the workshop.  We will not just be staring at the screen!!! 

We will move, we will listen to the intelligence of our hearts and bodies, we will discover old beliefs and held energies that no longer serve us and practice physical, mental and emotional skills to create more flow through all the energy centers of our body. Meditations, visualizations, movement, self touch, partner exercises and group sharing and witnessing will all be part of our journey. When there is flow we can transform and create that which our heart desires.

Week 1
Overview
Shared commitments to support a safe, confidential container for positive growth.

I’ll guide you in an inner process to choose an area of your life that your heart desires to nurture, grow, blossom and transform such as relationships, work or health.

Each subsequent week we will focus on one of the 7 major chakras as a lens through which we create more fluid connection with ourselves, to others and to life.  Working from the ground up we expand our ability to listen to ourselves and others so that the flow of life energy can move effortlessly through us in support of manifesting our heart's desires.

The following themes gleaned from the 7 major chakras will weave their way into the course:

Week 2
Earth
Creating and deepening a felt sense of safety and belonging and welcoming spirit into body by grounding with the earth, nurturing with self touch and focusing on the feet, legs and pelvic floor. 

Week 3
Water
Accessing the power and fluidity of the pelvis and integrating it with rest of the body.  Moving with embodied pleasure, embracing our sensuality and sexuality and expressing healthy boundaries.

Week 4
Fire
Activating the power of the solar plexus as a channel to connect with our self worth and autonomy while being relational. Taking inspired action as a means to develop courage, self confidence and growth.  

Week 5
Air 
Accessing the power of the breath and connection to the heart to nurture loving presence and flow with giving and receiving.  Cultivating practices to listen to the intelligence of the heart and developing an attitude of gratitude and care with ourselves and others.

Week 6
Sound and Vibration 
Freeing up the neck, throat and jaw to open self expression. Speaking truth to self and others, accessing the power of words spoken both internally and externally.

Week 7
Light and Perception
Using the power of our intuition and visualization to develop heart brain coherence to manifest our heart's desires. Using the physical eyes and imagination to give more depth to our perception. Practicing the power of witnessing and being witnessed both internally (mindfulness meditation) and with others. (meditation in action)

Week 8
Source
Opening to the Creative Mystery, Source, Nature, Infinite Space and the Quantum field. Integrating all parts of the body, mind and spirit so that the life force flows freely. Letting go of ego control and letting in Universal Love though meditation, prayer and/or conscious connection with nature.

The power of the group will help us transform areas of ourselves that we could not access by ourselves. We will each rise higher as we witness and sponsor the flowering of each other’s true essence.

We will take daily actions to realize the blossoming in the area of life that we most want to transform. Together we will grow beautiful gardens.

“Alicia, thank you for the deep exploration into our ‘moving truths’. I enjoyed the workshop immensely, loved how the framework was laid and held in a grounded yet extremely spacious way. My experience was one of safety and expansiveness, a combo that really works for me to explore the story/song/revelation that is moving through my body, my tissues, my cells. Deep! It was a joy and honor to work with you and I look forward to more!”
