Holistic Groups and Workshops to Enhance Connection, Growth and Wellness

Thanks to the discoveries made in psychology and neuroscience over the last decades, we now know how fundamental it truly is for our overall health and wellbeing to spend time with others who are emotionally attuned to us and with whom we can share moments of compassion and mutual support.

Engaging in group work can offer us a type of support and connection that enhances any kind of individual healing work we might be doing on our own or in individual therapy or coaching.

While some approaches certainly work better for us than others, what is most important is that we connect with other people who are wanting to develop greater love and compassion for themselves and others and to become more healthy and whole, just like us.

Feeling Seen by others with compassion and understanding who have also chosen to undertake a journey to improve their lives is encouraging and supportive, and where instead we encounter challenges and triggers, we have an opportunity to work through them with guidance and care.

Think of how a choir works. Each person in the choir has a unique voice, and is a unique individual, but together create a beautiful sound that they could not create on their own. This is why coming together to do group work can be particularly powerful: it not only creates an energy that is greater than what we can create on our own for our own personal benefit, but it creates a harmony that has ripple effects that propagate outwards to others, as well.

Some of the more specific benefits are:

– learning to listen and to give and receive support and compassion without judgment, attachment or the need to control.

– connection with others while learning what healthy boundaries look and feel like.

– practice interacting with others in new ways that make you feel empowered, whole, and ever more true to yourself – so you can bring that into all your interactions with others and your important relationships in your “real life”.

Through the years I have worked with many different approaches for group work, and am currently offering: 

Family Constellations Workshops – These workshops help develop both an awareness of your intergenerational family dynamics and how to resolve them for your personal wellbeing, and of how group energy can enhance the healing process. They are excellent containers for developing awareness of your mind-body-intuition connections and how to tune into them for greater strength in your daily life and in all relationships.

Forest Bathing Workshops in the Southern Kettle Moraine – Forest Bathing is something more than just spending time in nature. Through a combination of learning about the life of the forest and some grounding techniques, you will experience the forest – and yourself – in a new way.
