Students are invited for an opportunity to explore the concepts, and learn the hands-on-healing techniques of serving the dying patient. Heart2heart is part of a renewed movement in the awakening of natural death. Learn how to help people make their final transition with ease and deep meaning, and less fear.

We will explore our own emotional responses, concepts, beliefs and feelings of our losses, while working with the dying client. Additionally, we will strengthen our methods of self-care and supporting healthy boundaries in our work.

This is an interactive course that includes a blend of small group discussion, case studies, experiential awareness exercises, skill development, demonstration and hands-on practice. Time is dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing and ritual space to explore this sensitive process.

Learning Objectives

Explore ways to deepen our mindful communication skills for the end of life client and their families.
Gain an understanding of how the end of life care is orchestrated and the different professionals that are included in this process.
Discuss and practice positioning adjustments, hands-on techniques, and energy holds to safely meet the dying person's needs.

This is a model where you use more than your massage technique to provide a therapeutic session; it is a practice using strategies that strengthen your ability to facilitate a deep emotional and spiritual healing for your clients. The workshop will teach you how to address the mood, body and spirit connection in a more integrative and intuitive style that is uniquely yours. If this speaks to you, then welcome!

This one day class will assist any massage therapist to synthesize their individual modalities in to a rich and powerful session for their clients. In each unique session, the Integrative Intuitive Healing approach will help your clients uncover their own path to restoring health, recover for illness or injury, and experience relief from emotional distress that leads to ease in their bodies, peace in their minds and love in their hearts.

Learning Objectives

Practice meditation, breathing techniques and movements that will strengthen your ability to tune into the healing needs of your client.
Strengthen your listening listening skills in order to deepen your clients' experience.
Redefine and expand your own skills and abilities as a healer.
Weave together strategies to help your clients access a deeper place of healing.

Join Brooksie in a hands-on, experiential journey to move your practice to a deeper level of healing. This one day course will include self-discovery, discussion, theory, demonstration and practice session on a live person. Come prepared to transform your own spirit.
