 This course will help you land in your body and soul with all your heart, making life’s decisions and creations more clear and rich.
I'm bringing a culmination of over a two decades of research, experience, and cultivation of women's practices. You will meet, bond and develop relationships with a small group of women and experience sisterhood and community. You will share a safe, exquisitely held, deep dive process and possibly create life-long friends! Beyond the meetings, you will be provided with assignments to deepen your relationship with the material. They will be less about “doing” and more about “being”, less about “producing” and more about “flowing” and “nourishing". A Facebook Group will be created where you can engage with all the other members of the course, and get feedback from me when needed in between sessions. If you prepay for the whole course upfront, you get a bonus of one private session with me before the course begins, to help you gain the most out of it. I will help you tune in and set the most empowered intention for yourself to get the most out of your experience! It's time for women to rise. We have been patient, we have done a lot of healing and reflection, now it's time for us to charge forward and to build anew. Do you feel the collective momentum? The energy is available to us all, and it's our to create with. What do you want to create for yourself? Let's shift the focus from what's in the way, to building the connection with the voice of heart and soul, expanding the capacity to stay present in our bodies, so we can create from our wholeness, together and in our sovereignty. Do you feel a yes to this? Is this resonating with you? If so, I want to hear from you! I want you to know the value of what I'm offering in this course, and so I am offering a free 30 minute phone call to we can explore together if it's right you. To schedule a call, please apply to participate by sending an email describing why you want to take this course, and a bit about yourself and any experience you have in workshops, groups, etc. Please share a couple paragraphs, and don't worry about grammar, just give me the juice! :) I will read your email and then reach out to schedule a chat. I look forward to hearing from you! There is a maximum of 6 women, so if you feel inspired, apply soon as this will fill up. EMAIL ME HERE  What is Healing the Divide? Healing the Divide is a day-long facilitated experience where participants - men, women, singles, couples or moresomes - share their intimate stories around sexuality in a warm and inviting space. A few of the questions that we ask: What is it like, sexually, to be a man, or how do you feel that you're expected to be as a man? What is it like, sexually, to be a woman, or how do you feel that you're expected to be as a woman? What have been your personal turning points? Our culture tends to cast shadows of taboo on the subject of sexuality, leaving this integral part of our life hidden in the dark--especially between men and women--creating a painful divide. In this experience, we hold the question: what would it be like if we could create a bridge of understanding and empathy regarding our sexuality? Some stories will undoubtedly be difficult, some joyous. Some will be about heartbreaks, pressures, loneliness, connections or disconnections; some about fear, violence, stigma, or personal victories. Everyone has a different history, but the amazing thing is how many common threads emerge. This is an opportunity to deeply listen to people across gender divides, acknowledge the differences, and yet also recognize the things that, simply as humans, we all share. If you just want to listen, nobody is required to speak. More than 1,500 have participated nationwide. For many, it has been a life-changing experience. Part of what brought Healing The Divide into existence was our belief that sexuality is an aspect of the Human Experience that has an immense possibility of beauty, connection, and bliss. Our deep wish is to aid in the freeing of that beauty, connection, and bliss. Register here: https://heal_divide_marin.eventbrite.com FLOW OF THE DAY:

HAZEL-GRACE YATES is profoundly impacted by the amount of psychological and emotional violence that has been, and is currently, being done to men, women, and individuals across the gender spectrum. She recognizes that the world NEEDS healing and comprehensive sex education. She is an unyielding stand for the end of toxic sexual shame so that humans can experience heart-centered and empowered sexuality. One way she supports this movement is by bringing her workshops to cities across the nation. Dr. Hazel-Grace is the founder of Healing the Divide. She works with individuals and couples as a Clinical Sexologist and a Somatic Sex Educator to support them experiencing the healthiest and most fulfilling sex of their lives. www.drhazelgraceyates.com  SAHAR ERIC PINKHAM, CHT - After 7 years of intensive study with the Indian mystic Swami Muktananda, Sahar delved into psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, and men's work. Recognizing the untapped potential within men, he created the series Exploring the Male Heart. Hundreds of men have experienced greater intimacy and depth of feeling in their lives from this work. Some of the men's groups that grew out of these workshops continue to this day, 17 years later. He is in private practice in Marin and Sonoma counties. www.saharsound.com/ TESTIMONIES
“What an honor to witness people expressing their amazing stories. I walked away with a great compassion for all the men and women in the room. I felt particularly tender towards all of the people who had once been children -- confused, hurt, or sad about their bodies -- and the beliefs they grew up with that have shaped who they are today. It changed the way I will interact with people and myself regarding sex and our bodies. “ - April “I am so impressed with the level of awareness brought to creating and maintaining a safe container around sexuality. Our society desperately needs more compassion, understanding, and communication, and those qualities are at the heart of this workshop.” - Jennifer Gunsaullus, PhD Register here: https://heal_divide_marin.eventbrite.com (Art piece in image by Andrew Milov) |
