The WIsdom Of The Body

A basicindia project


Three day intensive workshop on Bodywork with
Rupert Sieben and Brigitte Quadflieg
December 2009
Sunday 20th to Tuesday 22nd
10 am to 6 pm

This three day intensive workshop is geared to both, psychotherapists wanting to expand their knowledge and skills, as well as to lay people interested in self awareness, through getting in touch with the wisdom of their bodies.

Bodywork theory suggests that through awareness of the body we can gain access to our past traumas and issues. It helps to identify and resolve blocks which hinder us in life. A trained bodywork practitioner for example, can tell you much about your life and character simply by looking at the way you move or carry yourself. Bodywork helps us to realign our bodies and our psyche in a way that leads to greater awareness and fulfillment. It includes dance and movement, massage, breathwork and other techniques all of which help to open up an entirely new range of experience in individuals.

Facilitators:

This workshop will be conducted by two experienced psychotherapists and practitioners of bodywork from Germany: Rupert Sieben and Brigitte Quadflieg.

Rupert and Brigitte's experience of over twenty years encompasses not only bodywork and talk therapy but transpersonal therapy and community building processes. Students of Al Bauman in the U.S., as well as of Michael Smith and Emily Derr, their work is based on the methods of Wilhelm Reich.

They are part of a loosely structured community in Switzerland, experimenting with new ways of living together based on acceptance and understanding, through authentic dialogue.
