This week’s theme is sensational pleasure. It’s about getting into our bodies and sensations which are inherently connected to our feelings and emotions. The same practices I’m teaching to help recover from burnout are also effective for processing trauma, soothing stress and discharging emotion and intensity from the body.

So as we connect more to our bodies today and throughout this course, know that pain, suffering may accompany pleasure. This is okay, this is natural, this is how we actually release emotions and suffering from our bodies so it doesn’t get stuck and lead to mental, emotional and physical health issues down the line.

Learning Objectives

• What pleasure as medicine means
• Why rebuilding the mind/body connection is so important
• How to use mindfulness to expand pleasure
• How and why to ritualize your home practice
• A sensory awakening practice

Love is foundational for living a happy, healthy, thriving life. If you have self-love, nothing can stop you. Because when you deeply, truly love yourself you are in control of how you feel about yourself and nothing outside of you can change that!

This week is all about the power of self-love and rewiring ourselves on all three levels of the brain to experience a deeper connection to love.

Learning Objectives

• The healing power of self-love
• How to rewire ourselves for deeper love based on neuroscience
• Self-regulation and self-soothing as self-love in-action
• A sensual breast massage practice

We are all desperate for safe spaces to express and release the daily emotion and stress weighing us down so we don't end up burned out, grumpy and regretful. It is particularly healing to do this in circles of supportive women.

There’s a saying that you have to feel it to heal it and when we’ve established enough safety, enough love in our bodies, we may have things like past memories or trauma present themselves to us to be released. So if you have one of these impulses during the practice, like to kick, scream, cry, etc, let yourself do it and then come back to love and pleasure.

• The power of your primal nature and emotional health

Energy is literally the thing that brings us life. One minute a person’s heart is beating and the next it can stop. They are still the same body, but energy has stopped moving through that body. Energy is a matter of life and death but it’s also so much more than that.

Healing and behavior change isn't linear, no matter what some expert trying to sell you something says! That's why I love that this is a self-paced online course you have access to forever.
