Missed Opportunities: A 5 Week Group Processing Inner Child Workshop

We are offering an in-person 5 week  group processing workshop (max 8 people) to create an intimate space to support a deep dive into investigating our childhood wounds and family dynamics. Each week, we will focus on a topic to spend some time sharing, exploring, and experiencing a somatically focused activity to investigate these experiences as a felt story we hold in our bodies.  You will get a chance to go deeper with your own process, and practice activities to hold space for others. Group work can be a powerful experience of diving faster into our experience amongst the supportive witnessing and presence of others. With 2 facilitators, you will receive a generous amount of attention and guidance as we maneuver each topic. From this group, you can expect:

❋ Intentional Structure

Weekly topics with discussion and exploration on childhood relationships

❋ Collaborative Energy

Group discussion to share your experience and receive group support

❋ Expert Facilitation

A safe environment to practice and receive experiential activities

❋ A Supportive Space

Gaining a deeper knowing of your inner child

❋ Personal Depth Work

Body focused family processing

❋ Enriched Connection

General guidelines and facilitation of therapeutic touch

Come home to yourself.

Weekly Agenda Topics

Each week, we will bring a theme to set an intention and investigate to bring a deeper awareness to each part of yourself with this topic. Each week will consist of group discussion, and an experiential activity to hone in deeper. Some weeks may be more activating than others, and for the topics that have less wounding, we encourage you to listen with support and perhaps even invite in your nourishing experience to integrate and guide you.
