Consciousness, Nature, and Trauma – June 2024

Everyone experiences trauma. Whether that is an opportunity for growth or a burden to suffer is directly correlated to how much awareness one can muster up. When people experience significant trauma, they frequently move into habituated states of being in order to survive that trauma. These habituated states are very useful for self-preservation in the moment and short-term. Over time there is diminishing benefit and the cost of those acts increases. At some point we need to let go of that which no longer serves us. We cannot accomplish that without increasing our awareness/consciousness.

This workshop will explore the idea that this is a transformative time. In this moment many people are concurrently stuck in 3 types of trauma; intergenerational, personal and global (societal). We have an opportunity now to help humanity by addressing Qi in such a way that it creates the possibility of increased consciousness.

We will also be looking at the 8 Extraordinary Vessels (8 EVs) as a powerful tool for increasing consciousness by activating the Observer. Using these vessels with intent allows us to offer the possibility of restoring the jing-shen relationship. This may help our patients to regain their sovereignty by supporting their ability to see themselves in the habituated states and then choose differently.

This 2.5 hour workshop is highly interactive. In addition to lecture, there will also be breakout sessions for attendees to work on case studies together.

Course Objectives:

1. Participants will be able to recognize trauma at all 3 levels of qi
2. They will be able to see the primary trauma pathology in each of the 8 EV
3. Participants will be able to create simple & effective 8 EV treatments
