Authentic Relating: The ART of Being Human Level 1 with Vix
2024 | June 28 - 29
Welcome to the ART of Being Human Level 1: Embodiment Edition - a two-day immersion into the practices of Authentic Relating and embodiment.
Imagine being yourself and speaking your truth at any moment in your life. Imagine having grace under fire in times of discomfort, conflict, or stress. Imagine building connections and relationships that are resilient and designed to last.
WHAT IS AUTHENTIC RELATING TRAINING?
The Authentic Relating Training Level 1 is a unique and profound course that helps refine communication skills and deepen human connections across all social contexts, from the workplace to the living room, from strangers to partners, and everyone in between. The curriculum is designed using the most innovative and effective relational practices available to deliver a life-changing experience that deepens with practice.
We will practice accessible, adoptable, and engaging techniques that you can apply to your life with immediate results. Transform conflict into ease, experience communication as a doorway into presence, discover ways to increase aliveness in your relationships with yourself and others, and exercise tools that help you be seen, known, and heard for who you really are.
This course is for those who want depth, intimacy, and aliveness in their relationships with themselves, others, and the world.
WHY EMBODIED AUTHENTIC RELATING?
Because authenticity (truth, wisdom, intuition) resides in the body. Relationships occur body to body (as a meeting through our senses, all of which reside in the body). We express ourselves through the body. Our lived experiences unfold through our bodies, encompassing how we relate to ourselves, others, and our environment. If we aim to be more genuine, more ourselves in relationships, if we seek to grasp what others are conveying to us, and if we strive to better understand the disparity between what we are communicating and what we intend to convey, it all commences with entering the realm of the body.
In this training, we will immerse ourselves in the boundless realm of embodied awareness - feeling deeply, moving freely, and expressing openly - enabling you to cultivate greater skill and choice in how you engage in all your connections.
This course is truly for everyone who desires to connect with and express themselves more fully through their bodies – regardless of their previous experience or training level.
As a graduate of the ART Level 1 course, you will depart with:
The ability to engage in deep, meaningful, soulful conversations with anyone, anytime, anywhere.
A powerful language and skill set to accurately and transparently express your authentic experience in real-time, and to invite others to do the same.
The awareness to identify your true, core desires, and the ability to articulate them to others.
A profound understanding of the dignity in speaking your authentic voice, and the humility of using your eyes and ears to pay attention to – and learn from – the people and world around you.
The ability to see and reflect the essential being in others, and to gently guide them into a space in which they can be fully, wholly themselves – one of the greatest gifts we can offer each other.
A complete set of powerful tools to de-escalate conflict and to use conflict as a vehicle leading to deeper connection, understanding, and empathy.
A restored connection to childlike genuine curiosity, and a perspective that regards the world with awe and wonder.
The ability to set a powerful context at both the personal and collective levels, and a clear understanding of how influential context is in informing our experience of life.
An experience of profoundly vulnerable, intimate, beautiful connections with other participants that will leave you inspired, delighted, and heart-opened.
*Please note that this course will be held in English. Small-group and partner exercises can be done in your own language.
