“This training is without a doubt the most comprehensive, holistic, and ethically sound I could have hoped to come across. I looked at many different trainings and coaching programs in the fields of sexuality, tantra, and embodiment, and when I read through what was offered in this training, I was an immediate FULL BODY YES!
I’m so grateful I honoured that yes as this has been such a rich, profound, and transformational journey. I’m growing in ways that bring me immense joy, knowing that I’m receiving so much more of my authentic liberated self, which is coming back online from participating in this training.
Through this first-hand experience of updating so many new versions of myself, I am blooming with excitement to be able to share this with my clients. The course is delivered in a very considerate and digestible manner. This is the kind of healing work that will help change the world. Thank you, Katie & Phoebe”

Inhabiting new ways of being
-
Interpersonal neurobiology
We teach the interpersonal neurobiology of trauma and how to support agency with ways of co and self-regulating intensity. Holding space for people braving exiled aspects of the self requires specialist training in this field especially to work effectively with people who are living with the effects of developmental Trauma. We also understand that we are always working with aspects of being human that can disable ability to participate.
-
Inhabiting new ways of being
Relational embodiment practices facilitate people feeling more of themselves in practices within a container of radical acceptance. Clients can privately inhabit new ways of being with kindness risking islands of self-acceptance that with practice have the potential to build supporting people to reach the shores of belonging.
-
Radical Acceptance
The relational embodiment curriculum of this training, includes the Wheel of Consent, Body Poem and Clean Language coaching models, supporting creating clear relationship agreements that honour, with radical acceptance, all aspects of self.
We understand that nobody needs more practice enduring the stress of over-adaption.
-
Co -creating clear relationship agreements
Practitioner Client relationship agreements are updated at regular intervals attuned with all parts of the self emerging from being hidden by shame.
Co-created practices are agreed to in stages where clients learn to participate in inhabiting new ways of being with agency and choice.
-
Courage to be seen
Under the bandage, wounds from our dark nights of the soul remain unseen and these exiled aspects of ourselves are sent back into the unseen bowels of humanity to endure continued separation until we are supported with courage to be seen with radical acceptance
-
Integration of encapsulated exiled aspects of self
Trauma shows up most intensely in relation to intimacy and sexual expression.
When we are touched or we touch another, sensory receptivity may awaken memories into conscious awareness.
Opening the senses involves discovering our limits with the intensity of affect (affect relates to visceral responses in the body). Part of the training is to work closely in supervision to support the integration of encapsulated repressed aspects of self.
-
Repair
Cycles of undigested exiled aspects of humanity are ultimately seeking to be seen from underneath the shame bandages that have been nursing them.
Being seen requires acknowledgement and understanding so we can repair and allow our remorse to teach us to learn not to harm again.
“My body is learning that it is safe to take care of myself. That I can say no and honour my limits & still belong.” - Adriana
