How
did the rose Hello again and Happy Summer Solstice! As the light grows to its fullest, we have an opportunity to care for the plants in our gardens and to pull up old weeds. It is a time to let go of old thoughts and behaviors that no longer serve and to nurture the new growth that is coming to fruition. May this season bring to you all the joy and deep journeying towards your goals. I am particularly hopeful that as a community we can support each other to bring about real change in our personal, collective and global lives. As always, it begins with me. I am delighted to announce some new workshops and opportunities to move, create and deepen our connection with life.
ART TO HEART EDUCATION SPIRAL OF HEALING TRAINING 2008-2009 Supporting your journey of awakening to health and wholeness in a fun, enlivening and creative way, is the intention of this 12-day somatic and creative arts training. You will learn to walk the Spiral of Healing, access resources, create safety and build boundaries and protection. You will also learn to prepare and strengthen your awareness of and relationship with your body, journey through your chakras or energy centers, and retrieve and re-member aspects of yourself.
The 12 days of the training are on weekends throughout the year
in Sebastopol, California. I am happy to begin new trainings in
other locations. The Spiral of Healing training is the first year
of a two-year certificate program. The cost of the first year training
is $1,800. Academic credit, CEU’s and partial scholarships
are available. Visit my website,

MOVING INTO JOY! TRAINING 2009
MOVING INTO JOY Year
Two of The Spiral of Healing Training
In those stressful times of both personal and cultural trauma, our biggest resource is our connection to bodily wisdom. By listening to its unique language, we can reclaim our personal power, transform our experiences and live the lives we were born to live, in love and gratitude.
We all know someone or are someone who has been through a traumatic experience, whether it be an accident, medical intervention, deep loss or abuse. Why do some people more easily heal from their experiences while others seem unable to move forward in their lives?
In this 12 day training, we will focus on the physiology of trauma, with emphasis on the autonomic nervous system, and its resolution using the creative arts therapies and body wisdom. We will explore our bodies as the repositories for both wounding and healing, guiding us from blocks into breakthroughs and pain into wellness. We will address both shock and developmental trauma, and how to work with each. And all that we do will support our moving into our joy.
In December, 2007, I began the second year of the Spiral of Healing Training, which is open to anyone who has completed the first year. The training offers practical tools and processes for working with trauma personally or professionally. Each group is limited to 10, to allow for safety and community building. I am very excited about creating a true path for this work in the world. The cost of this year-long training is $1,800. Academic credit, CEU’s and partial scholarships are available. The weekends are:

CREATIVE APPROACHES TO HEALING TRAUMA
We all know someone or are someone who has been through trauma, be it an accident, medical intervention, deep loss or abuse. Why do some people easily heal from their experiences while others seem unable to move forward in their lives?
This 2-day introductory seminar focuses on the physiology of trauma and its resolution using body wisdom and the Creative Arts Therapies. Special emphasis is placed on the physical and behavioral aftereffects of trauma and how the nervous system stores and releases traumatic memory.
Offering useful skills in assessing and working with self and others who exhibit traumatic aftereffects, this course is helpful for therapists, nurses, teachers, parents and others interested in exploring the connection between body, creativity and healing.
