Core Areas
Fostering Embodied Knowing, Curiosity, Connection, and Care
We recognise that the strategies for self, community and planetary care are intrinsically linked. This approach to professional learning simultaneously grows reflexive self-care processes at the individual level whilst building a repertoire of strategies that can be applied in community and client settings. This work is then reviewed within the broader context to explore the conditions that are driving harmful behaviours and dysfunctional systems. Always grounded in body-based, trauma-informed practices, this work aims to empower people to act within their locus of control and where possible, influence systems change within their world of work and across the social and political contexts within which they live. This holistic approach brings a different kind of presence into play and invites more purposeful living into personal and professional lives.

“It is through our senses that we receive information from our internal environment (ourselves) and the external environment (others and the world). How we filter, modify, distort, accept, reject, and use that information is part of the act of perceiving.” Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen
