Indigenous pulse
Rejuvenate with American Indian healing traditions

Talking Circles are a traditional American Indian ceremony for two or more people to come together and speak about issues of importance to the heart, mind, and spirit in a supportive, confidential, non-judgmental setting.  This is one American Indian approach to enriching life, relationships, creativity, energy, and intuition.  It is for anyone interested in spiritual, emotional, intellectual growth, improved health and well-being.

Gabrielle Roth’s 5 Rhythms® Summer School
 

Dates: Date for next year coming soon.
This is my 4th year of teaching the 5 rhythms®, movement/dance practice in the Boghill Centre
The Burren from the Gaelic word Boireann is an area of limestone rock covering hills and valleys with meandering streams situated on the Atlantic coast. With its extraordinary array of flora and wildlife, megalithic tombs and monuments older than the pyramids the Burren creates a tapestry of colour and magic unique to this area of Ireland.

In this setting we will dance the 5 Rhythms®, an exhilarating creative movement practice. Through the dance we will become curious about the sources of our passion, investigate our essential, gentle and fun loving nature, and identify the parts of us that hold us back from experiencing lightness and joy in your life. 

Everyday we will dance each of the 5 Rhythms®.
We will be guided to enhance our creativity through the medium of collage making.
We will explore and learn about the unique landscape that is the Burren. Yoga will be on offer every morning as a way to start the day.
And there will also be ample time for swimming, relaxing and tasting the local traditional Irish music and dance scene.

This workshop is open to women and men, whether you are coming to dance for the first time or whether you have already been touched by the power of the 5 Rhythms®.

Tutors:  
Caitriona Nic Ghiollaphadraig: 5 Rhythms® teacher
Mary Manning: Yoga teacher
Sadhbh O’ Neill: Collage making teacher
Mary Quinlan: Archaeologist and Guide to the Burren

For further information about Caitriona and her teaching check her website: www.deorade.com

 
A deposit of €200 (non-refundable, non-transferable) must be sent together with the booking form below to confirm a booking. The full fee must be paid by July 11th .                   

Cancellation policy: Please note that the deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable in all cases.

This work can be deeply healing but is not therapy. Participants are strongly recommended to secure or establish the support structures within their own lives, as they must take responsibility for their own mental health and well being when embarking on intense work such as this. Having attended to this the group itself can also be a source of great joy, friendship, shared vulnerability and mutual support.

Booking Information: The number of participants on the workshop is limited so early booking is advisable. Send with deposit to Caitríona Nic Ghiollaphádraig, Finisglen, Recess, Co. Galway, Ireland.

The Practice of Embodied Leadership

Date: New date to be arranged.
In this experiential workshop Wendy Palmer, creator of 'Conscious Embodiment' offers:
a profound approach to personal and professional leadership grounded in

Wendy Palmer

She is a sixth degree Black Belt in Aikido and she teaches Aikido at Tamalpais in Corte Madera, California.

For further details see http://web.me.com/wendyepalmer/Conscious_Embodiment/Home.html

Conscious Embodiment

Conscious Embodiment draws on the traditions of Aikido to offer simple yet deep techniques that help you recognise how your mind and body habitually react to pressure, and to access more skilful and unified responses. It works with three critical energetic competencies that support the development of leadership presence:

Inclusiveness - the ability to use the quality of energy presence to inspire people and energise a project;
The capacity to listen - the ability to let someone know they have been genuinely heard;
Action without aggression – the ability to speak and act, powerfully and magnetically.

Conscious embodiment offers physical practices and tools to increase somatic intelligence – the unification of mind, body, emotions and intuition.  It brings a holistic understanding to leadership and increases our capacity to act with more integrity and our ability to influence the world.

Workshop Learning Outcomes

Insights into your personal reactive patterns and limiting assumptions
Tools and practices that help you increase your presence, confidence, compassion and sense of humour as you deal with change
An approach to synchronize the body's energy with what is being said, bringing unity and clarity into action
Increased capacity to live with paradox and the tension between opposites
A way to recover balance and clarity when faced with moral, business, and political dilemmas

Booking and Accommodation

Cost:  €375- inclusive of meals and accommodation; €575 corporate rate.
