Course Overview:
Burnout and injury are prevalent among massage therapists. Somatic Mindfulness teaches self-care as a professional skill, making the therapist's own wellbeing the method for creating the conditions for healing, intuitive insight and clarity of purpose. Through Attuned Touch, each workshop invites discovery rather than direction, allowing the body to remember how it already knows to heal. In FLUIDITY attuned touch invites the body's inner waters and movement expression to return to their natural flow, allowing motion to emerge as effortlessly as waves in the ocean. This class is eligible for 8 CEU's to Licensed Massaged Therapists.
