Accessing the Unconscious Through Touch
An Introduction to Rosen Method Bodywork
with Senior Teacher Karen Roeper
The explosion of research in neuroscience confirms the importance of touch and contact for human development and well-being—for regulating our emotions and our physiology. Rosen Method Bodywork uses receptive touch and verbal dialogue to assist people in opening to long-forgotten experiences and emotions, and to release unconscious limiting beliefs.
The workshop will be of special interest to current bodyworkers, health and helping professionals, and psychotherapists. It is also intended to benefit those from all walks of life who want greater physical and emotional aliveness, and a sense of ease in being who you are. It is a prerequisite for the Rosen Method eight-day training intensive that will be held in Minneapolis, for the first time ever, October 26 to November 3, 2007.
