Feel in to Your Life… and Experience New Insights and Empowerment
Be Radically Alive in Your Approach to Leadership
Cultivate healing, vision, empowerment, and leadership on a personal, interpersonal and systemic level using a Radical Aliveness Approach.
Radical Aliveness is a healing, awareness and transformational modality that leads to action. It is a model that really supports human beings to know themselves fully – on all levels. Radical Aliveness (see its principles below) supports creating a safe space where we want participants to say ‘yes to everything’ (including their ‘No’) with the intention towards awareness, consciousness, healing and transformation.
When we have an opportunity to feel everything all the way… everything: our fear, our rage, our pain, our hate … Whatever it is… in the presence of people who are holding us and not afraid of this energy…we can find parts of ourselves that we have cut off from; that we have forgotten about; that we maybe have never even known about. At this point what starts to happen in the process is we become less afraid of all of our energy and all of our feelings. We become more able to express them in constructive ways; to understand them; to use them in relationship. In that place we can bring all of our brilliance; all of our creativity; all of our energy; because we are not afraid to let ourselves flow. We cultivate an attitude that says, “There’s nothing that can come out of my mouth that I’m afraid for you to see. Because I’ve really felt my deep goodness. And there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
With Radical Aliveness, we are really working to support people (you) to have that experience. One which makes life very powerful and exciting and wonderful to dance with and co-create in with self and others and the world around us
The Intention in the work is to say yes to all of our energy without making it wrong or shaming it; because if all of it can come out then we have the opportunity to heal; to transform; to understand; to integrate; and to use it in constructive ways for discovery.
