The Work
In The Deepest Expressions of Ourselves… We Transform and Go to New Places in Our Lives. ~ Liam Blume
In each group session you?ll experience Radical Aliveness group process work for building a better relationship with yourself and others (i.e., partners, family, co-workers and society).
Together, as a group, we?ll come to know one another. Connect in ways that help us address and release negative emotions, energetic blocks in our bodies and beliefs that hold us back from following our impulses in life. We?ll connect to our higher self and from that place experience ways in which to take more risks in moving forward with?our life?s passions and build a deeper relationship with self and others.
In this three part series, we?ll take 3 hours per group session to explore and feel in to our bodies and minds for emotional clearing and discover new insights about ourselves, others, and the world we live in.
