Healing Trauma, Finding Peace

Join Rachel Mann at the beautiful Bridge Between the Worlds retreat center in rural Virginia to heal old traumas and find peace.  In this two-day, weekend workshop, we will work with patterns of trauma in ourselves, our families and society as whole.  Using ancient techniques from some of the oldest shamanic cultures on earth and drawing on the best knowledge provided by the western sciences, we will learn how to transform pain and suffering into peace, laughter, and ecstasy.

Do you feel stuck in old patterns related to childhood trauma? Are you caught up in ongoing cycles of conflict in your family, place of work or commuity?  Are you disturbed by the violence that seems to permeate our world?   Are you a professional who works with clients and in fields where trauma is an everyday reality? Do you suffer from chronic illness or pain and want to find a new source of healing for body and mind?

During the weekend, we will explore how our bodies and minds reflect patterns of trauma extending back through time in our ancestral lines and in the world as a whole.  We will meditate, make art, work with the the forces of fire and earth, and dance to shake off patterns that leave us feeling overwhelmed and depleted.  By the end of the weekend, we will have planted seeds of resilience and joy in our bodies  and minds that will leave us available to ecstasy and an increasingly enduring peace.
