This past Tuesday, I was teaching my second BodyMaster Training class. We met at the beautiful Hotel Nimb in Copenhagen, Denmark.
It was great to feel and experience a heightened level of service and aesthetics, as opposed to another location we usually used, and how all this had a different effect on the participants.
My intention for the day was to get the women to understand on a deeper level what it takes to realize, release and heal traumas in themselves as well as in others.
I hadn’t talked long before several of the participants were in tears. Some of them cried and released a lot. They were finally willing and able to feel themselves more, and with that comes a heightened focus on what works and what doesn’t in their lives.
I gave the women different exercises, where they had to use each other as guinea pigs. In doing that, they got to step into their role as a powerful and loving healer.
One of their homework assignments for the following month is to practice ‘putting in the knife’ – which means putting a strong spot on the trauma – and then healing the trauma using a step by step process.
In order to be a great BodyMaster, we need to balance both the feminine and masculine energy within ourselves. It takes courage and the sharpness of a laser beam to spot the cause and release the trauma. For that, a balanced masculine energy is required.
As we are all open and while releasing the trauma, it takes mothering, listening and self-insight to ground the particles and close the wound. In doing so, a balanced feminine energy is required.
It was a wild day where we got the opportunity to put what we learned in theory into practical use, thereby realizing, releasing and healing old traumas.
As I walked home that night, I could feel how we had all opened doors to new rooms that we discovered in ourselves that day. I felt gratitude and the gentle hum of weariness that often comes with deep healing processes.
