WORKSHOPS
There are eight levels to the Love, Intimacy and Sexuality Workshops. Each residential workshop takes place from Friday evening to Sunday evening and are held in beautiful country manor house venues in Wales, Somerset, Suffolk and Kent. Each workshop is led by a female and male faciltator from the HAI team. Please scroll down this page to find out more about them...
Level 1 - Love is a
Miracle
This workshop is about Love. Falling deeply in love with ourselves and others. Learning to trust. Discovering how to share who we really are with others. Risking beyond our limitations. Healing past relationships. Growing. Expanding. Discovering the love we deserve.
“Love is a Miracle” is the first of a series of
workshops developed by The Human Awareness Institute (HAI). It
brings us back to the simple fact that everyone wants to love and
be loved offering gentle guidance to move through the layers of
pretence, negative beliefs and fears that may keep us from
love.
Why should you come to “Love is a Miracle”?
To discover ways to:
- Experience more love in your life. Simple. No matter how much love you already have this can show you how to have more.
- Reach the depths of intimacy you deserve. Unblock the flow of intimacy to give you richer friendships, warmer family dynamics, and extraordinary depth in your closest relationships.
- Open to a world of joy and pleasure.
- Allow your life to flow naturally and comfortably with genuine love and intimacy.
This workshop is extraordinary. We offer you a laboratory in which all of your choices are honoured all of the time. Experienced facilitators guide you through gentle exercises, supporting you to discover and shed the fears, judgments, beliefs and behaviours that keep you separate. At this workshop, you can enhance your passion for living, natural appreciation and acceptance of others, and inherent desire to live joyfully.
In November 2010 the Level 1 workshop will be priceless.
We all have come to understand that what is actually offered in the room of love IS priceless. I.e. a way to find and experience love for Ourselves.
So this workshop reflects that in the way its presented.
All costs have already been covered by donations from past participants. Put forward by them because they KNOW, from experiencing the Room of love, just how worthwhile it is, and wish others to taste it too.
Note: Each of the workshops below has a prerequisite of a specific lower level workshop.
Level 2 - Loving Yourself
Level 2 picks up where Level 1 left off, this time d
irecting your
attention to loving yourself, honouring your body, and appreciating
our gender. Looking in the mirror will not be the same after Level
2.
Price £295 all in - including meals, accomodation and
workshop. Bursary funds available for those on low income.
Level 3 - Living at Choice
At Level 3 you are invited to take a deeper look at the underlying
assumptions and patterns that may be the cause of your behaviours.
Level 3 teaches you to really live at choice every moment of every
hour of every day of every year.
Level 4 - Integrating Sexuality and Spirituality
In Level 4, you move from the idea of spirituality into the
experience of spirituality. Building on the lessons of Level 3, you
experience breaking habits and patterns and liberating your
sexual-spiritual self.
Level 5 - The Dance Between Control and Surrender
Level 5 takes the lessons of the previous levels to new heights as
you find the magic in not only getting what you want but also
wanting what you get.
Level 6 - Creating Community
Level 6 shifts the focus of the earlier levels from looking within
to looking at your life and the world around you. You are not only
the person who looks back in the mirror's reflection; we are also
the one reflected in the eyes of your community.
Level 7 - Being the Source of Love
Perhaps the art of truly living your life 'in love' comes from the
ability to be love in any situation, no matter what. What if the
source of love only came from within you? Come be love in the Room
of Love.
Level 8 - Sacred Energy Exchange
Level 8 delves into the sacredness, beauty, power and wonder of
"sacred energy exchange." As we get in touch with our sacred
energy, we are likely to feel more alert, more charming, happier,
and more self-assured without having to "do" anything.
