Heart of Gold: A Heartbeat Workshop with Joanne Winstanley

With Special Guest Zach Sukuweh

We can’t control the circumstances of our birth – or the challenges and gifts Life presents to us – but we can turn towards these gifts and challenges with the intention of doing our own work, meeting Life as it is, and strengthening and purifying our heart.

In this workshop we will engage with the wisdom, subtlety, and vitality of the heart through a process of transmutation: using the 5Rhythms® maps (Waves and Heartbeat) as a container and our instinct as our guide, we will shine light into dusty corners, turn over the rich muck of unexpressed emotion, tend to our tender places, and welcome the glint of buried treasures, too.

Together, and with a gentle touch, we will apply ourselves to the work of refining our own raw materials – spinning the straw of apparent misfortune into art, embodiment, and maybe even gold.

 

PREREQUISITES: 15 hours of Waves classes or workshop

About Joanne:

She approaches this work with a deep respect for its alchemical nature, and for the unique discovery process of each participant.
