You must learn one thing.
The world was made to be free in.

Give up all the other worlds
except the one to which you belong.

Sometimes it takes darkness and
the sweet confinement
of your aloneness
to learn

anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive

is too small for you.

- David Whyte








"What if we discover that our present way of life is irreconcilable with our vocation to become fully human?"

mesa rainbowIn the most privileged and ravaging culture on Earth, there exists a tremendous need for more of us to awaken to Soul and become fully conscious, embodied humans. More than at perhaps any other moment in humanity's history, now is the time for creative, soul-centered role models, artists, visionaries, healers, leaders and elders.

As a guide and teacher, my role is to carry a flame that leads others both into and out of soulful darkness, to help them descend into the body and breath, there to find the song of their heart.

chakras Soul Embodiment sessions

Drawing on years of experience as a body-centered therapist & counselor, a bodyworker, workshop and men's group facilitator, I have developed an approach to wholeness and healing that I term Soul Embodiment. At its core, it draws upon body and soul as resource and compass.

In very loose terms, one might consider this as a sort of life coaching for Soul, guiding individuals further along the path of embodied, authentic living. However, unlike most popular coaching, this work is NOT about helping you manifest material abundance in your life, nor attracting a new job or relationship, replacing old limiting thoughts, or tapping into the spiritual power to change your life in a more pleasant fashion. This work is NOT about implementing inspirational, action-based strategies to help you gain seeming control over your life and destiny. Nor is it about implementing a daily spiritual practice... other than one that arises organically from your own being.

Rather, Soul Embodiment focuses upon:
  • helping an individual to recognize Eros, to identify the forces of allurement and soulful longing in his life
  • awakening the life force ("mana", "prana") through breath, sensation, sound, authentic movement and creative expression
  • embodiment; living fully and mindfully in the physical vessel of the BodyMindSoul, tapping into authentic power and passion
  • discovering the creative union of the Sacred Masculine and the Divine Feminine (within all of us)
  • working with dreams and the creative process as avenues to Soul and finding one's unique gift
  • navigating and interpreting challenging life situations through the lens of Soul and personal development
  • cultivating wholeness and healing through identifying one's shadow, the Sacred Wound, and the gift(s) it contains
  • understanding nourishment, pleasure, power and relationship from an embodied, soul-centered view
  • courting the Inner Beloved as a pathway to soulful romance, connection, and transformation
  • building relationship with the Four Orders of Mystery: Cosmos, Nature, Tribe and Self
Soul Embodiment may be as much about dismantling the old, ego-based identity of you as it is about uncovering and birthing the deeper, soul-based identity. Honouring the body and breath as vital resource, Soul Embodiment deepens you into the mystery of yourself (along with Nature and the Cosmos) that you might find your passion, power, and soul's unique offering to the more-than-human world.
