Workshop Information
I am honoured to once again be organising Jim McCormick's return to the UK. For those of you who do not know, Jim is currently the most experienced Zero Balancing teacher in the world. This time, Jim will teach the highly demanded Geometry of Healing, an advanced Zero Balancing workshop created by Dr Fritz Smith and not taught in the UK since 2011. Jim will be assisted by two very experienced UK teachers, Alan Hext and Richard Walters.
Geometry of Healing is an advanced-level Zero Balancing course that teaches students how to work directly with the vibratory/energetic fields of the body. We define fields and then learn how to access and evaluate vibratory fields, obtain information contained therein, and how to balance and clarify the designated field or material.
We will explore the concept of free standing waves forms and learn how to access and balance them directly. You’ll also learn how to work with slowed vibratory fields to access “the gap,” an experience of stepping beyond time, space, and information — a field of pure potential. Much of the theoretical material presented is based on quantum physics, holograms, field theory, and how they can inform the world of touch.
You will learn:
- Theory of vibratory fields, their nature and behavior
- Accessing, evaluating and navigating fields through touch
- Use of touch to create openings or ‘windows’ into the field to amplify possibility
- Entering and experiencing the ‘gap’ within the field to access pure potential
- Compression of fields and their application in your sessions
- Obtaining information from within the field to inform your touch
- To recognize your own body signals as feedback to guide your work
A study guide will be provided to all participants.
This workshop also marks the very end of the European Teacher Training Programme, so there will be a graduation on the Saturday evening.
Note to previous Samye Ling workshop participants - this workshop will not be taking place at the Purelands Retreat Centre. We will be in the main monastery complex this time. More information to follow nearer the time. Also, please do not send money to the same account that was used previously - new account details will be sent upon successful completion of booking.
