Real LIFE Facilitator Program

We live in challenging times. Uncertainty abounds, anxiety runs rampant, and conflict seems to be everywhere. It is often difficult to know who or what to rely on. We can respond intelligently to our challenges, but only if we know how to work with ourselves - our own heart and mind, and how to collaborate joyfully and effectively with others.

The Real LIFE Facilitator Program is a training in leadership, Integral theory, facilitation skills, and working with the energy and dynamics of groups. We also teach how to engage conflict, polarities, and group shadow, and how to work creatively with them.

The 2023-24 Program is Sold Out

Attention to Subtle Energy

Becoming sensitive to the subtle energetic qualities in our work, including coherence, differentiation, vitality, or sluggishness, etc. And how much we are impacted by it, and how to successfully work with it.

Integral Diversity

Play and Spontaneity

Just like children, adults grow more quickly in environments that include play, curiosity, and exploration. The Real LIFE Facilitator program includes many moments of spontaneity, levity, and emotional release, teaching us the value of bringing these moments to our own work.

Embodiment

Our programs include deep familiarization with the body. We explore movement, physical expression, and the nervous system's response to conflict and emotions. Oh, and there is plenty of dancing.
