Embodywise is a new umbrella organization that sponsors a number of somatic-related trainings including ISITTA Trauma trainings, Hakomi Institute of California trainings, and Couples Therapy trainings. 

Becoming an embodied healing professional begins with a willingness to inquire into the mystery of your lived experience so you can access the intelligence of your body’s wisdom.  

It takes time, intention and practice to develop as a skilled healing practitioner. Embodywise supports helping professionals to learn from the “inside out,” developing not only therapeutic skills, but also continually refining our most essential tool: our own state of awareness and presence with our clients.

The complexity of our current social challenges–including collective trauma, empathy burnout, and implicit bias among helping professionals–calls for a new paradigm for psychological healing that includes three essential elements:

• Embodied self: Your somatic resilience and your relationship with your own innate wisdom
  

   

• Embodied relationship: Your therapeutic skill set for facilitating transformational change that’s nonviolent, compassionate and trusting of your client’s healing path
  

   

• Embodied community: Participating in conscious, kind community learning that’s collaborative, inclusive, safe and accountable

Our mission at Embodywise is to support the evolution of embodied healing professionals worldwide to create a more compassionate, conscious and connected humankind. 

We hope you will consider joining us on this journey, adding your unique voice and gifts to our growing community.
