Authenticity isn’t a fixed, permanent or ever-present state. If it were that easy, life would feel much different, wouldn’t it?

It can be helpful to see authenticity as a process or a practice. It takes a lot of work to unravel our conditioning, battle with self-doubt or fight of judgment (from self or others). It is a basic human need to belong and be accepted - and often this need can override our ability to show up authentically.

Some practices that can be helpful to embracing who you are:
- practicing presence
- connecting to your values
- communicating honestly
- setting boundaries
- identifying and speaking your truth
- connecting with folks who make it safe to be authentic and real
- embodiment practices (such as moving authentically in your body)

04/08/2024

So many of us struggle with feeling connected to our most authentic self. And often even when we do feel connected, it can be difficult to express this.

There are so many factors that get in the way of our authenticity: societal conditioning and expectations, family norms, trauma, external pressure, systematic oppression, self-doubt, perfectionism and more. It really is a privilege (in more than one sense of the word) to explore our depths and live our most authentic expression of being human.

Our work here is guided by the desire for all humans to have the right to express their own authentic version of aliveness.

How connected do you feel to your own authenticity?

The Unravelling - a return to authentic aliveness

“can you remember who you were before the world told you who you should be?” - Charles Bukowski

Welcome to The Unravelling:

A conscious process of peeling away the layers that have disconnected you from who you really are.

Within this trauma-informed group container, it is our mission to unravel and unlearn our conditioning so that we can embody our authenticity, embrace our aliveness and call our parts back into wholeness.

We meet ourselves and each other with curiosity and compassion, while also taking responsibility for the parts that are more difficult to own.

We will support this unwinding through deep inquiry, somatic/embodiment work, arts and expressive arts modalities, and witnessing + being witnessed.

The Container:

We will meet 8 times within a 2.5 month container, for two hours at a time, with breaks in between some weeks to allow for extra rest and integration.

Our next cohort will meet on Sundays from 1-3pm, with our first meeting on April 28.

In between sessions, there will be practices and reflections to continue to aid the process of raising consciousness, while unwinding and unhooking from conditioning.

Areas of Exploration:

In this group, we will explore our core/internalized beliefs and core wounds (mother + father wounds, abandonment wounds, attachment wounds, trauma).

We will look at our relationships (to ourselves and our higher selves, our loved ones, our bodies, s*x, money).

We will work on embodying difficult emotions (such as shame, grief, disgust, anger, joy - anything that is hard for you to experience).

We will seek to create a deeper connection to ourselves and to others. We will work on self-compassion, self-expression, self-trust and self-soothing. We will work on improving a sense of embodiment and connection to body wisdom.

Registration:

This group will be small, in order to offer the containment needed to do this deep work.

Registration is accepted on an application basis.

Please visit our website for more information about the process, dates, and investment, and to complete the application form.
