Living the Breathable Body in the Sea and on Land
with Carole Burstein, PhD and Robert Litman
April 10 - 13, 2008 – Maui, Hawaii
Both the body and the personality are reflections of the way that we live
and breathe. The movement of breath affects every cell in the body. Unconscious
mechanisms that shape the way we breathe create our perceptions, beliefs
and behaviors. Under stress breath separates from consciousness, compromising
human potential on every level.
As we learn to live a breathable body we re-unite breath with consciousness
opening our organism to its unrealized possibilities. We meet ourselves
beneath the survival patterns that have shaped both body and personality..
Through the Wisdom of breath we enter a time/space where cells become
tissue and perceptions form meanings and behavior.
In this workshop we will cultivate a relationship with the DIvine Intelligence
of the breath that Breathes us. This relationship becomes our Guide, revealing
our purpose and potential in this lifetime. In so doing, every breath
becomes an opportunity for co-creating our unfolding Self
In Maui we have the unique opportunity to explore our inner fluidity as
we are held and moved by the archetypal fluidity of the ocean. Morning
sessions are held at the beach; afternoon sessions in the studio.
This workshop addresses:
• anatomy and physiology of breath
• anatomy of the psyche (Jungian)
• the relationship between body and psyche
• the formation of mind/body patterning and to interact with it
• the creation of an ongoing relationship with your deepest essential
Self
• the use of perception as a tool for transformation
• increasing the capacity to sense and move coherently
• revitalizing bones, joints, nervous system and health on all levels
• co-creating a coherent Self - physical and non-physical
• transition from fear-based living to love-based relationship with
Life
Cost: $595 (Registration before March 13 - $570)

Heart of Grief in to Breath
with Susan Harper & Robert Litman
May 8 – 11, 2008 – Tucson, Arizona
Unexpressed grief weights the heart and constrains the breath. Inside
grief lays loss - of a beloved, longing, shattered dreams; AND paradoxically
passionate praise for what we have dearly loved,
are missing and remembering with joy. Grief fully felt and expressed frees
energy and life-sustaining breath, and opens a compassionate vision for
living with heart and soul in a global community.

Beyond the Mind/Body Split
with Carole Burstein, PhD and Robert Litman
May 29 – June 1, 2008, Longmont, Colorado
Both the body and the personality are reflections of the process by which
we live life. The body is formed by the way we inhabit it; the personality
emerges as our nascent qualities interact with the circumstances of childhood.
In this workshop we will encounter our individual Life Force in the time/space
where cells become tissue and perceptions form meanings and behavior.
Beyond the mind/body split we meet ourselves beneath the survival instincts
that have shaped us. We learn to co-create ourselves by cultivating a
relationship with our original self, its purpose and potential in this
lifetime. Cost: $495 – discounts available
This is the first in a series of workshop that addresses:
• anatomy and physiology of breath
• anatomy of the psyche (Jungian)

THE BREADTH OF BREATH w/ Emilie Conrad & Robert Litman
September 26 – 28, 2008 – Berkeley,
California
From distant spiraling galaxies, through our multi-layered organism to
the central core of our DNA, our breath carries messages to and from the
universe. We are both receiver and messenger as our exhale transmits the
tone of our internal landscape. In a society fraught with stress and anxiety,
our most useful contribution is an exhale sending signals into the world
that peace and possibility still exist. We can learn to transform and
recycle negativity and enhance the message of greater good. Movement potential
whether in breath or tissue brings us to the very core of life giving
nutrients that give us the ability to restore health and well-being in
our daily cycles of life.
