This is an online course meeting from 4 – 7pm Pacific on eight consecutive Thursdays: October 3, 10, 17, 24, and 31, and Nov 7, 14, and 21, 2024

 

  • What if love and connection could be easy?
  • What if creativity and co-creativity could replace control and adrenaline dramas?
  • What if your body wisdom, the way you breathe, move and notice, was the quickest path to relationship fulfillment?

If these questions perk up your curiosity, you might be ready to dive into this somatic approach to relating. In the thirty years since Conscious Loving became a bestseller, we have continued to evolve the only body-centered approach to relationships in the field. We have worked with thousands of partners and professionals around the world to continue developing a new paradigm of relating that is based in uncovering, sharing and celebrating our essential selves.

Most people long for the experience of being themselves in the full presence of another loving person. They imagine being deeply seen and appreciated while co-creating a life of fulfillment together. And many people don’t realize that popping out of old relationship myths and getting real can be as easy as breathing and moving in new ways.

This training is designed to equip you with the essential relationship-building skills we’ve developed during the past forty years. Whether you use these skills personally or professionally, you’ll find that you get stuck less often, shift more quickly, and spend more of your time living the relationship life you design by choice.

The Conscious Loving Advanced Training is highly experiential and life-changing for the participants. It was created for those individuals, couples and professionals dedicated to inspiring conscious relationships at home and in the workplace. Some of the concepts and techniques covered:

  • How to facilitate the five essential skills of conscious relationship: Commitment, authenticity, healthy response-ability, appreciation and creativity
  • How to let relating and transformation be easy
  • How to shift from working on to shifting and discovering
  • How to use a reliable road map to relationship fulfillment
  • How to recognize and expand the steps in the Relationship Dance of unity and individual creative fulfillment
  • How to facilitate breakthroughs in long-standing impasses
  • How to use breath, movement and body-centered techniques to speed up problem-resolution
  • How to resolve sex and money issues in close relationships.

Participants will be given a comprehensive manual during the course and a set of videos and workbook to facilitate Conscious Loving workshops with singles, partners and groups.

Prerequisite:

Completion of Evolutionary Playground: New Paths to Change for Uncertain Times or our previously taught Conscious Loving and Living Essentials: The 3-Day Seminar is a prerequisite for our advanced training events.

How The Hendricks’ Work Is Different From Other Approaches to Coaching and Transformation

1) We emphasize personal integrity in all of the techniques that we teach. Whether at home or in business, we help partners learn to tell the truth to each other. When a person is hiding some truth, he or she will tend to complain about a relationship issue. Misunderstandings of responsibility fuel much relationship conflict. We help each partner in a relationship take full responsibility for any issue, especially if the issue looks like it belongs only to one person.

2) We believe that the central issue people face is expanding their capacity to give and receive love and to handle greater levels of unity and intimacy in their relationships and lives.

3) We balance cognitive techniques with powerful body-centered techniques that draw on the organic wisdom of the body. For example, in a couple’s coaching session or a corporate consultation, we make use of movement, conscious breathing and other tools that focus people on the natural healing capacity of their body processes. We have developed a transformational model that provides a flexible, yet comprehensive structure based in whole-body learning and collaboration.

4) We are very interested in concepts and techniques that emphasize unity instead of difference. Many currently popular approaches focus on the differences between people. While this may be useful at a certain point in evolution, we are very interested in laying the groundwork for the next stage of evolution, which we believe involves the fundamental unity at the base of all creation, people included. To this end, our techniques are focused on helping people reveal their own essence–who they really are at the spiritual depths of themselves–and to perceive the essences of other people.

5) We focus on specific actions over which you have control. Examples: You can’t control whether someone likes you, but you can control whether you pick up the phone and call them to talk to them about your feelings. You can’t control when you’re going to feel scared or anxious, but you can control whether you take a slow, deep breath or use Fear Melters®.

6) We are interested in ongoing innovation. We encourage our students and coaches to incorporate our materials freely and to continue to create dynamic applications that contribute to their own growth and professional development.

7) We don’t belong to traditional coaching organizations, primarily because their mind-centric approaches are too intellectual to reach the deeper level we’re interested in exploring through our body-mind work. In addition, we’ve had experience with numerous bureaucracies and have found them all too limiting.
