Our perception and ability to connect is first fostered through our five senses with development starting in fetal life. In the womb, we are not conscious of any separation or personal identity. But, upon entering this world, our journey of separation begins. After the experience of a global pandemic, we feel more disconnected and sensually shut down than perhaps ever before. All of our senses play a part in the connection or disconnection going on in the world today. Whether it's the sense of sight as we try to tell if someone is smiling under their mask, or recognizing how much we read lips to hear properly, or hearing too much information around COVID, or the smell of hand sanitizer, these sensory perceptions can create fear for many. Additionally, in light of the COVID pandemic, we are hyper-focused on whether or not our sense of taste is functioning as an indication of health status, and our sense of touch, the most essential of all, is hijacked by our fear of touching anything--surfaces, the air, each other. Of all the senses, touch is the only one we cannot live without.

This pre-recorded remote group session will focus on the disconnect we may be experiencing across each of the five senses, grounding, optimizing and revitalizing them. The session will support integrating each of the senses with the others, so we come back to living more sensually. As we are more grounded and connected in our senses, we can experience life more fully. Although the examples of sensory shock above are COVID-related, this session will use a much wider lens to encompass pre-COVID and post-COVID areas of sensory disconnect as well. The stresses of modern life, regardless of whether or not we are in a pandemic, create many opportunities to disconnect from our senses as a coping mechanism.

Group Session series offer an opportunity for anyone to partake in a remote pre-recorded BodyTalk session with top Instructors in the BodyTalk System. Instructors tune into the collective energy of all those who will listen, providing a session that can offer powerful benefits to anyone who may view the session in the future. Countless testimonials have demonstrated that viewing these sessions at any time and tapping them out can be just as effective as receiving sessions in real time in person. In fact, group sessions are often more powerful because they are amplified by the shared observations and experiences of a large group. Additionally, remote group sessions will increase your understanding of important BodyTalk concepts that you can bring into your sessions with clients and provide an opportunity for shifts in your own health, consciousness, and perception.

This course counts for 1 hour of continuing education for Certified BodyTalk Practitioners' requirements.
