Somatic Re-Storying Workshop

  • Sakala 1660 Gilpin Street Denver, CO, 80218 United States (map)

WORKSHOP IS CURRENTLY FULL - PLEASE FILL OUT THE FORM BELOW TO JOIN THE WAITLIST

Join us as we engage collectively in healing from trauma and grief with somatic and experiential practices lead by a highly experienced facilitator.

At a time when queerness remains both a deep source of joy and connection and a persistent source of trauma, grief and exile - we are reminded of the one of a magical quality of queerness - our radical ability to heal and thrive in community. 

This Somatic Re-Storying workshop will be a highly experiential, narrative-changing healing space where you get to address your family- and culture-of-origin wounds in a small group environment with other LGBTQIA+ folx. During our time together we will engage in somatic and embodiment exercises to prepare our bodies, hearts and nervous systems to engage in psychodrama structures, a powerful modality for healing and transforming the wounds and stories we carry.

This practice is a highly collaborative, deeply experiential, profoundly transformative and innovative approach to healing relationship patterns and embodied narratives that no longer serve us.

In this workshop we will recreate in three dimensional space a representation of something we would like to heal. We do this in order to step into the deep longings and hidden wounds of our inner child/ren and then re-imagine new possibilities that become somatically imprinted with the help of group members and a highly experienced facilitator.

We often joke that this transformation of your relational templates and possibility maps “is like doing ten years of therapy in one hour.”

Learn More

If you are interested in learning more about Somatic Re-Storying, you can read about it in chapter 18 of The Body Keeps the Score written by Bessel van der Kolk where it is referred to as “psychodrama structures”.

“Queer people are not taught to think about our future. We spend so much of our lives digging up our history, focused on the legal and sexual economy of our present. Queer people are not taught to think about our spirituality. We spend so much of our lives banished from religions and focused on our bodies. In this time of plague, climate and economic crisis, when making plans feels futile and overwhelming, remember this: Imagining your Queer future is a form of prayer.”
