EMBODIED LEADERSHIP RETREAT
LET YOURSELF BE HUMAN
Often times, we as humans walk around in life having only the perception of our mind.
We have forgotten about our bodies' wisdom and knowledge.
Due to our hurried culture and seeking outside sources to fill a void, it has become our human nature to forget who we are. With the rise of artificial intelligence, we have become disconnected with the intelligence of our own body. We have forgotten that we are already at our greatest potential and that we have everything within us that will lead us to a feeling of fulfilment, prosperity and joy.
The Embodied Vertical Leadership training brings focus to the bodies four intelligent centers, the head, the heart, the gut (Hara) and the sacral centre. Once we bring awareness and observation to these four areas, we are then able to fully show up for ourselves and for the world.
By attending the retreat you will increasingly feel more courageous to show up as your full authentic self. You will be inspired to take action, to check in with your values and to get clear of what you want and desire.
You will also be more capable in;
- Connecting deeply with your heart centre which is the gateway to take courageous action steps
- To develop more effective and healthy relationships and partnerships
- To accept, respond and adapt more consciously to life's challenges
- To be able to unlock the genius gifts within you
- To be able to merge and hold different perspectives together
When we connect with our head, heart, gut (Hara) and sacral centre, this internal collaboration combines the power of thought and creativity with our emotional intelligence. This allows us to remain open, vulnerable and have the ability to trust others and ourselves.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
You may be a leader, a change maker or someone who is eager to lean into your human potential. Is this you? No matter who you are, you probably share a desire to create a more positive impact on the world and on those around you.
Are you wishing to be more effective in your actions, to get clear of what you are wanting to experience from life and to simply live with joy and abundance?
If you are noticing patterns within yourself that no longer serve you and you want to transform your perspective and shift to a new way of being in the world, then this is the retreat for YOU.
WHAT WILL I LEARN?
You will experience a journey through the spectrum of adult development, including somatic learning, emotional development, mental learning and development of your awareness.
To do this, we introduce the practice of Action Inquiry (founded by Bill Torbert) which incorporates ancient wisdom from traditions around the world.
This retreat will leave you with grounded ideas and practices to support you on the journey of psychological development for the rest of your life.
-
Awareness is the first step. When we connect our head to the frequency of our heart, we are able to access our emotional intelligence. EQ is the ability to practice empathy, be vulnerable and trust yourself and others.
-
The root of the word courage is COR - the Latin word for heart. Living with an open and courageous heart gives us the opportunity to take action. When the heart and hara are connected and aligned, this creates an impulse for you to go after your dreams.
-
Our intuition is one intelligent messenger. When our hara (gut) and head are connected, we have the ability to tap into our bodies wisdom, receiving insights and knowledge.
-
Our body holds ancient knowledge. It holds experiences and memories. This innate intelligence has an ability to adapt, change and heal all on its own.

I can't recommend this retreat enough!"

"This experience was enlightening, unexpected, but exactly what I needed at this point in my life. Jesse facilitated this worksop to an extend which blew me away. I am in awe at the level of knowledge, support, compassion, intuitive, guidance and professionalism they tapped into during the course. They held the space beautifully, I would say, beyond words. I look forward to continuing my journey with them."
