Presence & Healing January Workshop:                          Saturday, 1/20, 1-4:30pm

1/15/2018

​




​We offer a workshop at BCH on the third Saturday afternoon of each month on the topic of "Energy Literacy," a view of the world and of ourselves that focuses on learning to perceive energy in ourselves and the world around us.
 
We can view illness, pain and conflict as problems. Or we can view them as “the oil light on the dashboard” that tells us that something is out of balance and needs tending.The more we understand and are attuned to the energies of our bodies, hearts and minds, the earlier we can recognize imbalances and act to correct them. When we learn to do this it empowers us to live more and more harmonious lives, regardless of what’s happening outside of us.
This workshop has two goals:

1) To understand---concretely and practically---how energy works and moves in human beings, and

2) To practice the skills of perceiving, nourishing and tending to our own and other people’s energies.

We'll spend time in discussion, practice, laughter, and community-building.

Participants in these workshops are welcome to join the bi-monthly men's and women's practice groups that meet at BCH to practice these tools in community.

For questions, call us at 541-322-9642 or email us at  info@bendcommunityhealing.com.

The workshop is experiential with no previous experience required.
 
Please note that cost of the workshop is on a sliding scale of $30 - $60. Unfortunately our online software doesn't allow a sliding scale for payment so the cost if you sign up online is listed as $45.
If you'd like to pay lower or higher on the sliding scale please call us or pay the day of the workshop.

Settling Into the Solstice: Dec. 17th from 4:30 - 6:30pm     A Restorative/Yoga Nidra Workshop

12/4/2017

Picture
The winter solstice brings our natural world into equal darkness and light, offering us the opportunity to explore our own balance of light and dark, effort and ease, doing and being.  

Restorative yoga is often called “active relaxation” and is a quiet practice with the support of props. Yoga Nidra, or yogic sleep, is a practice of complete physical, mental and emotional relaxation. 30 minutes of yoga nidra is the equivalent of a 4-hour sleep!



Join BCH instructors Trish Ivie and Erin Collins to nurture, restore and balance your energy so that you can share with others during the holiday season.

Sunday Dec 17, 4:30-6:30pm $20-40 sliding scale

To register for the workshop click here.

Trish Ivie teaches yoga with an emphasis on awareness of sensation, believing in nature and the cycles of life to guide us as our greatest teacher.

Erin Collins offers students a space for quiet inner exploration of the body and mind, blending yoga tradition with modern learning and seasonal influences.

December Presence & Healing Workshop:                Cultivating the True Holiday Spirit

11/30/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
We'll be devoting our third Saturday "Presence & Healing" workshop on 12/16, from 1-4, to the cultivation of what we call "the true holiday spirit," an inner stillness and spaciousness that naturally results in peacefulness, generosity, compassion, and caring.
 
We'll do this through exercises in meditation, breathing, movement and self-massage that are designed to identify and melt the physical and emotional stress and contractions that can keep this holiday spirit from naturally flowing.
 
The workshop is experiential with no previous experience required.

Come join us just before the winter solstice in dipping into the solstice energies of stillness, darkness, and replenishment to clear stress and help the holiday season to flow smoothly and gracefully.
 
Please note that cost of the workshop is on a sliding scale of $30 - $60. Unfortunately our online software doesn't allow a sliding scale for payment so the cost if you sign up online is listed as $45. If you'd like to pay lower or higher on the sliding scale please call us or pay the day of the workshop.
For questions, please call us at 541-322-9642.

We can view illness, pain and conflict as problems. Or we can view them as “the oil light on the dashboard” that tells us that something is out of balance or in need of tending.

The more we understand and are attuned to the energies of our bodies, hearts and minds, the earlier we can recognize imbalances and act to correct them. When we learn to do this it allows us to live more and more harmonious lives, regardless of what’s happening outside of us.

This workshop has two goals:
  • To understand how energy works and moves in human beings, and
  • To practice the skills of perceiving, nourishing and tending to our own and other people’s energies.

Learning to be Water in a World on Fire: the Tools of Presence & Healing

9/6/2017

Wildfires, mega-storms, stress all around us...
In these challenging times how can we learn to give the best and not the worst of ourselves to the world?
                                                                                 
Crisis and stress can break us down or help us to grow stronger.

Whether we break down or transform is determined by our ability to connect with our essence and with the best in those around us.

By learning and practicing the skills of “energy literacy” we can find connection, meaning and satisfaction and can learn to dance with the stress and intensity of our lives---finding deep peace even in the midst of chaos.

This workshop will draw on tools from a variety of healing traditions to focus on understanding how energy works and moves in human beings. We’ll practice the skills of perceiving, nourishing and tending to our own and other people’s energies through lecture, discussion, practice, laughter, and community-building.
 
To register or for questions, call 541-322-9642 or click here.

July "Presence & Healing" workshop: Saturday, 7/15, 1-4pm

7/12/2017

Picture
We offer a workshop at BCH, usually on the third Saturday of each month, designed to teach what we call "energetic literacy," which we consider to be the foundation of all healing: on the levels of body, emotions, and mind.
 
One reason for the popularity of Yoga, Acupuncture and Qigong is that they come to us from cultures with a historical understanding of energy---an understanding that American society has largely lost.

Without that understanding many of us have difficulty creating the connections, meaning and satisfaction that we long for in our lives.

By re-learning and practicing the skills of “energy literacy” we can find and practice that connection, meaning and satisfaction and can learn to dance with the complexity and challenges of 21st century life, finding deep peace even in the midst of chaos.

This workshop focuses on 2 things:
- Understanding how energy lives and moves in human beings, and
- Practicing the ability to perceive, nourish and tend to our own and other people’s energies.

We'll spend time in discussion, practice, laughter, and community-building.

Cost of the workshop is on a sliding scale of $30 - $60. To register click here.  Please note that our online software doesn't allow a sliding scale and requires payment of $45. If you'd like to pay lower or higher on the sliding scale (or if you have other questions) please just give us a call at 541-322-9642.

THE LISTENING LAB with Ryan McGladrey, Sunday  7/16 from 12-5

6/14/2017

Our eyes can close, focus, or look away - but our ears take in the world around us all at once.
When we tune in or tune out parts of that “all at once”, we do it by utilizing the attribute we call attention. This makes sound an ideal tool to explore attention itself.

In this workshop we’ll use audio technology to build new awareness in the places where our inner and outer worlds meet.
 
 Cost of the workshop is on a sliding scale of $50-$150. Pay what you can afford and are moved to pay on that scale.

You can register for the workshop here.







Ryan McGladrey is an osteopath and bodymind educator. His work with people is the fruit of two decades of ongoing study and practice in a wide range of specialized approaches to healing and growth. He takes great joy in empowering others with practical means of transformation.

Have you ever found yourself in bed with thoughts continually circling around something frightening or infuriating that you read about in the news? Even if you know that nothing will be changed by cycling through these thoughts yet again it can seem impossible to get off the merry-go-round.

How can we disengage this kind of fruitless rumination without turning off the part of us that cares about what’s happening in the world? In this short workshop, you’ll learn a practical combination of skills for doing exactly that.


You’ll be able to apply what you learn immediately and leave with the knowledge of how to get even better at it over time.

The workshop runs from 2-4:30. Cost is $25.
Click here to register online or call Bend Community Healing at 541-322-9642.
