What you'll experience in his sessions:
In his transformative sessions, Philip Shepherd guides you through:
- Reuniting Thinking and Being - How to join the thinking of the head with the deep, present, and calm intelligence of the body
- Landing in the Body - Specific practices that show you how to land in the body and thereby arrive in the present
- Voice as Embodiment - Exploration of how the voice arises from the whole of your being and makes the wholeness of the Present experienceable, even while you're speaking
- From Self-Consciousness to World-Consciousness - Liberation from self-observation to expanded attention in the Present and in companionship with the world
- Recognizing and Dissolving Cultural Patterns - Gently recognizing and releasing cultural patterns of tension held within the body that separate us from wholeness
- Awakening the Pelvic Core - Connecting with the awakened center of awareness deep in the pelvic bowl that thinks and perceives hand-in-hand with the mindful present
- Practices for Daily Life - TEPP practices that belong in your everyday life – while washing dishes, in the grocery store aisle, or in conversation with a friend
What Participants Are Saying:
★★★★★
"The term 'workshop' is so lacking in conveying the richness of this weekend; it was an experience of the core of my very Being being felt, experienced and deeply embraced."
★★★★★
"This is without doubt one of the most effective and immediately applicable workshops I have attended. I learned new approaches to breath work which I am excited to bring to my own work. I learned so much about presence and how to speak with my full being conveyed in my voice. Philip conveys deep wisdom easily, with a refreshing lack of ego or dogma."
★★★★★
"Philip's workshop helps you encounter a very direct connection to yourself and the world in a very playful as well as meditative way. Our culture's misconceptions and subsequent dissociative patterns are made conscious in an incredibly fluent process."
★★★★★
"Philip Shepherd is a great master of embodiment. He has wrung his profound insights from a lifetime's immersion in the mystery of the body, and his work is amongst the most prophetic and practical that we have." - Andrew Harvey, author of The Hope and Radical Regeneration
★★★★★
"[Philip has] an almost preternatural ability to see and help develop resources within each of us which we are already carrying yet may not be fully utilizing. He helps us out of our habitual minds and into a new relationship with ourselves and others using the tools of breath, body, and language." - Annie, workshop participant
