Training for Life IV. - Heart Chakra

30th of March – 4th of April 2012

A journey into the levels of human consciousness through the seven energy centers. The program for the full training is in seven modules:

1. Base Chakra – “Nourishing the Roots”
2. Sacral Chakra – “Feelings, Flow and Connection”
3. Solar Chakra –“Self-empowerment and Energy”
4. Heart Center – “Love, Relationship and Intimacy”
5. Throat Chakra – “Comunication, creativity”
6. The Third Eye –“ Inner-vision and intuition”
7. Crown Chakra – “Consciousness and Spirituality – Life’s purpose”

Training for Life is an intense process of exploration and self-discovery. It is a deep journey into our inner and outer world.

The aim of this work is to open our full potential as a human being, to reconnect our essential nature and to apply our inner discoveries in life.
We will investigate the many aspects of our being using the map of the chakra system. This map makes the connection between spirit and matter, mind and body, heaven and earth. In this journey we move through all levels of experience: Survival and manifestation; flow and connection; power and energy; love and relationship; communication and creativity; inner-vision and intuition; consciousness and awareness.

We work in seven modules, each focusing in-depth in one energy center and always relating to the system as a whole. You come out of a module with tools to creatively express and manifest what you have discovered and understood in your everyday life. With the completion of the whole training, you will have acquired skills for working with people. You will have assignments and supervision to keep moving and exploring between the modules.
It is a dynamic and self-transforming process.

The modules are complete in themselves and can be booked individually.

The Heart Chakra is associated to the element air. It’s essential qualities are love, acceptance, tenderness and compassion.

The Heart Chakra is the center of the chakra system and it is a balancer of opposites: mind and body; self and other, light and shadow, masculine and feminine; inner and outer; ego and unity. It has the ability to embrace everything that is without judgement.

The central focus of the heart is relating to others, which means connection, compassion and empathy for another. Compassion dissolves judgement and invites the heart to open.

The most common obstacle for the heart is the absense of self-love, which is the base for intimacy and balance between our selves and others. The Heart chakra works with reaching out and taking in. Fear and grief block these responses and eventually the heart chakra.

When grief is acknowledged and expressed, the heart opens to it’s original loving nature, and we move beyond duality, toward a sense of great acceptance of self and others.

In this module we will:

• Understand the needs of our heart, how it got hurt, and its mechanisms of protection.
• Learn to recognize our illusions around love as romance, understanding the higher meaning of love.
• Discover and develop the ability of the Heart to synchronize with other people’s hearts and all life around.
• Reconnecting our heart as healer, by listening to the wisdom and intuition of the heart.

The heart chakra is mostly shaped when we are around three and seven years old, when we form our social identity, oriented to self-acceptance.

As we heal and unburden our hearts from pain, sadness and the patterns of love that limit us, we find the deeper essence of love, that brings us a profound sense of peace and centeredness. When we move from wanting love to allowing and cultivating love we can meet with the heart of another in real intimacy.

Invitation letter

Dear Friends.

We would like to invite you personally TRAINING FOR LIFE – the process of internal growth.

TRAINING FOR LIFE is based on a system of chakras. This system works with a steady stream of life force, connecting mind, body and spirit. The Chakra system is a map that has a systematic and direct approach of clearing and opening. It gives us a clear orientation to move deep into one specific aspect of our lives while it integrals relating to the whole of ourselves as body, mind, emotions, mental and spiritual as well as cultural and social beings.

This is a process that opens the doors to our physical strength and emotional freedom, to our inner power and to our heart’s call for intimacy and comunion, creating spaces for clear comunication and creativity. Meanwhile, as we come closer and closer to our human nature, the realm of the mystical and transcendental naturally manifests.

The TRAINING FOR LIFE provides basic and powerful tools to unfold and enrich your daily life. You can discover, through the guidance of the group process and your own personal work, your innate potential, finding ways to recreate your life in accordance to your essential individual qualities.

An important part of the teaching methodology in this training is learning to read energies and to practice supporting another person in their individual process. Those are skills you can use if you work with people in a therapeutic setting and in your personal life: work, family, friends, as a way to enrich your relations with people and the world.

This is an ongoing process that develops within the period of 3 years. Each module works on issues related to a specific Chakra Center. A module is complete in itself; therefore it is possible to participate in a separate module without following the whole training. When you choose to follow the full training, you will receive tasks between the modules with online supervision by the teachers.

Some of the methodology that we use: Bodywork, Bioenergetics and conscious physical activities; Active and Silent Meditation; Sensory and body Awareness; Voicing; Energy Reading and Counselling; Group Dynamics and Individual History; Learning to understand ones own energy levels and structures; Teaching about the chakra map and related issues.

We are looking forward to this happening!
With love and light,

Komala and Khushru
