The Emotional Clearing Workshop

MORE INFO / REGISTER

The Emotional Clearing Workshop takes place every six months or so in New York City and other places personally led by John. This is a two and a half day (Fri. evening, all day Sat. and Sun.) life-changing event. You will learn how to work with troublesome feelings on the path to higher consciousness and will be empowered to achieve deep emotional integration, clearing, and growth. If you have been working with the book and feel stuck or need to ask questions of John himself, this is your chance. What you can expect from the workshop:

• An approach to understanding and validating your real feelings and how to use them for emotional and spiritual growth.
• How to prevent negative feelings from contaminating your life and relationships.
• A highly pragmatic self-therapy system that will enable you to release trapped, negative feelings on your own.
• Esoteric methods for enhancing emotional release, including unique breathwork, witnessing, alphatrance, and body-release techniques.
• Powerful experiential sessions to show you how to apply these principles and to initiate deep transformational releases.
• An opportunity to interact with John.


Whether feelings are transitory or more deeply based, we often lack the knowledge to properly clear them. Instead, the feelings become suppressed and stored in the body/mind, influencing us in undesirable ways, limiting our potential, damaging relationships, and eventually manifesting in the physical.

The skills taught in this workshop can be vital in any healing program that recognizes the connection between physical and emotional illness. Typical emotional issues include depression, anxiety, anger, love/hate, loneliness, sexual blocks, control tendencies, food and other addictive compulsions, relationship dynamics, dependencies, etc.

The core of the workshop is to teach you how to apply the four steps of Emotional Clearing to process any emotional issue: Awareness, Acceptance, Direct Experience, Transformation.

Several modes are employed in the workshop to assist in "processing" a feeling: bodywork, dialoguing, and guided meditation.

Bodywork includes breath, gentle movement, and Yoga. One of the reasons we are cut off from our feelings is that we are cut off from our bodies, where feelings originate. Getting in touch with the body is therefore an important preliminary to connecting with and releasing feelings.

Dialoguing takes place in small groups after John explains each of the steps of Emotional Clearing in detail. You learn to apply the principles to your emotional situation.

Guided meditation is the format through which the inner steps of processing are applied. You sit or lie in any position comfortable for you. John guides the group through deep Alpha state experiences where feelings are accessed and processed through the four steps.

This kind of group work is very powerful and can be helpful even to persons who are currently involved in personal therapy. The group energy builds significantly and provides a substantial boost that can often bring issues to completion that have been resistant. The workshop is generally inner-directed and non-confrontational except for a few segments in which non-verbal interaction is encouraged. Sharing in the groups is encouraged but not required.

This workshop is designed for persons with "normal" kinds of emotional issues, who have possibly had some meditation or psychotherapy experience. Persons with severe emotional disorders should participate only with the approval of a qualified professional who knows them.
