What is BioEnergetics?

Primary human experiences such as sadness, anxiety, anger, and sex drive are routinly denied and bottled up due to the pressure of cultural expectation. When we’re children, we’re told in subtle ways that our emotions are“wrong”

When we’re toddlers and we get angry and throw a temper tantrum, our parents scold us and tell us to be quiet… So we repress all of that anger. When we’re of school age and we begin to cry we’re told to stop. When we’re happy, excited, and laughing our asses off as kids, we get told not to be so loud. To act respectable and stop laughing so loud in public. We get told to calm down…and so we repress our laughter and happiness.In each of these situations we repress our emotions. We use ourmuscular system to do this.We cannot keep this emotion trapped in our bodies. If we do,we’ll be depressed. We’ll be unhappy. We’ll be frustrated.

Like other instinctual drives, when these negative emotional responses are chronically repressed, they become problematic, pathological, toxic and potentially dangerous to self and/or others.

The Bioenergetic techniques explored in this experience offer a broader therapeutic approach sought to release these bound-up energies and facilitate their release through expression. 

We’re going to dig deeply into the uncomfortable partsof who you are, and who you’re being.

This approach also includes the process of self-discovery and offers resolution for long-standing internal conflicts and traumatic memories. So that we can go forward and live the life we are meant to live.
