The threshold to determine if the INTENSIVE is right for you include the following:
1) You have taken the Introductory course, read the content on
www.touchofpresence.com and you feel that this work calls you, even for unexplained reasons, or, perhaps, it feels somehow familiar, or, it resonates in your heart or in your body.
2) It is important you know that by joining the INTENSIVE you are agreeing to learn Biodynamics as we teach it — through non-doing and learning to trust the natural creative forces that intelligently guide development, healing, and evolution. Therefore, you must possess a sincere willingness to engage in the work as presented; to let go of the habit of working in the way(s) you already know and that navigated you during your sessions until now. Being unwilling to work in this way — abiding in neutral (non-doing presence and open awareness) you miss the biodynamic transmission as we teach it. This is oral tradition and receptivity to the transmission is the most important aspect of ‘getting’ this work rather than relying on an intellectual process.
3) Come with an open mind and heart. Have no assumptions about what biodynamic work is — have no fixed position in your mind regarding ideas, thoughts, beliefs, past experiences and trainings, and how you presently work, regardless of how valuable it has been for you.
Assume no position either for or against what is presented and remain cautious of being overly enamored by what can be the endless array of phenomenology. Be awed by it sure,, let it affect you, and let it go. Perceive directly with your totality, globally experience the Breath of Life and allow yourself to be authentically and uniquely informed, transformed, and transmuted by it.
The invitation is to rest within an open heart-field, relaxed within freed attention, and whole body present awareness.
Be willing to remain grounded in present-moment experience and awareness even amid thoughts or ideas of past or future. Integration, resolution, and embodied evolution occurs when you are not fixed in past or future thinking.
We are asking for an openness to this work that allows you to be in not-knowing long enough to encounter "Be Still and Know I AM". It is the I AMNESS that Sutherland was pointing to.
