ABOUT THIS MASTER CLASS
The body holds the secret to engaging with our deepest fears and darkest shadows. Join Kai Cheng Thom, MSW, MSc, Qualified Mediator, Certified Professional Life Coach, Certified Jungian Life Coach, for a somatic perspective on "shadow work"—a term that has become popularized in healing and personal development but is often ill-defined and poorly understood.
In this masterclass, Kai Cheng will draw from her study of the applications of depth psychology for coaching as well as her expertise in somatic trauma healing in order to provide participants with a clear and practical foundation for understanding the "shadow" in psychological terms and ways in which this concept relates to embodiment work. Participants will also learn how to use a combination of conversational, interoceptive and movement based somatic techniques for working with the shadow in personal and professional settings.
