Content: The Synergy Way is designed to help us understand how we perceive and respond dynamically to our environments and how those perceptions and responses manifest in our bodies. Drawing deeply on both theory and practical application, we use the Synergy Way as a method to help clients build awareness of their body-felt experiences and, using that awareness, facilitate the healing process.

Topics to be covered include:

• Review of current neuroscience research and its application to body work, including brain anatomy, the role of the vagal nerve and how our soft tissue responses parallel those of our central nervous system
• The bodies physiological adaptive response to injury and trauma,  Discussion of the parallels between the physiological, mental and emotional healing processes
• How to use this information to help use our bodies as a guide
• The importance of mindset shifts (for both practitioner and clients) in working with the body

This class is designed for bodyworkers, counselors, trainers and anyone who works with clients in a manner that includes engagement and connection to body felt awareness. Clients who have a history of injury, trauma or difficulty having body awareness can benefit from using this framework to begin to approach their bodies.   At this time, continuing education credit is available for Tennessee LMT’s only; 7 hours.

Advisory: I recommend that practitioners have strong personal support systems in place when attending this class as the topics can resonate deeply with an individual’s personal experience and history, including experiences of injury and trauma. I suggest you intentionally keep evening commitments to those that provide a sense of safety, comfort and restoration. If you have questions or concerns, please contact Mindy Oldham (615-957-7129).

This class will include lecture, self-reflection and group exercises. Please wear comfortable clothes to participate in the exercises. No perfumes or scented products or jeans.

Unwind, Rock and Move is the methodology in which I now work with my massage clients and was created by first working with myself in pursuit of healing mind, body and spirit over many years.

Unwind, Rock and Move is fully clothed, slow bodywork.  This class is mostly hands-on with some discussion.  There are no prerequisites for this class.

It is my belief that our bodies were made to heal naturally when given the space and freedom to do so. When we slow down, make connection to the spirit within us and move where that spirit leads, we find freedom and fluidity.  This fluidity encourages good health and balance (homeostasis)to our overall wellbeing….and isn’t that what every human needs!

I look forward to sharing how I work with each of you!

Wear shorts, yoga pants or moveable materials that allow your body to naturally bend and move.  Please bring a large blanket that you can place in the floor, 1 blanket to place over you and 2 regular size pillows for Day 1 and a set of sheets/blanket/face cradle cover for Day 2.

There is an Unwind, Rock and Move- Level 2 that is unclothed bodywork and this class is a prerequisite.

A lunch break will be taken midday; you may bring your lunch, or eat at one of the many restaurants located nearby.
