BRIDGE 100h

“We don't heal in isolation, but in community.”― S. Kelley Harrell

Welcome to Authentic Flow.

Authentic flow is a somatic and collaborative approach to movement through which we listen, taste, see, feel, inquire and learn to embody our bodies as a living, feeling and exploring creative process of becoming.

This particular 100h training is intended to teachers of yoga and movement that are interested to teach more somatically and offer more trauma sensitive and embodied yoga/movement classes, and to certify to teach Authentic Flow. Also, absolutely anyone can join for inspiration and deepening your connection to yourself and others.

You will learn all about the Pilars, Principles and Pathways to Authentic Flow and Somatic yoga/movement classes.

We will start the journey through online immersion in November before meeting in person in December. 

Each day will explore one of the many facets of the practice all supported by non-dual tantrik view and philosophy. Days flow through satsang, sadhana, Authentic Flow classes, somatics, and more. And you will walk away with a toolbox of not only supporting your teaching and guidance but also engaging practices (such as mantra-s, energy body practices, visualizations, somatic dance and somatizations) and liberating perspectives to bring home to your own personal sadhana and movement practices, as well as to your community.

PILARS OF PRACTICE

Reciprocity

This is an ongoing conversation between the inner and the outer, your body and its interconnectedness to the environment, between every part of your bodyheartmind and as a whole.

State of Being

We seek to clarify tools and pathways for sensing and recognizing Truth, Here-ness, safety & home, as well as rapture. The goal is where you are. It is a direct sensory experience of the Now/You, arising as You/Now.

Continuum

When you move, everything moves. We are movement, and the movement we are will inform the movement we do on and off the mat. As we consciously find this arising movement of Truth we also support more complex, self-regulatory and healing processes in the bodymind.

Tools

To be/do this, we use breath, sounding soundscape, fluid-state activation and recognition, and a receptive, sensory state of attention. We also use yoga asana, mantra, intuitive movement, embodying the elements, and more, all informed by non-dual, classical Tantrik philosophy.

Authentic Flow

This allows us to flow with what truly is, and not what we want or think there should be. We get out of our own way and learn, not to necessarily feel better, but to get better at feeling.

Embodied Awakening

We shift our rational and more conventional orientation from linear thinking to a more multi-directional and sensing, feeling Embodied Awakening of the BodyHeartMindSpirit.

The Place- Möllan

A magical water mill resting deep in Smålands forest, carefully morphed into a retreat place with the clear intention to bring you home. FOREST NATURE RESERVE: The forest behind Möllan is a protected nature reserve that for almost 200 years has been kept untouched by any kind of forest management and logging. The forest is filled with berries and mushrooms when in season, and there are both paths you can follow or you can go off track. And if you’re lucky, you can spot the occasional moose in here. LAKES: Möllan lies directly at the shores of a forest lake perfect for swimming in or just sitting and watching the water. The wood-fired sauna hut is also located close to this lake. The lake connects to a larger system of lakes that can be accessed by e.g. canoe or kayak, which are available in the old Mill & Boathouse (read more below). LAND & GARDEN: Möllan Retreat lies on 2 hectares of land that includes a lushious grass fields, an apple orchard, campsites, a vegetable garden, an outdoor kitchen plus longtable, as well as forests and a river stream running through.

Chelan Freeman

There's always been a fierce presence calling me home, guiding me towards wholeness, an ember enclosed flickering with aliveness, strengthening my inner gaze. A desire to be inside the present moment guided me to find sanctuary in both deliberate silence & vibrant noise. I have continually received refuge laying my belly on our moist Earth & been deeply inspired by ethereal mystery, stories & ancient echoes. It's here in these spaces that I have encountered ways to listen more deeply & been enchanted by the reveal & the complexities hidden in the layers of existence. My body is my temple, a vessel for awakening, a dear friend & a lover, she my alter, a place of devotion & the Earth, our great Mother, my place of worship. I found my voice, its wisdom & its ability to speak, through coming back to the body over & over again in motion, in dance & formless form, expanding my thresholds & meeting the edges of death with softness. I offer myself as a guide to this undoing, to this sensual meeting of mystery & matter. Acting as a body of water, responding to the current, offering spaces for nature's call & untamed wisdom, I hold dance rituals, intuitive movement, somatic practices, yoga classes & soul spaces. I am one of those people that will always be uncovering, expanding & diversifying pathways within as it's the only way for this vessel & embodiment of mine to collide in union. I facilitate & guide from this nectar for healing in all ways, knowing my heart has always known love, for that I bow daily in devotion for the artist within. It is through the laboratory of discovery we meet unknown places of aliveness, awakening us to newness, pulling us to the light. It's here in this passage of life we get to taste the devastating rapture, the enchantment of all things & we get to sing & dance with mysticism & empty to the joy of existence. I am here as a guide & a bridge for unearthing true expression, within the container of body & elemental wisdom.
