Workshops Descriptions
The Power of Presence:
The present moment is where we find our empowerment, our peace, our healing, our bliss. In the present moment new possibilities unfold. Unfortunately, old habits far too often keep us stuck in the dramas of our past history and future expectations, preventing us from experiencing all the present moment has to offer. This two and a half day workshop explores in depth the six profoundly simple tools from Audrey Mairi's book Trager for Self-Healing: A Practical Guide for Living in the Present Moment that illicit a state of presence anytime, anywhere, helping to unravel the tangled ball of our conditioning. Taken from the Trager® Approach, these concepts and tools cultivate a greater body/mind spaciousness and spiritual depth, consciously connecting us with a field of non-local intelligence that guides us forward with grace and ease and facilitates the release of mental, physical, and emotional holding patterns to bring us fully into the present moment.
Designed for all ages and fitness levels, these tools called Mentastics or "mental gymnastics" spur consciousness of the Now and imprint the body with how that "feels," becoming a crucial part of the healing process. The present moment is not an intellectual concept; it is a feeling state, a feeling state available to us as we type at our computers or play with our children or even attend a funeral. So many paths to self-awareness ask us to ignore, detach from, or rise above the physical body. This holistic approach to wellness incorporates the body into the spiritual package. To do this, we meet the Life Force where it resides, in the present moment, our point of power. Trager forges this last conscious link to our source bringing us feelings of lightness, joy, good health, and enduring peace.

Six Simple Steps To The "Now":
So much of our lives are intellectual or thought oriented; most have little conscious experience with what it actually feels like to be in the present moment. Yet this feeling is the missing link. When we are able to consciously and consistently "hook-up" to this feeling-a feeling of lightness, of peace, of bliss-our empowerment arises naturally, our life's purpose becomes clear, our dreams manifest with ease.
Join Audrey and be introduced to this missing link.

Trager Introductory Workshop
This is a hands-on experience of the Trager principles.
After being introduced to the feelings inherent in the present moment, you will learn to use additional Trager tools such as innocence, elasticity, and wave of motion. Through these, and others, you will not only access your inner self, but discover how to touch others in a deeper more meaningful way, a way that transcends mere manipulation of muscles and joints.
2 day workshop
Prerequisite for the Trager Professional Training, 12 credits CMTBC
Introduction to Mentastics
Derived from the words "mental gymnastics," Mentastics are the self-care portion of the Trager Approach. Re-connect to that feeling of lightness, of peace, of bliss, any time any where. Condition your body/mind away from old dysfunctional patterns. With use, Mentastics will help anyone feel balanced, grounded, and able to cope with stress.
