There are two ways to approach learning Energy ALIVE, depending on your schedule and how much time you are wanting to invest: WEEKEND WORKSHOPS or 6-month MENTORING.
You can join a two-day or three-day workshop offered regularly by Henri when she is in town. She does not post these classes on her website (too time consuming), so please email her or phone her to check availability.
This option is perfect for those who have a limited amount of time and want to learn as much Energy ALIVE as they can while visiting Oahu. This is also how Henri teaches Energy ALIVE when she travels to Asia, Europe or the US Mainland.
Henri recommends students attend these two- or three-day workshops several times (repeat students receive a discount, of course). Why repeat a class? Because it is difficult to learn ANYTHING in depth in two days. Intellectual understanding is only one aspect of integration, and this work — though simple – requires a deeper sense of awareness. It takes time and practice to bring concepts and techniques into body memory, and then to move them deeper into a platform for living one’s life.
Energy ALIVE is designed to be useful even after the first day of class. Each workshop gives you tools and understandings that deepen your connection with your body, your mind and your hands. Yes, repetition will deepen your skill and support you more deeply, but even one workshop will give you immediate support. You will learn exercises and feather-light techniques for releasing blocked or stuck energies from your eyes, neck and shoulders, chest, back, arms and legs, and so forth. And that is just the beginning…..
The second way of learning Energy ALIVE® is to approach it using a MENTORING format.
This approach is perfect for residents or visitors to Hawaii who want to take the time to integrate Energy ALIVE more deeply into their routine. In this format, we take two months to cover each PHASE. This option also allows students to space out their tuition payments.
Mentoring takes place in small groups or one-on-one, in 3-hour segments four times a month. Usually that means we meet once a week, for about six months.
THE BENEFITS OF MENTORING:
For a deeper healing and integration experience, MENTORING is the preferred style of learning. It allows students to adjust the pace of learning so that the principles and practices of Energy ALIVE reach into deeper levels of mind. Students who choose the MENTORING option usually do not need to repeat the workshop, since the ongoing practice over a six-month semester creates a solid foundation and practice.
- Three-hour classes slow down the amount of material being conveyed at one time into easily absorbed segments.
- The short amount of time between each class allows students to practice what they have learned, to discover gaps in their understanding which can be addressed the following week.
- Practice between classes also helps students cultivate a healing routine in daily life, so that by the time the class series ends, they have created NEW habits of healing for themselves.
