                                                                            Core Process Workshop
                                                                   presented by Brook Olsen H.H.P. / S.E.P. and Peggy Reynolds-Olsen
Core Process is an expolration of how we are in our present experience, and how this expresses the past conditioning and conditions of our lives. The intention of this enquiry is the possibility of transforming our relationship to suffering and the facilitation of greater and more conscious choice in our daily life. In Core Process work, a depth awareness of what is happening in the present moment is used to explore our inner process. This awareness encompasses our energies, sensations, feelings, mental processes, and their expressions in the body. The aim is not to alter our experience, but to sense how we relate to it, so that it becomes possible to move with greater creativity and flexibilty in our lives. Core Process work is based on the understanding that within the conscious mind there is a deeper wisdom that moves naturally towards healing. Integration and healing come from insight into the ways in which we hold onto our suffering, and from a deeper connection with the openness, compassion, and wisdom at the heart of our human condition. You may feel blocked or weighed down by past conditioning or trauma(s), which restrict your life at the moment. Core Process therapeutic work can help you free yourself from what holds you back. This work can help develop practical skills for self-listening which will be invaluable to you long after the therapy may have stopped.
This is a 2 1/2 day all inclusive workshop which will be held atop Palomar Mountain at Pacha Mama's Grove Retreat Center. The group is limited to 7 participants. Brook and Peggy will hold space for each participant to process individually with the support of the group.

                                               Exploring deeper intimacy thru loving communication
Open to committed couples only. In this two day workshop we will explore simple non-reactive techniques that may be used by couples to greatly enhance the depth of communication and understanding. This workshop explores the "Non-Reactive" possibilities of supporting yourself and your partner in resolving issues. We will be working with the relational field we create and learning to use our words and listening skills to help one another open to and explore our experience. Tracking through our bodies and hearts as we begin to find stillness from within and reflect from the inside out. In this way experiencing communication as a spontaneous emergence of our deepest expression of truth leading to a new depth of intimacy.

Relational Field Workshop
presented by Brook Olsen H.H.P. / S.E.P. and Peggy Reynolds-Olsen
A skill enhancement workshop for holistic professionals and touch therapist.
This is a 21/2 day workshop held at the all inclusive Pacha Mama's Grove Retreat Center atop Palomar Mountain. Come and explore the possibility of listening from the inside out. Working with clients instead of on them. We need to develop the skills of staying present andallowing the information to come to us organically. We are in the habit of thinking we already know what our clients need and thus we never really listen to them. In this course the nature of our human condition will be explored within small group fprmats. Peggy will be presenting basic forms of relational work where the focus will be on present awareness  and inquiry into the nature of what arises in relationship. The nature of the "relational Field" will be explored. How information is communicated within a wide perceptual field will be the focu of the day. Interpersonal skills relating to psycho-emotional and historical information will be emphasised and the nature of the therapeutic interaction explored. Emphasis will be on "joint practice" the mutual nature of the client-therapist relationship. Forms of active supervision will also be explored in which observer therapist hold certain intentions of awareness as the therapist-client process unfolds. The Brahma Viharas, Equanimity, Compassion, Love and Joy will help generate and hold the enquiry.
