Journey to the Apex: A Ritualistic Retreat
This retreat is for those in the healing arts:
1.) Who want refinement with their practices
2.) Who are devoted students of Alchemy and Change
3.) Who are open to embracing new identities as practitioners
The goal of this retreat is to open you up to a whole new level as a coach, a practitioner, a spiritual mentor/healer, a therapist, or a clinician, calibrating you to your new identity for an up-leveling in your personal and professional life.
Learn the subtle art of ritual to use with all 7 Embodiment Codes, in order to call in your guides for each of these codes. You will learn a hands-on therapy modality that will help you to feel for the core current life force energy both in yourself and with your clients.
We will use a blend of scientifically-proven therapy methods combined with energy medicine and ritual to clear distortions from the body and mind and attune you to your intuitive gifts. Don’t miss this incredibly unique opportunity to heal together, evolve together, rest together, and play together!
This 3-day journey to the Apex will become an initiation into your own self-mastery.

Webinar: Grief through a PSIM lens
We are holding the deep grief of the past 4 years in our lungs, our hearts, our jaws, and yes, even in our knees. Our bodies are relieving the past as if it is still occurring. Replaying these wounds on a feedback loop in the form of body pain, limited function, and emotional rigidity.
Our grief avoidance makes sense. Grief is one of the few emotions that swallows us whole. Creating a void-space that feels eternal. Grief can oftentimes feel like a free-fall into the unknown.
Grief is the ultimate form of surrender: A concept that appears worse than death to the ego.
Therefore, our minds will create all kinds of adaptations to keep us from having to experience an ego death…
Busyness
Collapse
Overwhelm
Depression
Distraction
Deflection
Compensation
Projection
These adaptations are designed to keep us moving forward, but sometimes they come at an expense to the health of our bodies and to our relationships.
Carrying grief for too long skews our reality and shapes our identity into a compilation of avoidance patterns and defense mechanisms.
If we don’t learn healthy strategies for processing our grief, we are at risk for losing ourselves and our connection to our internal compass.
This is why I have decided to host this webinar.
In this webinar, I will share my observations of how we carry grief in our body and how it expresses itself in our behaviours. I will share some case studies about how my clients and I have worked with grief using the Psyche-Soma Integration Model (PSIM), which gives us tools for being present to the process so that we may integrate grief’s many lessons over time.
This webinar is for Practitioners and Clients who are looking for an integrative approach that uses the body to address complex trauma patterns.
After the webinar, I would like to offer you a special invitation:
Those of you who attend the webinar live are invited to stay for our Embodiment Project Study Group from 1-2:30PM.
This is a very special opportunity for those who would like to experience my work for the first time.
The Embodiment Project study groups are typically only open to folks who have gone through the Embodiment Project or who have worked with a coach or therapist who is trained in the PSIM.
In this study group, we will be receiving an Embodiment Code that specifically addresses how we hold grief in the body.
This webinar is donation-based, with all proceeds going towards the Cancer Society of America.
In honour of my mother, Deborah Kay Benson.

I created The Embodiment Project Group Healing Program, to address the 7 major collective traumas that we hold in our physical and energetic bodies as a result of being a member of the collective. You will learn how to self-treat and how to create your own customized embodiment practice to support your healing. I will teach you new models that give language to concepts that many of us struggle with in our own self-practice, like how to feel for restrictions inside of your own body and how to let go with ease and grace.
The Embodiment Project is a balance of group-healing and customized 1:1 support. I will walk you through step by step as you explore the physical restrictions and karmic holding patterns within your own body. My course covers The Embodiment Codes: A series of 7 fascial connections that hold 7 major collective traumas in your own body.
You will have a much deeper understanding of how your body responds to stress and you will have the tools to manage your own body’s pain and emotional patterns after this program. By the end of this program, you will have the tools that you need to live an embodied life so that you are bring a more grounded sense of self into the work that you do as a healer, therapist or leader in your community.
THE EMBODIMENT CODES:
Code 1: Rooting into Desire and Worthiness (The Pelvis)
Code 2: The Mother Wound (Pancreas, Quadratus Lumborum, Chest Tissue and Mesentery)
Code 3: What are you Holding? (Respiratory Diaphragm/Jaw)
Code 4: Integration (Dural Tube)
Code 5: Balance (Shoulders/Low Back)
Code 6: Healing your Truth (Piriformis/Neck)
Code 7: Receiving your Self-Mastery and Focus (The Knees)
HERE IS WHAT YOU'LL GET
The tools in this course emerge from my work as an Occupational Therapist, highly trained fascial specialist, my own personal embodiment journey, and years of deep inquiry into trauma-informed bodywork and observation.
Over our 6 weeks together, you’ll receive the following:
Three group healing sessions on the Embodiment Codes via Zoom
Three Integration Circle sessions via Zoom
Guidance and training for over 20 self-treatment release techniques, postural alignment strategies, and functional exercise routines.
Unlimited access to over 20 self-treatment techniques, specialized resources for healing, and unique worksheets that you can use for your own healing practice and with your clients
New models for learning how to let go and connect deeper within and how to teach your clients to do the same
A community invested in their own embodiment, who meet regularly for study groups
