Applied Learning in the Radix Somatic Approach to Personal Growth




Radix Somatic Experiential Workshop



November 6-8, 2026

West Hartford, Connecticut




Energy flow is our Life Force, our Vitality,

our Core Energy.


What happens when the world demands that we limit ourselves, stifling our Life Force? We might “toughen up” or “hold back” or even “disappear”. These processes can create internal conflicts, blocking our inner wisdom and reducing our energy flow. And in turn, that can affect our self-esteem, whether we trust and value ourselves, and whether we feel closed or open to other people in our life.


Imagine if your Life Force could flow freely throughout your body? What would it be like to feel your inner wholeness. How would it be to feel wholly alive? What would it be like to connect authentically to others?


Join us for a transformative workshop designed to help you experience your Life Force flowing through your body, enhancing your sense of aliveness and deepening your ability to connect with the people who most matter to you.


This workshop is primarily experiential, but will include some discussion on the basic concepts of the Radix approach to working with feelings and interpersonal connections.


SCHEDULE


Friday, November 6......... 6:00-9:00 PM

Saturday, November 7.... 9:00 am - noon, 2:00-5:00 pm

Sunday, November 8...... 9:00 am - noon, 2:00-5:00 pm



We begin on Friday evening by "warming up" our bodies and connecting with each other. Throughout the weekend, you'll have the opportunity to participate in a variety of group exercises designed to help you connect with your energetic process and its manifestation in your whole being. You'll also be offered individual sessions to deepen your ability to open to the pulsation of your life force.


This workshop is open to people who are new to somatic work, as well as those who have Radix or other somatic experience. Workshops can be an excellent adjunct to your individual personal work, and can deepen your personal growth in a focused and supportive environment.
