​Protecting Your Energy When Holding Space for Others

​When you spend your time holding space for others, you are not only working with words and emotions. You are also constantly navigating the energy of the people, spaces and experiences you encounter.

How much are you picking up from others, without being aware?

​How much are you bringing back home?

​How do you know what is yours and what is not yours?

How do you release what you may have carried from a space or interaction?
And what practices can help you return to yourself after emotionally or energetically intense experiences?

​This workshop is an introduction to energetic hygiene and smudging practices designed for people who regularly work in vulnerable, emotional or spiritual spaces.

​Who is this for?

​This workshop is especially for you if you:

• ​Facilitate teams, workshops, retreats, ceremonies or healing spaces

• ​Work as a team leader, coach, healer, therapist, bodyworker or wellness practitioner

• ​Work with plant medicine or other altered-state practices

• ​Are beginning to sense you're absorbing energy from others and want to learn how to work with it consciously

• ​Want to develop a simple personal ritual for energetic cleansing and protection

​You don’t need previous experience with smudging or energetic practices.

​Come with curiosity, an open mind and a willingness to explore.

​What we’ll explore

​We will explore simple rituals and practices you can integrate into your own life and work to create stronger boundaries around your energy and consciously transition in and out of spaces you hold for others.

​You’ll learn:

• ​How to become more aware of your own energetic state

• ​Simple practices for energetic protection before and after holding space

• ​How to use smudging as a ritual of cleansing and transition, in shamanic traditions, which plants from which land to work with and for which purpose

• ​How to practice smudging yourself in a simple way you can integrate into everyday life

• ​How to release what no longer belongs to you and reconnect with yourself

• ​How to create personal rituals around workshops, ceremonies and other intense experiences

• ​How to approach these practices with respect to sacred plants, intention and integrity
