This workshop enables you to be more powerful, free and effective in all your communication.
You will gain the ability to:
Speak your full truth powerfully -- even in the most challenging situations.
Stay open, loving and connected when communicating your limits and requests.
Say more frequent and more juicy "Yes's" -- now that you truly have an irresistible "No"
"Giving Good No": where the receiver not only hears and honors your "No", but in the process feels loved and in connection with you -- enabling the relationship to be not just preserved, but enhanced. Knowing you have this ability will enable you to feel powerful, alive and at ease in your body anytime you wish to have your truth be heard and honored.
In this experiential workshop, we'll learn how to say "No" in a way that is clear, firm, and empowering -- as well as open, loving, and affirming.
Being able to say "No" with power & skill also allows you to say "Yes" to more opportunities. A dependable "No" gives you the confidence to handle, stop, or redirect any situation that comes up in the moment -- even if you've already said "Yes".
Saying "No" with clarity will allow people to trust your "Yes" more deeply. They can rest in the knowledge that you are taking care of yourself and will tell them if something is bothering you.
With a Good "No" you get to experience more joy & ease -- and spend less time being anxious and guarded. You can revel in the experience of deeply enjoying and receiving the things that you are a "Yes" to -- and lovingly yet clearly declining that which you don't want.

In this workshop, we go through three experiential levels:
First, we practice getting in touch with whether we are a "Yes" or a "No" in a given situation. We learn how to stay connected with our bodies and find out what our truth is even in the face of someone else having a clear vision of how things should be. We also learn how to track as we change from a "Yes" to a "No" (and vice versa) as the situation changes. Just because we were a "Yes" a few minutes ago, we may now be a "No." It's important to be able to stay connected to our bodies as that changes from moment to moment. Once we can do that, we can relax more fully into everything that is a "Yes" for us, even if we know that farther down the line, the situation may call for a "No."
Second, we focus on learning how to say a powerful "No" in the face of another person's demanding "Yes". We will develop your ability to really feel in your body your right and ability to stand up and stick to your "No" in the face of another person's strong-willed "Yes". At this level you learn how to be able to say "No" with not just your words, but your voice intonation, your emotional expression, your gestures, and your whole body so that all of you is in alignment and your "No" is heard, received, and respected.
Third, we learn how to stay open and loving and connected to the other person while giving an unambiguous "No." Often, people respond more to the love and openness, or to the fear and closure, they sense in another person, than to the content of what that person is communicating. We might think that someone really wants our "Yes," when what they more deeply desire is to stay in connection with us. The love and openness in your "No" can feed and nourish your connections with others more than a tight, closed, or inauthentic "Yes."
This experiential workshop will be taught using WholeBody Learning. In addition to learning concepts in your mental body -- you'll also experience them in your physical, emotional, intuitive & spiritual bodies -- your "WholeBody." Thus, you'll be better able to fully embody your new-found power & freedom.

The Purpose of WholeBody Wisdom is to empower and integrate all parts of yourself -- so that you can be:
Passionate,
Powerful,
Open, and
Loving
in the face of real world challenges.
WholeBody Wisdom
is based on the belief that we are the most powerful and free when we have integrated all parts of ourselves into one healthy system.
This system includes the mental body, the physical body, the
emotional body,
the intuitive body and the sexual body.
When each body is aligned with our core essence, and the bodies are
synergistically functioning together -- we can experience the greatest peace of mind
as we joyfully serve ourselves, our relationships and the world around us.
We believe that each body has valid wants, needs, desires and concerns.
These need to be, at the very least, heard and acknowledged.
Each body also has unique wisdom, strength and guidance to share with the other areas of the self. We are at our wisest when we are able to hold court listening to the interests, concerns and wisdom of each part of ourselves. Not being controlled by any one, but being advised and supported by them all.
WholeBody Wisdom offers workshops & private sessions which help men, women and couples embody powerful ways of being that can transform their life, their relationships, and the world around them.
