NSIOur approach
This intensive brings story, body, relationship, and spiritual formation into experiential practice. In four days, participants are invited into focused work that can open years of personal growth—at a pace that honors each person’s readiness.
- Work deeply with the stories that shaped you.
- Explore how unprocessed wounds continue to live in the body.
- Meet the younger and protective parts of yourself with honesty and compassion.
- Develop greater intimacy with the shadow parts of your experience.
- Practice truth, integrity, vulnerability, and changed action.
- Work in a space that is both safe and appropriately challenging—without being pushed beyond your consent.
Topics may include
Prepare for the workshop
Before arriving, participants complete guided reading and writing assignments. You will map the stories that shaped you, then choose one story to explore in greater detail through memory, sensation, and meaning. Preparation helps you arrive ready for the work.
Participants may choose a Deceptive Sexuality track, an Abuse track, or both. Reading recommendations and assignment details are provided after application.
