Do it Yourself

It’s also helpful to realize that this very body that we have, that’s sitting right here right now… with its aches and its pleasures… is exactly what we need to be fully human, fully awake, fully alive.

—Pema Chodron

This section includes a few exercises and tools that will give you a sense of the spirit and form of Heartwork. All of these experiences are designed to help you become more deeply in touch with yourself - your feelings, needs, wants, and deepest yearnings, alone and in relationship with others - and to provide ways of working in and through the issues that arise in the inner healing process. Ideally, they are meant to serve as agents for permanently changing your life by helping you become aware of the ways in which you keep yourself from having what you truly desire in your life, thereby freeing you to make more life-giving choices. They are bite-size tastes of what you would experience in individual Heartwork sessions and Heartwork Intensives, Retreats, and Workshops. We hope you find them valuable in your journey.
