This workshop is designed to guide you on a journey of deep connection with yourself through an intentional blend of movement, breathwork, and self-inquiry. It invites you to access the wellspring of your inner wisdom through a series of connective exercises, enhancing your ability to tune into what you are sensing, feeling, and thinking in the present moment.
What to Expect: 
After gathering and settling in, the class will begin with a gentle yoga flow to bring you into presence with your body and cultivate awareness of your nervous system’s current state. As you move through a restorative asana practice, you’ll be guided through various active breathwork techniques, allowing you to explore the profound impact of conscious breathing and movement.
From this embodied state, the group will transition into Gestalt-inspired self-inquiry. Depending on the size of the group, we’ll form dyads or triads (groups of 2 or 3). Participants will form dyads or triads (groups of 2 or 3), with each person taking 10–15 minutes to explore questions like, 'How are you, really?' followed by a 5-10 minute period of dialogic reflection.
Using Gestalt inquiry principles, you’ll practice observing and naming your inner experiences—what you sense, feel, and think—without judgment. This process strengthens your ability to stay present with emotions, move beyond reactive patterns, and cultivate deeper self-awareness. As you inquire, the other members of your group will act as silent witnesses, offering nonjudgmental presence and creating a container for authentic expression.
This practice is profoundly helpful for gaining clarity on the state of your inner landscape, while also showing you the state of your sense of connectedness to the outer world. Additionally, the experience of both fully seeing others and being completely heard creates a safe space for transformation, and a fertile ground for integrating both light and shadow aspects of your inner world.
A note on inquiry: This Gestalt inquiry format is not meant to be a substitute for therapy or counseling. Instead, it offers a powerful toolkit for cultivating a lifelong practice of self-inquiry. It encourages us to approach our inner world with curiosity and compassion, embracing and integrating the parts of ourselves that seek healing—rather than rejecting the aspects we find difficult or uncomfortable, as we’re often conditioned to do.
