3-hour workshop in bioenergetic exercises according to Alexander Lowen (session in German will take place in the afternoon, see separate event to sign up)

Are you experiencing one or more of the following?

• Low mood & energy
• Difficulties sleeping
• Overthinking & anxiety
• Tension headaches or stress-related stomach pains
• Low libido
• Irritability

After this 3-hour intro workshop you will:

Understand
Our emotions live in our bodies just as much as they live in our minds. During this intro workshop you will understand better why stress, depression, or anxiety affect your sleep, cause headaches and other physical symptoms.

Practice
You will learn simple exercises to help you get out of your head and feel your body better. This is not a fitness workout - the practice was designed in the 1950s by the psychiatrist and psychotherapist Alexander Lowen to help his patients.

Regulate
One of the main goals of somatic exercises is to help you regulate your emotions and feel better, calmer, and more energized. If you start to practice the exercises from the workshop regularly, you will be able to improve your mood and wellbeing.

Who it's not for
These workshops are not suitable for people who are very sensitive to noises and screaming (as people sometimes express their emotions with their voice). If you're undergoing treatment with antipsychotic medication or have had psychotic episodes, this is also not for you. Other contraindications include pregnancy and epilepsy. If you have serious medical conditions, get in touch to make sure this is right for you.

Anka Grzywacz - psychotherapist in training (Bioenergetic Analysis at the Süddeutsche Gesellschaft für Bioenergetische Analyse, 3rd year), sex therapist, psychological workshops facilitator
