In utero we recapitulate the planet; all life form begins the same way.

At some point, depending on chemical codes we begin
to differentiate,
buds now become
fins or paws or arms,
but it is all one
and ever-present,
a liquid benediction,
a blessing from life.

WORKSHOPS & RETREATS with Emilie Conrad
June through October 2009

Wellsprings Practitioners Training*
Emilie Conrad & Robert Litman
June 3-20, 2009 -$2700 (application required)
Continuum Studio, Santa Monica, CA
For Information 310.593.4651
theField@ContinuumMovement.com

* This program is designed for licensed practitioners with a minimum of 100 hours Continuum experience. Please check website for Application and further information.

The goal of this practitioner-training program is to offer a breadth of approaches to those who have dedicated themselves to the art of health. Attention will be paid to pre and post-natal adaptive patterns that maintain the basic imprint of
one's engagement with life.

You will learn to recognize the retentive inertia held in early adaptations seen in the shaping of tissue structure and breath. Practitioners will learn to develop and coach breath/movement protocols encouraging clients to access
their own healing intelligence.

Our Body...Our Future
Emilie Conrad
June 26-28, 2009
Shantigar in Rowe, MA
www.shantigar.org 413-339-4332 email@shantigar.org

OUR BODY...OUR FUTURE... This is a revolutionary approach to a quantum re-mapping of the human body. Tissue Structure becomes multi-dimensional as streams of nourishment are readily absorbed as if one were bathing in the elixir of life itself.

We thrive by expanding the scope of our sensory experience, leading us to access alternative streams of life. We enter the domain of cells, mitochondria and other organisms micro-moving beneath the surface of our conventional world. Our movements are now fractals of universal motifs orchestrating themselves within our versatile tissue. No longer bound in limited time/space, we move freely within the universe of our organism. We can now describe the human body as a continuum of creative possibilities freely expressing the dexterity of an encompassing life.

Become adventurers in the unmapped territories of the human body. Experience the scope of our humanity by entering into frequency realms that are not bound by time, space or condition. Learn to move with profound restorative energies enriching our consciousness and nourishing our souls.

Just as outer space has increased our knowledge of the world, the same holds true for our inner space. In this, we become pioneers of new ways of moving, knowing and engaging in the glorious mystery of existence.

Welcome to Our Future!!

Moving Medicine with Emilie Conrad
June 29-July 3, 2009
Omega Institute, New York
Omega Institute 800-944-1001, registration@eomega.org

The human body is a composite of a vast and potent network from cosmos to the primordial deep to our cellular matrix, all orchestrated by an elegant composite of interpenetrating signals. This resonant network allows us interactions that provides a profoundly beneficial effect on every bodily system.

Responsiveness is a key factor in denoting health whether in cells or in infants;
we thrive through dynamic interactions and play.

Consequently, habitual defenses become shields protecting us from the “art of re-newal”,
thwarting the gush of ongoing life.

Together, we become immersed in a revolutionary approach to a quantum re-mapping of the human body in order to discover ourselves as renewable resources. Our tissue structure becomes multi-dimensional as streams of nourishment are readily absorbed as if one were bathing in the elixir of life itself.

Becoming adventurers in the unmapped territory of our bio-cosmic anatomy engages us with frequency realms not bound by time, space or condition. At last, we learn to summon the scope of eternal vital energies, enriching our consciousness and nourishing our souls.

Writing the Waves, part of Liberating the Arts
Emilie Conrad & Rebecca Mark
FULL WAIT LIST ONLY
August 8-11, 2009 - $475(early)/ $500
Continuum Studio, Santa Monica, CA
For Information 310.593.4651,
theField@ContinuumMovement.com
see Liberating the Arts page for info on the 4 workshop series

As we emerge from the sourcing of our Continuum journey we put pen to paper and revel in the writing, hieroglyphic renderings, ciphers and mysterious cave drawings that sometimes appear as stories, poems and possibly dialogues as emergent characters surprisingly appear.

We find ourselves in a process that is individually illuminating, mysterious, communally healing, politically radical, and in forms of genius never seen before. We move, we sound, our voices blend, our gestures reveal the moment as alive with creative fire.

Ultimately this process helps us witness the immense brilliance of the wave of cellular illumination and innovation that we as humans are suspended in.

August Depths Retreat
Emilie Conrad & Susan Harper
FULL/ WAIT LIST ONLY
August 20-27, 2009 - $1425 Private / $1300 Double
Holy Spirit Retreat Center, Encino, CA
For Information 310.593.4651,
theField@ContinuumMovement.com

The fundamental ingredients for health and sanity lie in communal solitude where our personal lives and our resonance with others becomes more fully realized. The Depths Retreats are designed to provide an embrace of rapport and care where we enter our dreamtime both individually and collectively.

“All nighters” are based on the Asclepion healing temples of ancient Greece, providing a context for our ever deepening stillness. The creative dark of new life is summoned
when we become fully aware of ourselves as a moving life current
without designated boundary.

The Art of Health with Emilie Conrad
September 2-6, 2009 in Switzerland
Catherine Kocher 41-79-217-78-82, catherinekocher@bluewin.ch

The Alpha & Omega of Spiritual Birth with Emilie Conrad
Brussels, Belgium
September 9-13, 2009
Anne Sophie Anciaux 0032-67 22 04 04, asanciaux@euphonynet.be

We come together to invoke the Ancient Mystery school once existing as a means of experiencing the Divine within each human heart. These Ancient teachings brought knowledge: God is not elsewhere but lies within the quiver of our own fluid destinies, an inherent spirituality...our birthright.

In these times of extreme fragmentation and stress, summoning our inner resources within our communities and ourselves is essential to living as a truly unified consciousness.

The holy spirit of water has played a central role in all religious practices and has long been recognized as a wisdom teaching, gifting us with illumination, health, and insight.

All rites of passage were expressions of bio-cosmic processes bringing to Devotees a link to a universal motif existing in the Eternal heavens as well as in their own bodies.

Rituals were designed as physical re-enactments of cosmic processes. All practices of re-newal followed a similar pattern. There was an incubator, container, uterus, alchemical vessel or sarcophagus holding the vital ingredients as the transforming spirals of life reverberated through the precious liquid.

The symbol containing all of this is the Uroboros, the serpent swallowing its tail whilst embracing the cosmic egg signifying the union of all opposites, “Divine Coupling”. The immensity of this symbol is at the core of all spiritual teaching linking us to life, death and resurrection as the movement of “wholey” existence.

The Uroboros can be realized as a spiraled passage where the birth canal and the bardo are united as one enters and exits this world on an undulating wave of deliverance.

Ultimately one comes away from these Ancient re-enactments with a sense of renewal and purpose. Our inner teacher is present, and with its pulsating palpability, we face the challenges of life with an awakened and undaunted heart.

Waves of Consciousness (see flyer)
Emilie Conrad & Suzanne Scurlock-Durana
in Reston, Virginia
October 16-20, 2009
For registration & further information see Suzanne's website
Suzanne Scurlock-Durana 703-620-4509, healingfromthecore@comcast.net

Suzanne Scurlock-Durana and Emilie Conrad continue in their thirteenth year of collaboration to pursue the vastness of the human experience.

Our concern in these tumultuous times is to deepen our potential to source ourselves in greater life-supporting ways. Our current capacity to be present is an accumulation of all of our experiences up to now; our goal is to increase this experiential range. The facility to fully feel our bodies as a vibrant flow of moving energy with healthy boundaries and with life-enhancing resources becomes ever more vital in today’s world. The artistry of life is dependent upon the loosening of our defensive postures that compromise the richness of existence. Once loosened, we have access to the energy of love, of eros.

All bio-cosmic information arrives in waves and spirals but often cannot penetrate our dense, conditioned tissue. Tissue restrictions, from a cellular level, through our organ structures out to our skin repel the richness of bio-cosmic information forcing us to experience the world from the narrow perceptual lens of linear time. When we are missing the capacity to sense what is going on in the present moment of our bodies, the only alternative is to orient ourselves through our past history,
locking us into a repetitive emotional circuit.

Breath and sound, coupled with conscious awareness, are two of the most effective means to develop sensory receptors within our tissue structures, as well expanding our time–space orientation. This allows us to step into our full body presence where we feel the cellular radiance effortlessly exuding a unifying atmosphere feeding
all that we do, create and touch.

The Welcoming Dark*
Emilie Conrad
October 22-26, 2009 in New York, NY
Mary Abrams 212-206-7542, mary@movingbodyresources.com

This is an invitation to dwell
in the gestating dark where the
quiver of new life begins its stir.

A field of vibrating resonance
arises where at last we can embrace
the slow tide of primary existence
undulating through our tissues.

Our sensory system blossoms
as our visual primary dominance
no longer holds sway. A plethora of
exquisite sensations propels us
into a land of brilliant discovery
as we awaken to new forms of life.
