Rescheduled: Saturday, Oct 14 - Sunday, Oct 15, 2023
This two day in-person workshop will be co-facilitated by Melina Bondy RPQ and Dr. Shira Taylor and will engage the tools of mindfulness and somatic awareness to grow skills related to Interpersonal Boundaries. Yes, that most tricky and challenging area of life! Whether you are needing to shift your boundary patterns with family, friends, a partner or colleagues, this workshop will help you to better understand what subconscious blocks may be affecting you, and how you can work with them in order to grow the kinds of relationships you would like to have in your life.
This workshop will focus on Physical Boundaries and is part of a series that also covers emotional boundaries and interpersonal communication skills. Participants can attend a single weekend or the whole series.
Location: 30 Dixon Rd, Seguin, ON P2A2W8
