Everyone carries trauma. The depth of the wounding and type of experience can be the root cause of our physical, mental and emotional sufferings. Our resiliency is completely impacted by our experiences. We may not remember what happened or we may suffer from a continuous replaying of events and we may still be experiencing trauma. Trauma and our relationship to it impacts us on a holistic level. The last decade has brought tremendous and powerful new research and means for acknowledging the way we experience trauma and what we do with that experience.
During 6 Live Streaming classes, a strong and sacred container for trust and deep caring is created where we will mindfully venture into somatic experience (felt) and rekindle a relationship with our inner resources and strength. This course is not about necessarily reliving our traumatic events. It is providing you a path into your being to grow a new resource to increase and strengthen resiliency. Changing your relationship to the memory, to the feelings that arise consciously and subconsciously is a proven means to integrating and finding an entire new outlook and inner environment.
“A holistic approach to integrating and changing our relationship to our experience places the power back into the hands of the one experiencing the trauma and gently dissolves the grip the trauma has on the individual. ”

Holistic integration involves all aspects of our being. Integrating fragmented pieces of ourselves provides us with a true sense of Self, which in many traumatic events may be taken from us.
This course is open to any and all individuals willing and able to commit to the 6 month course. To create and hold this sacred space, most especially in a virtual classroom, your commitment and presence is essential. Together we will hold each other with integrity, confidentiality and grace. I welcome you with a pure and open heart into this course and will make myself personally available off line as we progress along. I have the utmost confidence that together we can grow and find new connections to ourselves and each other that will build our most important resources for resiliency.
Due to the nature of this work and my hope to welcome any and all that want to commit to this, I offer a sliding scale for those financially unable to meet the suggested fee. Please contact me directly with any and all questions and signup is available here. If you wish to sponsor another by providing scholarship, please feel free to offer more.

Testimonials from Course Graduates
Testimonials from Course Graduates
“This course has been extremely helpful to understand what is going on inside and to also have the tools to touch into that space to help heal. I now understand my feelings more and understand the root of my triggers and how to remain grounded when they arise. Not only has it been helpful to witness, understand, and work on healing the trauma but the breath work and mantras have been useful to calm my anxiety any time I am triggered. It has helped me to take much needed steps to NOT judge the darkness I have been carrying. I can honor my true Self.”
“You have been and are doing a great work in offering participants techniques and tools that are useful, mobile and practical. Thank you.”
“I feel that it (the course work) has reconnected me with the work that I had (for whatever reason) let go dormant so the remembering has been powerful and uplifting. A reawakening and a homecoming…thank you for reigniting a spark that has lain dormant for too long.”
“(This course) has given me lots of different ways to assimilate past trauma, as well as current stresses. I now have an expanded tool box to approach these things on many levels…with movement, with breath, in writing, with life supporting affirmations and even with drawing. I feel I am on the path to improved overall health, both by using the practices we learned and by having a more tuned awareness of stuck energy in my body. I’m feeling complete.”
“I can’t thank Denise enough for all the love and light she has have poured into my life over the years through yoga, mentorship, friendship, and especially during this course. This work has changed my life and I’m grateful to have a teacher like Denise to help guide the way with love and compassion.”
“I think the tools are very accessible and practical and can be layered on to other practices. It was not overwhelming. Through experimentation everyone can find what works for them. I thought you were uniquely qualified for this work, Denise. I am so glad I participated. It was truly a gift.”
“I am beyond grateful for this experience & the life skills you’ve been able to offer me. It’s been a tremendously difficult time it seems within, physically, with my associates, & the world causing intense feelings of turmoil. It has been incredibly challenging for me to be able to express myself to others & avoid desires of closing myself off. What an honor to have participated in what you’ve taken the time to offer. This course is allowing me to reintegrate back into myself, which will allow me to be present with those I care about, as well as helping others find peace with their trauma through being an example. My gratitude would be more accurately expressed with certain colors, sounds, or strums on my heart strings- but for lack of better terms, thank you.”
“To articulate in words everything I feel would be an effort made in vain. I feel relieved, excited, optimistic, and a little frightened/scared at the same time when I think about moving forward in this journey. This course is truly a gift, and I am grateful for the experience. Thank you. Thank you a million times.”
