Primal - Childhood Deconditioning with Svarup de Kooning

This is a deep and intensive 6 days, full of practical elements, which helps us get closer and understand the connections between our childhood and our relationships, from birth and conception through pregnancy to early childhood. It offers more and more tools for understanding and liberating the most unconscious layers of our personality.

  • In this moment of crisis and transformation, it is fundamental to be conscious of our past oriented reactiveness and to come back to the here and now, where our true potential can unfold.

    Our sadness, fear, anger and numbness have deep roots in our early life history, and they often get triggered and played out in the present. This is just because all these feelings are buried and denied inside us, and they ask for completion: they need to be recognized, understood and transformed.

    Our lightness of being, our joy and creativity also have deep roots in our past. We did experience these qualities in our childhood, but we lost touch with them because nobody around could fully recognize them in their essential value.

    In this group you will be accompanied step by step back in time, through the stages of your development, recovering parts of yourself at each stage. You will be guided to reconnect with the child in you, learning again to listen to its needs and longings. You will discover the adult part in you that can take care of this child and appreciate its qualities and how they can transform your life now. You will be supported to express and release old emotions that block the flow of vitality in your body. You will explore your family setup with depth and compassion, completing what has remained unfinished. You will experience the difference between a past oriented reaction and a mature response to the present.

    Healing the inner child is a profound step toward reclaiming your true potential and celebrating the freedom of being fully yourself.

    For attendance to this group, it is advisable to have previous experience in some kind of inner work such as meditation and breath work.

    For the whole duration of the group the participants will be asked to refrain from any direct contact with the outside world.

In and Beyond Boundaries

In this group you will experiment with finding a new maturity, a new dance between going inside yourself and going beyond your usual limits.

  • We all need privacy, to rest, to feel ourselves, to cultivate our dreams. To simply have space. For this, we need to be able to feel and learn to respect the boundaries of our space. We need to be able to feel how far we want to open them to someone and yet remain connected with ourselves.

    But we all know the challenges around setting our boundaries.

    There is a history: when we were small children, our boundaries were invaded and ignored one way or another, in the family, at school, etc. To survive these invasions, we learnt either to shrink our space or to put rigid walls around ourselves.

    Now, as adults, we need to learn to create new flexible boundaries, which can allow both intimacy and respect for each other's space and feelings.

    In this group you will experiment with finding a new maturity, a new dance between going inside yourself and going beyond your usual limits.
