In a studio in Clil and the nature of the Western Galilee 


 

​meet yourself
root deeper into your essence

loosen old patterns
learn new concepts and tools

surrender more into LIFE

create here a Home for the Spirit

What will it look like?

We will meet every other week sometimes in special spots in nature when weather allows  and in a studio in clil (an eco-village in the Western Gallilee)
The meetings will be made up of:

personal and group work
Teachings from the field of Body-Mind
Guided Sessions in Nature

The Intention is to meet you right where you are, and take it from there.
This process is meant both to help you drop deeper into your inner wisdom, and give you new tools and concepts to support you to your next personal and Professional leap.

 

Bodies of Knowledge that are part of my work:

Mindfulness: For 20 years this has been the undercurrent to all transformational work I have done – whether as a spiritual director, Rabbi, body-mind or conscious sexuality retreat facilitator, and in my clinic of body-centered mindfulness based psychotherapy I have learned that without awareness in everyday life there could be no real transformation.

Body Centered Psychotherapy: Our body is an information center for our Subconscious and Superconscious. Listening to it is key to giving a place to more of our parts, including wounded ones, waiting to be heard. It helps us come out of our confusion, to know what we really want, get comfortable in our own skin, and realize so much more of who we are. In our group work and personal exercises we will will tune in and do work with our body's psyche.

  

Eco Therapy: Though my personal experience and years working with people in Nature I have come to realize the incredible force of healing the Mama Earth is. Her healing and teaching  is way beyond my personal or any healer's ability. It is incredibly important to me t to find new ways to harness her power to heal wounds and help us connect to our wild nature.   

Intimacy, Relationships, Healthy Attachment: Our ability to create healthy relationships in our life is critical to our sense of balance and fulfillment, yet most of us are very wounded in this department, and have received very few tools in order to create the kind of fulfilling relationships we crave for. In my work, healing early attachment and relational wounds  is a core intention alongside receiving and practicing new tools that create healthy practices and healing in our present day relationships. In this work I incorporate knowledge for my Hakomi Training as well as NVC which as literally changed my life, and I believe the lives of many of my clients.
 

Gender, Sexuality and the life force: These two are such a primary drives in our existence!

they can bring such joy and pleasure and such misery and suffering. We cannot live out our true potential without tending to that part of ourselves and bringing full awareness to our patterns as men or women, in a simple and curious way. So much shame and guilt are attached to this very natural part of our existence, and this is what makes it such a key to our freedom. This, along with healing our gender wounds as Men and Women in our society is incorporated in my work. Not standing on its own, but as part of the larger experience.

Free Authentic Movement: the liberty to move our body freely and authentically, not just on the dance from, but in everyday life is a huge key to a sense of ease and freedom. So much of our life we are holding our body, our breath, our sound to someone else's standards of social acceptability. Releasing into our comfort and expression makes so much room for playfulness and makes so much room for who we are creating the Larger life movement we are longing for.

Spiritual Direction: What is that still small voice guiding us? Can we hear it? Opening up to the mystery in all ways is a huge passion of mine, probably the biggest one of them all. Clearing all voices coming from the mind, surrendering to the larger wisdom, to the Web of Life, (call it as you will) is our gift as humans. All imbedded in this course is the recognition of The Divine in us and in all, and the fine tuning of our inner ear to hear it guiding us - telling us the secrets of LIFE.

The Work of Byron Katie: Inquiry of my thought patterns with the Byron Katie's guidance has been absolutely pivotal for me, and with my clients I often use this to go deeper into self realization, and releasing the core of addictive patterns. I have developed a unique way of using The Work, and within our group process I will use The Work and teach participants how to do it themselves and with others. 

 

How do we create a home for our spirit here on earth? Most of us either fly to high or are bogged down by the material world. How do we make this place a home for Us? How do you create more ease and comfort within? Much of what should have been the foces early on in our schooldays was far from it, but it is never to late to jump into the process and receive that focus and tools your spirit is asking for!

I participated in three different intensive workshops with Ela during a big change in my life. Her ability to touch the deepest places that need healing with precision brought me safety even in the moments I felt totally vulnerable. Her presence and inner power motivated me to ask myself: “what do you want” and move forward.  I felt she is a very professional and integrated “teacher”. It was a supportive group process, as she was holding space with a loving heart and individual treatment. I felt full respect for my own tempo with minimum words. She is not afraid to connect various methods and walk her own path. She is full, naked, in truth, she is a human being.
