Matwork Tasters – online introductions to IWC’s central group work
February 7, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Join us for a delicious taster or two, if you have never tried matwork…or a delightful refresher and cosy touching base with us for another year, as we offer two introductions to the renowned matwork processes.

A wide blend of modalities is available in matwork including but not limited to: Somatic Psychology, Jungian psychology, Process Oriented Psychology, Core Shamanic, Inner Constellations, Focussing, Voice Dialogue, Psychodrama, Energy work, Deep Ecology, Australian Indigenous healing, Native American healing and bodywork, Maori Bodywork, breath, movement and other approaches to understanding, insight, healing and development.
For decades this blend of allowing the momentum of the process to open and guide us to where the person/s’ healing can be accessed, has helped thousands of people into a freer, better and easier life by moving through patterns that hold them back or create stress or confusion.
Everyone who attends can relate to one or more issues that the person working in the middle is exploring. So everyone works, everyone who is present benefits in their own healing journey because most of us have similar challenges in our inner and outer landscapes. (new paragraph) Just being there, in a safe, healing circle is beneficial. Taking up a role for the person during their process is extremely helpful and insightful. We usually see that it connects and helps what we are going through in our own lives. (new paragraph) This is a substantial healing and transformational space, where you participate as much or as little as you like. All welcome.
Please join us on either or both of these introductory samplers as we experience the healing and transformation in a safe space, the group’s wisdom and the synchronicity of Spirit. Vouchers available if you would like to gift this experience to another.
