Embodied Spiritual Direction

Service Description

Embodied Spiritual Direction begins with a 30 minute trauma sensitive yoga practice followed by 30 minutes of spiritual direction. This added layer of embodiment holds space for you to connect with the divine wisdom of your body and explore it in spiritual direction. WHAT IS TRAUMA SENSITIVE YOGA? Trauma Sensitive Yoga utilizes breath and movement to release trauma and restore mind-body-spirit connection. TSY is NOT fixated on building strength, improving flexibility or moving you through a beautiful theme or flow sequence. Instead, space is held for you to attune to sensations in your body and make choices based on how you feel. Possible benefits include a restored sense of connection with your inner self & empowered agency toward expressing this TRUE self. NOTE: There is no spiritual element in TSY as not to not pull focus away from this inner experience and what is already holy, holy work. No form of prayer, sanskrit, or scriptural theme will be included. That said, many do encounter the Divine within a session as increased love & compassion toward the self or as an overall sense of peace. Eliza is an RYT-500 certified Trauma Sensitive Yoga Facilitator through TCTSY and the Center for Trauma and Embodiment at JRI. WHAT IS SPIRITUAL DIRECTION? Spiritual Direction is a spiritual practice with roots in 3rd century, early Christianity. Its purpose is to provide a companion and a discerning ear as you seek deeper Truths about yourself & God. Spiritual Direction is not problem-focused. Instead, it's assumed that no matter the situation, you are already under God's long & loving gaze and that good & holy wisdom already exists within you. Therefore, the "work" in Spiritual direction becomes that of locating the voice of Truth & Love and empowering you as you follow it. Eliza Jane approaches Spiritual Direction through a trauma-conscious lens and informed by her studies in yoga & mindfulness, trauma theory and contemplative Christianity. ALL ARE WELCOME: Truly House is a trauma conscious space rooted in Christ's simple gospel of love. I welcome people of all shapes, colors, backgrounds & identities as holy expressions of God's love & creativity. RATES: Embodied Healing is offered at the Standard Rate of $150 per session. A Diversity Rate of $120 is also available as a 2nd option to those who are either: living outside the US or living in the margins including LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, people with disabilities & single mothers.
