Discover, Learn, Practice and Grow
Awareness and the Art of Healing (Foundations Course) is a required course prerequisite to the Menla Levels Training.
Training Levels -12 Month Course
Level I: the Hidden Fear of Health
Discover the sense of balance. It exists in everyone but is often covered over by our concepts of what we think our body should be instead of what our body- intelligence knows. We discover it through four gates: Unfolding of wellbeing, compassion, discriminating analysis and trust. Through this we also discover sickness inducing habitual patterns that prevent us from coming in contact with our basic health.
Level II: Touching the Heart of Healing
We learn methods of working with our fear and pain, and discover our wish to cover up as a spiral of suffering. We also can discover our own sensitivity and tenderness as the driving force for healing. This weekend is especially dedicated to getting in touch with one’s own personal experience..
Level III: the Threat of Illness
Understanding the principles and experience of contemplative healing allows us to face the reality of sickness and fear. With this we can experience the causal dynamics of becoming ill in our body and mind. As a process aid we apply the experiential aspects of the three life processes from the Tibetan healing arts.
Level IV: Discovering Humor in Healing
Exploring the mind/body stream of experience from the point of view of the present moment gives rise to intelligence and humor, which has direct relevance to the healing process. Through mindfulness of our experience and perceptions we can reconnect with our own healthy processes.
Level V: The Struggle with the Body
Discovering the power and the depth of our own emotional resistance is the focus for this weekend. This helps us to re-examine the habitual bodily patterns that contribute to becoming ill. Through this we give rise to a discriminating awareness that relaxes these resistances and gives rise to healthy patterns.
Level VI: Sickness as a Path
Every sickness offers us a precious opportunity to gain deeper insights into our own personal body-mind-confusion. Accepting the confusion with humor and clarity is our task. This allows us to take sickness as a path.
Level VII: The Inexhaustible Healer
The final weekend will provide us with an overview and practical advice as to how we can sustain a healthy balance in our everyday life.
