Cost: $320About the Event
Do you long for mutuality and engagement in your relationships? Are you sometimes exhausted by offering endless empathy but rarely having the same care and curiosity turned back toward you? Do you wonder how to exist and share your own authentic response to things while hanging on to connection and inclusion?
Do you wish for some really good tools and approaches to bring liveliness to your interpersonal world?
If so, join Sarah Peyton for an 8-week exploration of the embodiment of mutuality in conversations with this 8-week study and practice of I-You language.

Who Is This Course For?
All are welcome. This course is perfect for students from beginners to advanced who long to show up more fully and authentically in their lives without sacrificing connection and without sacrificing themselves.
This Course Includes Resonant Support
Get assistant support during classes – experience resonant support from experienced practitioners when you need it during class times. Often, this work can have unexpected depth and touch on deeply held subconscious awareness and pain. Getting support when we need it most helps participants to integrate, regulate, and have a felt experience of the transformative power of resonance.
Here’s what a previous participant shared about having assistant support available during courses: “Thank you so much for offering the in class 1:1 support with a resonance assistant as part of the course. This opportunity has gone a long way to provide me with a personalized felt sense of the impact of this process when working with a trained and skilled person to a greater depth than I had experienced on my own. Such a gift.” ~ Dorothy

*PLEASE NOTE:
- Your tuition payment is non-refundable and transferable.
- Some partial scholarships may be available after September 5, 2022. Write to [email protected] on or after September 5 to inquire.
- This work is not therapy and is not a substitute for therapy. If you have a sense that you would be destabilized by yourself or others speaking about difficult events, then this course may not be for you. While we hope that the processes and information that we share can be of use in your journey, we do not have the resources to support extreme psychological difficulties.
