This will be Ziphu’s fifth offering of an Esalen immersion in Fuzhou!

Esalen Massage is inspired by the rhythm of the Pacific Ocean waves and discovers the connection with self through the pulse of life.  A team of expert massage therapists collaborate to present this journey in connection to one another, to achieve harmony in our body, spirit and energy.

Touch is an enhancement for living.  Esalen Massage distinguishes itself with a sensitive and responsive approach to each person in every session.  In this hands-on work, body, mind and spirit are inextricably linked. This holistic approach is effective for health and healing, somatic concerns, physical stress reduction and a wholesome wellbeing.

In these 3 days we will sing, dance, breath and practice partner yoga around the theme of “Touch & Love”.  We open the body’s holding patterns, perceive the body’s space, turn the body into a river, a musical instrument to play and vocalize.

This will help you to find ways you never realized could open your body and enhance the space around you.  Your body will learn to flow and move spontaneously to breath and music. In Asia in particular affection and caring, loving touch are close to taboo.  Releasing these constraints allow us to build strong bonds and allow the body to be exposed and available to natural healing. Among a culture where touch is minimal and not encouraged, we have a lot to learn and explore to gain benefits from one of our most impactful senses.

A safe and welcoming environment is key to enabling this experience and soon your hands will be able to hold a safe and caring space for those you care for.  The qualities stored in the palms of your hands will be unlocked and able to move like water, to massage with every movement and every touch pouring the energy of love.
 

Who is this program for?

Romantic Partners – physical touch is one of the five primary love languages.  Perhaps it is not yet being fully utilized in the relationship between you and your partner.  This is a great opportunity to develop this form of communication.

Parents – Physical touch with our children is an important way to strengthen bonds and build healthy relationships.  Through long embraces, congratulatory high-fives or taking care through of playground scrapes and bruises, touch is a way we show our care and support for our children.

Caregivers for parents – As adults we communicate with our elders in words, but with a generation gap, there is often a feeling of separation from our parents and grandparents.  As their bodies grow older, this becomes a time our elders need help to ease pain, comfort and care for the body and the soul.

Aromatherapists – Touchis one of the many senses used in effective care for ourselves and our loved ones.  By adding essential oils to Esalen Massage, we heighten the sensory experience as we learn more about particular oils best used on the body.

Healing Arts Lovers – Yoga teachers, dance therapists, pre and post natal therapists, child therapists, social workers, corporate instructors, practitioners of Chinese medicine, spa trainers, alternative medicine practitioners, special education workers, body-mind practitioners, etc.  All those interested in the body, mind and spirit may learn immensely from this workshop.

No matter who you are, what your background may be, what profession you have, this course is dedicated to exploring the benefits of touch through massage in depth.
