Trauma Immersion Experience 2024
There seems to be a saturation of retreats available today all claiming that each one is different…Well this one is!
Through our 35 years of clinical work with individuals we know the power of the collective group for healing. The Core Sentience Trauma Immersion Experience is focused on a deep journey into understanding yourself & others. It is a unique opportunity to take personal development to the next level with 24/7 guidance & support from Emma & Nicole.
THE EXPERIENCE
We live in a fast-paced world that keeps us from slowing down and being able to reach the hidden layers of the mind and body which hold unresolved stress and trauma.
We have carefully structured and designed the Immersion to provide:-
A solid foundation in understanding trauma.
Gain awareness of how to work with your mind, body, emotion and sensory systems psychologically and holistically.
Guidance on how to permeate defence layers and coping adaptations.
Identify and begin to clear limiting beliefs.
Learn how to regulate and balance the body through sacred ceremony and ancient wisdom.
Learn how to navigate ‘our stories’ through our ‘Child’ & ‘Teenage’ parts.
Guidanced Integration process and practices.
Every Core Sentience course or experience is constantly reviewed and adapted to meet the needs of our community, incorporate the latest psychological research and educate effective holistic practices from our continued training and development.

ANCIENT HEALING PRACTICES
What is Amazonian Hapé (Rapé).
From the indigenous point of view, Hapé is a sacred shamanic snuff medicine with profound healing effects. Hapé is the preparation of powdered medicinal herbs, often with a tobacco base.
Indigenous tribes in the Amazon basin continue to use Hapé in all aspects of life, from formal ritual use in rites of puberty, initiation, social gatherings and healing ceremonies.
There are several tribes that traditionally used Hapé - which include but are not limited to the Katukina, Yawanawa, Huni Kuin, Nukini, Kuntanawa, Apurinã, Ashaninka, and Matses - often produce their own specific kinds of Hapé blend and have different ways of preparing the herbal snuff, from techniques to songs that are sung during the Hapé rituals. Hapé can help focus the mind, strengthen meditation practice, calm and ground and clear sinuses of mucus and bacteria.
CACAO CEREMONY
When sourced thoughtfully, prepared ceremonially and enjoyed with intention, Cacao is a potent energetic medicine and very different from our previous experiences with chocolate. A Cacao ceremony involves a communal gathering with a sacred circle and music, enabling you to connect with your heart and guide you gently through transformational consciousness shifts.
SHAMANIC DRUMMING JOURNEY
Shamanism is based on the principle that innate wisdom may be accessed through our inner senses. Shamanic journeying is a way of connecting to your inner self. The drumming allows our brainwaves to shift into a theta state, a light, aware trance much like lucid dreaming, where we can find the answers within, such as healing, insight, meaning and direction.
REIKI
Reiki is a form of alternative energy therapy. This was developed by Mikao Usui in Japan in late 1800’s. Reiki treats the whole person, body, mind and spirit, to achieve balance and restore optimum health using hands on, or hands off treatment. A persons energetic balance can become disrupted or strained by stress, injury, trauma or illness. Life force energy is responsive to thoughts, feelings, presence and compassion. When Reiki is received the attuned energy travels to the parts of the body that needs it most. Reiki is particularly effective for managing stress within the body, both physical and psychological.
