• Releasing stress and trauma (Israel and Australia)
  Through an innovative technique called TRE – Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises, developed by Dr. David Berceli, it’s possible to help people release deep tensions and stress that are locked in the body and the nervous system. It’s not only about developing mental strategies, but to reach the root of the question.
• Embodied Decision Making: awakening your intuition (Israel and Australia) 
  Most of the time people loose their capacity to listen to the information their bodies give about the environment, situations, people, opportunities. We can re-connect to this natural wisdom and intuition, which can support us in many life situations.
