Shaking Medicine® is a body-based (somatic) approach to stress\, tension\, and trauma release. \nBENEFITS OF REGULAR PRACTICE:\nPracticing Shaking Medicine® not only helps to bring balance into our bodies (and life!) but releases deep-seated muscular tension\, stress\, and mild trauma. These monthly classes will enable you to understand your nervous system\, and you will have a chance to learn and practice the Shaking Medicine® method. \nCome\, shake it off and shake your way to good health! \nShaking Medicine® is sometimes referred to as Bioenergetics or Trauma Release. It is one of the world’s oldest self-help medicines. \nShaking\, rocking\, vibration and oscillation are natural human reactions to: Stress\, Trauma & Ecstatic states. Shaking Medicine® is\, in short\, the healing power of ecstatic movement. Inspired by and brought to us by nature. The practice of Shaking is known by many: Quakers\, Gnostics\, Taoists\, Yoginis\, First Nations peoples\, Sufis\, Druids\, Zen Buddhists and more. \nWe are inspired by teachers such as Peter Levine\, Bradford Keeney\, Osho\, Wilhelm Reich\, Alexander Lowen\, John Peirakkos\, David Bercelli. \n“Trauma recovery work has got to develop a new paradigm\, because the paradigm that we have now is based on post-traumatic stress disorder and you go to a one to one therapist. You cannot do that with large groups of people. So there has got to be a new paradigm shift in the realization of “how do we do recovery from PTSD on a large scale population?” How do we get whole groups of people\, like villages for example\, or an entire school system healed? So that’s the first paradigm shift\, we have to change our concept of PTSD recovery so that we can work on a large scale.” \n– Dr. David Bercelli \nBelow is our video: \n \n\n\n\n\nVENUE:\nRound Chapel\, 1D Glenarm Rd\, Lower Clapton\, London E5 0LY\, United Kingdom \n(ENTRY on Lower Clapton Road\, big round building\, look for Ecstatic Dance sign on the door) \n-Overground: the nearest station is Hackney Central.

In our work\, meditation is not concentration\, but relaxation. You will simply relax into the shaking. Simply relaxing into yourself. The more you relax\, the more you feel yourself open and flexible. Relaxation means falling into such a strong state where you are not doing anything\, you simply relax into the shaking. \nShaking Medicine® is an organic\, dynamic\, rejuvenating practice that fuses the elements of movement and stillness to get you out of your head and into your body. \nThis practice supports and inspires instinctual intelligence – a conduit for self-healing through accessing the body’s nervous system for a safe\, natural\, well-being experience. \nAs we shake\, we remember how to let go of control and all effort\, we relax\, allowing ourselves to let go of anxieties and stress to help regulate emotions and develop greater resilience. \nIn this class\, you can expect to enhance your strength and flexibility\, improve your energy levels\, heal injuries through the stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system\, reduce inflammation\, improve your sleep\, create energetic and emotional hygiene for overall well-being\, promoting balance and harmony on a deep level. \nThe music will support the experience. We end with a relaxation stage where you are invited to lay down\, relax and let your whole Body-Mind system rest. \nExpect to expect nothing but what naturally arises and unravels as you tune in to what is real for you in any given moment. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShaking Medicine® – a Ritual of Resilience!\nWHAT YOU WILL NEED:\n1. Please come already dressed in comfortable clothing suitable for movement/fitness and dress in layers. Bring a set of dry clothes/small towel as you will probably get sweaty during the session. \n2. Yoga mat & blanket. Blindfolds will be provided. Now when it’s getting colder perhaps a pair of socks and an extra layer so that you are comfortable. \n3. a Reusable water bottle. Tap water refill available at the venue. \n4. A healthy snack to have after the session. \nSAFE SPACE \nThis class is an inclusive space focused on supporting each and every one of its participants. Please be respectful of others’ space\, property\, needs\, and process. Any display of antisocial or abusive behaviour will result in removal from the class without a refund. \nPERSONAL SAFETY \nA Shaking Medicine® class might not be the most suitable setting for people with severe trauma\, PTSD\, CPTSD\, burnout\, and serious health conditions or those who find it very challenging to self-regulate (unable to calm down when emotionally distressed). It would be more supportive to initially work in individual sessions. 1-to-1 counselling sessions. \nPREGNANCY \nShaking Medicine is not recommended. \nRECENT INJURIES & SURGERIES \nIt is best to give your body at least 3 months to heal after a surgery or serious injury before doing Shaking Medicine®. Please contact us if you would like to discuss your circumstances. \n*PLEASE READ -IMPORTANT: \nShaking Medicine® should not be considered as a substitute for proper medical consultation for physical\, mental and/or psychological illnesses. It may not be suitable for everyone. Shaking can involve some physical strain and a rise in intra-abdominal pressure. \n● Advanced (bleeding) piles ● Any kind of hernia ● Any persistent cough ● Anything with acute symptoms ● Epilepsy\, Heart Disease ● High blood pressure\, Incontinence ● Major psychiatric disorders ● Severe backache ● Or having undergone surgery within the last 3 months \nThis list is for guidance only and is not meant to be exhaustive. If in doubt\, first consult a trained medical professional for guidance. \nPlease feel free to contact us if you need more information. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCAN YOU SHAKE YOUR WAY TO GOOD HEALTH? \nShaking Medicine® is sometimes referred to as Bioenergetic Shaking\, or Kundalini shaking. It is one of the worlds oldest self-help medicines. Shaking\, rocking\, vibration and oscillation are natural human reactions to: Stress\, Trauma & Ecstatic states. We inherently use oscillation as a tool to calm our nervous system. for example\, think of why we rock a crying baby to sleep. \nThe practice of Shaking is known by many: Quakers\, Gnostics\, Taoists\, Yoginis\, First Nations peoples\, Sufis\, Druids\, Zen Buddhists and more. \nShaking Medicine® is a Self-Healing body response to trauma as it can help to clear and release blocks that cause dis-ease. After a shaking the session\, the body naturally shifts to a higher vibration and the shaking brings all of the body systems into balance. \nShaking Medicine® is a wonderful way to let the body really move\, shake up and release stress & tension\, and bring in new fresh energy – revitalising yourself Body Heart & Soul. \nShaking Medicine® is both 1) a contemporary somatic therapy practice for grounding and mobilising the Body-Mind. And 2) an ancient Shamanic technique for achieving non-ordinary states of consciousness – optional blindfolds available! \nHEALTH BENEFITS OF SHAKING: \nOne of the easiest ways to help the body release tension & stress is to shake. The simple act of shaking your body can produce a multitude of health benefits. Although it may seem simple\, it is a very powerful technique. \nThe main purpose of our Shaking Medicine classes is to relax the body and release tension. When we shake the body\, we are relaxing all our joints\, muscles\, tendons and ligaments\, helping us to loosen up and feel relaxed. \nShaking gently bounces our organs and stimulates our lymphatic system. Our lymphatic system is like our bodies draining system and is responsible for the removal of waste material from every cell in the body\, in addition to regulating the immune system. Maintaining a healthy lymphatic system is critical if we want to be radiant and healthy. \nShaking also benefits our circulatory system. Most of us hold on to a lot of tension in the body\, especially around the neck\, shoulders and back area. Poor posture\, sitting on chairs and sofas for extended periods of time\, stress and even negative thought patterns and emotional blockages can all contribute to the build-up stress and tension in the body. We spend our days hunched over computers\, our heads locked on to our iphone screens\, then we go home and slouch on the sofa to watch TV for hours. \nOur fast-paced\, stress-filled lifestyles leave us feeling ‘uptight’ and most of us can never fully relax. If we allow this tension to build up in our bodies if can manifest itself as pain\, stiffness\, inflammation\, and disease. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFACILITATOR:\n◈ Sessions are facilitated by Seth Newman \nSeth Newman: As the founder of the URUBU School of Transformational Arts\, he integrates the roots of Humanistic therapies\, Bioenergetics & Body Psychotherapy\, Transpersonal Psychology and Tantra in creative and life-transforming workshops\, retreats and trainings. As a coach\, Seth is dedicated to helping people calm\, empower and rejuvenate their busy minds and bodies to achieve the best versions of themselves.
