What’s the purpose of the SOUL IN TOUCH Massage Workshop?
The SOUL IN TOUCH Massage Workshop is more than an introduction to bodywork—it’s a journey back to presence, awareness, and connection.
In today’s world, being fully present is a rare skill, yet it’s essential for true well-being. Through Qi Gong and Bodywork practices, you’ll learn to release stress and invite peace back into your life, rediscovering your natural connection to yourself, others, and the surrounding environment.
This course was designed with a focus on enhancing awareness not only of your physical touch but also of your whole being, which is key when supporting others on their healing journeys. When we’re fully present, we begin to feel more balanced, more connected to our surroundings, and more intentional in our choices—from the food we eat to the relationships we nurture and the work we value.
In a society where our attention is often scattered, these practices can help restore human-to-human and human-to-nature connections, benefiting our immune system and overall mental health. Stress levels can drop, and we’re less likely to feel anxious, reactive, or drawn to unhealthy habits.
Reconnect with your essence—return to the basics of presence and awareness, and let SOUL IN TOUCH be your guide to a more intentional, fulfilling life.
Course Outline & Key Components of the SOUL IN TOUCH Massage Workshop
Join us for the SOUL IN TOUCH Massage Workshop, a powerful introduction to the art of energetic and physical bodywork. In this immersive weekend experience, you’ll gain an in-depth feel for the unique SOUL IN TOUCH modality—a bodywork approach designed to connect you with presence, sensitivity, and profound awareness.
During our two-day, 12-hour course, you’ll be guided through a grounding Qi Gong sequence, crafted to help you tune into the present moment and become fully receptive to another person’s energy. You’ll also learn to both give and receive two beautiful bodywork sequences—one face-up (supine) and one face-down (prone)—allowing you to experience the depth and quality of SOUL IN TOUCH from both perspectives.
For those ready to go deeper, a full online course invites you to integrate and expand what you experienced in the SOUL IN TOUCH Massage Workshop. You can move through it at your own pace, deepening both understanding and embodiment. Ongoing online gatherings offer a space for questions, shared learning, and guidance toward your next steps, including further table massage trainings.
A beautiful journey back to an ‘human being’ rather than a ‘human doing’.
What’s SOUL IN TOUCH?
SOUL IN TOUCH is a bodywork method, that unites different healing arts to touch someone’s soul essence and to reveal the healing power of human to human connection.
Being present and aware of the food we eat, gives us the possibility to really feel into ourselves what foods we need at any given moment of our lives.
As we remain present & aware with nature, we will learn more about ourselves, and how we are closely connected with her. Practicing in nature will offer a feeling of inner contentment, which has a natural effect on your well being.
No matter if in between family members, friends or couples, to gift someone else with your attention and pure presence is already healing in many ways.
Through Bodywork, we relearn to just be, and actively listen, to give another the feeling to be heard, to be seen and to offer care from the heart.
The learnings of the SOUL IN TOUCH WORKSHOP can be adapted into your daily life, for instance:
- the way we physically approach others
- the way we communicate to others
- the way we respond rather than react, remaining in our center, no matter what occurs.
- what food our body is asking for
- understanding more the natural connection in between human to human and human to nature
- creating inner contentment with the healing power of being in a safe community
The healing power reveals through conscious touch, more so than simply applying technique. Technique comes with experience, but the lasting nourishing effect is due to the care and presence you are able to offer. In the SOUL IN TOUCH method we practice a soft, gentle, at the same time profound touch. A touch that consists of pure presence and awareness, the hand melts in the other and starts to become one.
As we would ask for permission to enter into someone’s space or body, that’s where touch becomes meaningful, with a memorable blue print. A co-created healing space where the feeling of oneness unfolds organically.
This may sound an unachievable task, but you will be amazed how fast you will be able to practice to touch consciously, and incorporate this quality into your daily life.
Conscious Touch is the oldest existing healing power of humanity, we just need to come back into the feeling body.
