Farida spend six days with the students in the their second Naturopathic Immersion. After a day of connecting and exploring the elements of life, we spend a day of learning various deep and profound ways of self-touch and self-massage to heal our own bodies and open up to a free flow of energy. Amidst moans and groans - some places hurt a lot! - we went into deep, silent places listening to our own bodies. The last four days was a mixture of exploring our irises through the creation of an iris mandala and iridology. Creating the iris mandala was a return to the joy we had as children, being creative just for the joy of it. It was beautiful to see how the mandalas evolved as the days passed, and then to hear the stories of what the students put into their mandalas. In the iridology part we revisited some of the teachings from last September, but on another level, and explored advanced iridology. We saw demonstrated, and practiced, consultations, learning how to inspire our future clients to become more self-nurturing based on what we see in their eyes.
