It is a dynamic, embodied process that provides a robust framework to address trauma, emotions and mental states as physical and vocal experiences.

This experiential workshop shares how VMT can provide a container for the amplification of self-expression, for the the exploration of personal narrative and subpersonalities, and for the creation of personally meaningful songs.

Participants will learn how to integrate elements of voicework, songwriting, breathwork and embodiment into their current therapy practice.

YOUR DEEPER SELF: AWAKEN YOUR VOICE

With Gina Holloway Mulder &

NZ Creative Arts Therapist Daniel Cunningham

Date: 30th – 31st August

Venue: The Kohimarama Yacht Club, Auckland (TBC)

Program Overview:

Our immersive 2-day offering provides a unique opportunity to engage deeply with your creativity while nurturing emotional well-being and a sense of vitality. Blending visual arts-making, movement and voicework we create a wonderful holistic container for self-exploration and connection. The embodied and playful interactions promote authentic connections and a deeper sense of healing through expression.

Focusing on embodied and creative processes, this is an invitation to engage with your lived experiences in a dynamic and revitalising way. Exploring personal narratives through an integrated arts approach is a rich, multi-sensory experience that promotes self-expression, self-resourcing and a unique release of self-imposed constraints, encouraging new perspectives and a deeper connection to your authentic self.

This workshop is designed for individuals seeking to enhance their well-being through creativity, movement and vocal expression as well as those who use their voices professionally – such a s teachers, healthcare workers, caregivers, and others. therapists interested in the voice as a therapeutic modality are also welcome as are people who desire to find their authentic voice.
