Level Three
Next Cohort: August 18 - 21, 2025
*Pre-Requisite ReStory Institute Level Two Completion
Are you ready to learn how to walk with others into the places most people turn away from?
ReStory Institute Level 3:
Walking into the Shadow
Level 1 introduced you to the sacred landscape of story.
Level 2 deepened your capacity to navigate, name, and engage stories of harm.
Level 3 invites you to go deeper still—into the terrain where trauma embeds itself in the mind, body, and soul.
ReStory Institute Level 3 is designed for those ready to step deeper into the core stories—those tangled in shame, fueled by contempt, hidden behind envy, numbed by denial, and buried in despair.
~ By now, you’ve grown skilled in understanding how stories are formed.
~ You’ve engaged the five core losses and how our interpretations shape the narrative.
~ And you carry a hunger to bring greater clarity, courage, and compassion into the more complex landscapes of the heart.
In-person immersive training intensive
4 days in Tempe, Arizona - August 18 - 21
We believe learning how trauma is held and released through the body is sacred work and best experienced face-to-face, in the presence of others.
Through guided bodywork, somatic exercises, and creative movement, participants will engage practices that deepen attunement to the body’s signals, expand capacity for regulation, and support the gentle unwinding of trauma.
This embodied approach is rooted in safety, consent, and the theological conviction that the body is a vessel of memory and pain and a sacred place of revelation and restoration.
You will be invited to explore your own story through the lens of the body and to develop the skills needed to companion others with integrity, tenderness, and attuned presence.
This is sacred ground.
Come with courage. Come with tenderness.
Come prepared to lead others through the shadows, toward the possibility of restoration and greater wholeness.
