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 Shadowlands

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

  • 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.

A chair in a living room shows that the level three storywork training is in-person and embodied.

This is sacred ground. 

Come with courage. Come with tenderness.

Come prepared to lead others through the Shadowlands, toward the possibility of restoration and greater wholeness.
