Held (Meditation and Intention using Transforming Touch®)

As we step into the second half of the month of Teves, I’d like to invite you to join this month’s Held series of three Transforming Touch® (TEB) group healing sessions on Zoom.

Each month, we connect to the unique energy of the calendar through the lens of the shevatim. Teves is connected to Shevet Dan, who teaches us the profound skill of gathering in what has been dropped.

In our lives, emotions often get “dropped”—left unacknowledged, suppressed, or expressed in ways that feel unaligned. One emotion we particularly struggle with is anger. Many of us run from it, pushing it down or letting it spill over onto others.

Dan reminds us that emotions don’t need to be feared or avoided. By staying present with them and allowing them to simply be, we can trust that they will shift. Anger, when met with compassion and awareness, becomes a power that fuels meaningful action in our lives.

Through these sessions, we’ll explore how to bring this presence into our own emotional experiences, using somatic practices to feel held and supported as we navigate this transformative work.

Each session includes:

A unique theme based on the weekly energies of Teves and Shevet Dan
Grounding and setting intentions for the session
Journaling using both dominant and non-dominant hands to access deeper layers of self
A guided Transforming Touch® protocol to create somatic safety and reconnect with your inner self
An integration practice to help you carry the work into your daily life

Testimonials:

Being in the Held group was a beautiful experience. I felt your permission to come as I am, with whichever parts needed to be seen or heard. All of me was invited in your matter of fact open energy! 
The group offered me the opportunity to practice a new way of being. Not having to people please, or show up as my professional self. Not having to fill any specific role. Just be me. And for that I am so grateful. 
I noticed more regulation after the TEB –  my digestion regulated and an overall sense of I am ok filled my heart. 
Thank you Rena for creating this space and inviting me in! 
These sessions were extremely calming to my body, mind and soul. 
The held series helped me connect with myself and recover from triggers faster. I’m finding myself having more awareness and better control when I get angry. Thank you so much for gifting me with this amazing experience! Your calmness amidst the chaos in Israel is a true inspiration and helped my body to be grounded. Toda Raba! May Hashem watch over you and all Klal Yisroel.
What I’ve gained from your classes:
– a haven of calm that you’ve expertly crafted amidst a stormy world
– you give space for what is, and allow it to be heard (internally to ourselves, or shared aloud within the group), without needing to fix or change ourselves, just to sit with it and validate and accept, brings a level of menuchas hanefesh by being with it 
– continuing to build my growing capacity for self compassion, and when meeting up with self criticism I’m more able to see it for what it is, sometimes even at a bit of a distance – while it feels so convincing, I know it’s not the ultimate truth, like “oh I’m feeling very judgmental right now” as opposed to “I’m so ___”
