Within the basic four colour energies are contained two sets of opposites.
Underlying each pair of opposites there is a TENSION.
This tension acts like a force, just like gravity. You cannot see it, you cannot hear it or touch it with your hands. You will, however, experience the impact of the tension.
We each make a choice in how we perceive this tension. We can choose to be proactive and use this tension to create win/win outcomes. We can choose to be reactive and disconnect from the energy viewing it as a negative.
The choice we make determines our results.
It is important to remember, we make our own choice. The person who represents your opposite energy is not responsible for your choice.
When you’re proactive in engaging with this tension you achieve successful dynamics. Become reactive with this tension and you will experience dysfunctional dynamics.

The Opposite Colour Energies
Blue & Yellow are Opposite Colours
The tension between Blue energy & Yellow energy is based around IDEAS and PROCESSES.
Red & Green are Opposite Colours
The tension between Red energy & Green energy is based around TASKS and PEOPLE.

Fundamentals and Classics
Every Weds 6.30-7.30pm (UK time) from 26 Sept - 12 Dec (no class 17 Oct)
This autumn, we will be going back to exploring fundamental functions and relationships within our selves and our movement through the Feldenkrais Method, encountering classic lessons and discovering new ways to understand ourselves in action.
Each week we will encounter a different function or aspect that is key to our sense of being able to move with ease and freedom through our lives. For instance, we will explore our ability to turn through our spine, to round, extend or bend, as well as enlarging our repertoire of possibilities - looking to move with pleasure and reversibility. 
The first few lessons will explore Fundamental Functions. There will be an early 'half-term' the week of 17th Oct, and then the following weeks we will move through a series of outstanding Classic lessons, that will be useful to return to for yourself.
Audio recordings of each class are available afterwards, so you don't have to attend the class in person, if you can't make that evening.

Chynna Clayton Bio
Keynote Speaker
 

Empathetic, strategic, and meticulous about the details, Chynna Clayton has built a career enabling some of the world’s most influential leaders to excel in high-stress environments.
Chynna is the founder and CEO of Matriarch Made Development, a consulting firm that helps organizations develop high performing administrative teams and identify and address overall operating structure
and events logistics inefficiencies. From helping leaders figure out their onboarding, communication flow, event logistics and how to further develop the talents of their teams, Chynna supports leading organizations in creating a systematic approach to tackling business/events challenges and bottlenecks.
Prior to Matriarch Made, Chynna worked in the personal office of Barack and Michelle Obama as their Director of Travel and Event Operations. Her career also includes administrative roles at Disney and the White House where she served as “body woman” to Mrs. Obama during the Obama Administration.

Chynna was featured in Michelle Obama’s latest book, The Light We Carry

“She could adapt in all types of environments, remain­ing unflappable in the face of change. On any given day, I might go from having a conversation with a group of students at a school to filming a television show or recording a podcast. I could meet with a world leader or the head of a philanthropic organization and then have dinner with A-list celebrities. It was Chynna facilitating every move.”

The psychological impact of critical incidents includes anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance and agitation. It can also lead to reduced motivation or morale at work, unsafe practices, and burnout.
Health and social care professionals in hospitals, residential care, and support services, who are looking after vulnerable people in challenging environments, are often exposed to distressing events. 

Critical Incident Stress Debriefings (CISDs) are brief and effective interventions. They mitigate the impact of incidents and help promote resilience and well-being. 
CISD is a facilitated, time-limited group session intended to support participants with the emotional/psychological impact of an adverse event.
The debrief is a structured group conversation about the facts, feelings, and thoughts related to the incident. A trained and competent facilitator helps the group support each other and process their reactions. 
This training is for managers, nurses, key workers, mental health professionals, counsellors/psychotherapists, or any person in charge of staff well-being in their organization. 
This excellent 2-day online training will cover theory and practice, including lectures, videos, and small-group work. When you complete the training you will be able to facilitate CISDs.
