Up & Down Workshop

Up & Down WorkshopIrene Lyon2018-03-27T21:30:00-07:00

Ready to start your nervous system apprenticeship

Let me show you the best way to get started …

LEARN MORE

 

This is my biggest social platform. My YouTube videos are deemed binge-worthy (be careful in there, you might learn a lot 😉 ) !

Here you’ll find short stories, micro-videos, and real-time updates of what I’m up to both in life and work. Come on over!

Keep up-to-date with new and past favourite articles and videos. Kind of like a good old fashion newspaper. A little bit of everything.

For snippets, quotes, and random musings.

A collection of audio chats, interviews, and some sample neurosensory exercises (my version of “meditation”).

 

Writing and more writing. If you like to read, head on over.

Get a weekly dose of nervous system love 💕

Every Monday you’ll get an email from us with new education, inspiration …plus time-sensitive updates so you never miss a beat!

Instagram post 2177899287818969414_48669087 Taking care of my movement and mind, and in a way in which these two essentials for life connect to the world and others, is a non-negotiable for me. . . UPDATE: At this exact moment I’m ‘landing’ back in my hometown of Vancouver, BC after being away for 40 days and 40 nights in Europe teaching @upanddownworkshop with @eliamrak ... my time away, for me, was biblical. The last time I was away this long was in 2008 when I returned to Oz to finish my Masters in Biomed Research, writing up my dissertation. This Euro trip had elements that were similar to that one in ‘08: breaking the routine and comforts of home, connecting with new people and familiar ones, getting to know your limits and boundaries, the art of science and the art of healing ... (plus the reality of little sleep 🤪)... AND sharing the important stuff that you want everyone to know about. SO, with that writ I do hope you take some time to learn about ALL that I teach and offer the world - it is not just education via my articles and vlogs on healing trauma and the nervous system health, and it is not only my online programs that help to regulate and rewire those deep patterns, it is also the in-person workshops that get you into your movement, your awareness, that push your comfort zones with others in a safe, fun, and trauma-informed (polyvagal-informed) way. These images are but a few of the highlights from our recent workshops in Brighton. If you’d like to see more of them and some video of our participants and Elia and I speaking about our workshop ‘lovechild’ head over to @upanddownworkshop and follow us there. AND, keep following me here, too ☺️. About 50% of our Up & Down participants are also members of my other nervous system healing programs so as Forest Gump might say about the love of his life, Jenny, “they go together like peas and carrots.” ❤️♥️. Check it ALL out. ALL of my work is intentional and connects. Your movement and mind and all the nervous systems that connect to them will thank you when you do. 🙏🙏. . . Scroll thru these pics and see the joy and focused attention on people’s faces 👉👉.

Instagram post 2175139934070274402_48669087 Yep. That’s me pretending to strangle someone’s neck. 😳Odd right? Well, not totally when one understands how trauma is trapped in the nervous and somatic systems. The mini-vlog linked up right now digs into what cathartic practices are and why just doing them alone is NOT enough. (AND YES - I’ve taught my clients how to annihilate and strangle people in their imaginations .... but it is to help the fight energy release [it is not for real] and it CANNOT be done without proper foundations, capacity, and safety, plus the person feeling 100% on board to express this level of life force protection energy). This is Jedi work and it takes time to build to this — but when we get here and can process this survival energy without hurting others or ourselves we are free and it is a beautiful thing 🌀.
Instagram post 2174858990469825267_48669087 In just over 20 days!! I'm going to be California bound to teach my final live workshop event of the year with Elia Mrak. If you haven't checked out our powerful collaboration that is The Up & Down Workshop (@upanddownworkshop ) please do as it is changing lives and re-teaching folks how to play again and find true joy through their bodies and their environment .. .all alongside others in a safe and supportive space. It is a workshop like no other and we’re excited to teach at the gorgeous @1440multiversity retreat center December 5-8. (This retreat center is just above Santa Cruz in a spot called Scotts Valley). . . This will be our final workshop of 2019 and it's a perfect opportunity to gift 🎁🎁 yourself the power of movement, connection, fun, and deep nervous system healing. If this sparks a little curiosity, head to our page here @upanddownworkshop and go to the link ⛓ on our profile and it'll direct you to 1440's site. . . 👉 Please Note: The pricing which starts at $299 USD per day, includes your accommodation, all meals (the food is amazing!), use of the facilities (there is an amazing infinity hot tub pool that is surrounded by redwood trees!!), and of course the workshop with us Thursday night Dec 5 through to lunchtime on Sunday Dec 8. Scroll through the images to see a little bit of the campus and its amenities 👉👉🌀🌀..
Instagram post 2174385382622623483_48669087 Beauty is there. Just look. And if you can’t see it just now, keep at it. It’ll surface. . (This was ‘just’ the wall outside of my hotel room last week: simple and stunning.)
Instagram post 2174260504980521888_48669087 Ok ok. So...this is me being a little poetic. Please know that there will always be the potential for future traumatic experiences to happen ... like today, for example, while walking down a very steep and slippery path with tons of wet leaves I slipped and fell on my side and arm. I’m 100% fine, and will definitely feel a little sore tomorrow (or, maybe O won’t 🤷🏻‍♀️). BUT, I know what to do so I can resolve the shock in my system (already did this a few hours ago) and my life force energy is alive and well due to all the work I’ve done on my system and relationships and so on. SO for those of you who are still living in survival stress (and chronic and mental illness) and are still seeking and wondering how the heck life will ever get better and easier and more joyful - it can and it will when the right work is done and there is laser-like intention on healing at the deepest level possible (which is this nervous system level). Join me on this journey. I got the goods so you can find this life force and heal for real. 🙌💥🔥. Check out my site and all the resources there: IreneLyon.Com.
