Mentorship with Melissa
Melissa will be offering intimate meetings on a monthly basis for people who are incorporating the SomaSource tools of transformation in their work out in the world. Each session will offer a practical teaching from Melissa about how to bring this work into different settings. Additionally, abundant time will be available to the fielding of critical questions about how the work works. Bring your questions about anything, from ethics, to logistics, to tracking people, to tending to yourself. Your real life questions are likely relevant to all. Each session will be limited to 15 people on a first come, first serve basis. Participation is included in your monthly SomaSource contribution.
