(01453) 886866, 07768 973167, www.clairebeeley.co.uk W hy do people want to go on this 18 month training? There are, of course, many reasons why people sign on to intimacy coach and relationship expert, Jan Day's training course. But the most common ones are that the participants (from writers to yoga teachers, from business people to lawyers) have done some personal growth work and are keen to deepen their self-awareness including their sexual selves, or that they are already alternative practitioners who want to take this new knowledge into their own areas of therapy and healing. “It's a great opportunity to come together as a group for a considerable length of time, which enables profound trust and therefore deeper processing,” says Jan, who trained with Alan Lowen, the founder of The Art Of Being. She has been teaching for over fifteen years, lived on Maui for seven years, runs workshops at Skyros, Cortijo Romero and soon at both Alternatives at St James and the 2012 Mind Body Spirit Festival. “The course consists of Living Tantra 1, (which is What did you get from your training? Valerie says: “After the training, my self-esteem went right up as well as my self-understanding and self-love. In 18 months, I managed to heal most of my childhood traumas (dad and both grandparents were alcoholics, mum was emotionally absent), learn how to speak up for myself, have more empa- thy, love and understanding for others.” What are the advantages of being in a group for this length of time? Jan explains: “You get to be seen over and over again by the group which really helps with you being able to see and become clear about your patterns of behaviour as in what helps you and what doesn't.” Jan Day's next Living Tantra training starts in June 2012. Living Tantra 1 takes place from 5-12 April 2012 at the EarthSpirit centre, Somerset. It is a pre-requisite for the training course. Do ring and have a chat with Jan on 02081239831.
