Body-Informed Leadership, Counselling, and Facilitation for Cultural Transformation

…

Madelanne Rust-D’Eye, MA, R-DMT, RSME

I passionately believe in the transformational power of our body’s intelligence.

We each have the potential to develop a new way of relating to our body’s signals that will revolutionize our personal and group cultures. It is my commitment to teach and nurture this new potential in my Body-Informed Leadership programs, my Movement in Relationship groups, in the One-to-One counselling and mentorship I offer, as well as in my group facilitation and consulting for organisations, communities, and change-makers.

My approach is body-focused, practical and experiential. It is also scientifically-based, informed by the latest insights from neuroscience and embodied psychology, and my training as a Body-Based Psychotherapist (MA Somatic Counselling Psychology, Naropa University).

Body-Informed Leadership teaches that, in order to write a “New Story” based in interconnection, we must learn new ways of relating to our bodies. Our bodies are the place where the most ancient, forgotten stories of our cultures play out; stories which often involve separation, disconnection, and hierarchy.

Although we may yearn for genuine connection and ways of living and interacting with others that reflect our deepest values, many of us unconsciously embody disconnective patterns in our moment-by-moment ways of being.

Body-Informed Leadership supports us to change these patterns by teaching new ways to understand and relate to our body’s signals.

“Deep play is the ecstatic form of play. In its thrall, all the play elements are visible, but they’re taken to intense and transcendent heights.” – Diane Ackerman

Movement in Relationship groups are a place to practice and integrate Body-Informed Leadership skills in an experiential environment of “deep play.” Using supported exercises in movement and sound, they enable participants to contact the body-based dynamics at the root of how they show up in relationship, to experiment with new ways of being and expressing, to witness others and be witnessed, and to hold a kind-hearted, experiential inquiry into what it means to practice interconnection at the body-based level.
