COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

Basic Chakra Weekend(15 hours)
This is an introduction to the Chakra System for those unfamiliar with it. This course may be waived by those who have already taken longer trainings, or who can prove competency. It is required for those who wish to become a Chakra Instructor, as they may find themselves teaching this course later on.
Psychology of the Chakras or Chakra Intensive  (45-50 hours)
This workshop combines yoga, bioenergetics, psychotherapy, trancework, movement, ritual, partner dialogs, lecture, and other chakra related experiences. It is in-depth and transformational. This course may be offered in the form of a single week (7-9 days), a 9-month experience, or three 3-day weekends.
From Dream to Reality: Manifesting Through the Chakras (35-40 hours)
The top-down manifesting current, though often ignored, balances the bottom-up liberating current. Manifestation is the process of bringing your dreams into reality. It is a practical step-by-step procedure of moving down through the chakras from the realm of thought into physical form. Eliminate negative beliefs, form your vision, communicate it, bring it into relationship, empower it, move it with passion, and bring it into completion. (Pre-requisite -- learning the chakras from the ground up.)
Energy Awareness (15-20 hours)
Designed to open awareness to the subtle energy body, of which the chakras are an integral part, this workshop focuses on deepening attunement through guided meditation and other techniques for learning psychic self-protection. This workshop includes experiential exercises for opening the heart center, developing boundaries and sensing subtle energy as well as simple chakra scanning and energy clearing, and opportunities to practice remaining centered and psychically protected while working with others.
Independent project
This is the creation of an original contribution to the body of work pertaining to one's specializaiton.  It could be something the student can do with a group, a research project, a tool, technique, art or music, that demonstrates proficiency and original thinking with the chakra system. 

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS
BASED ON SPECIALIZATIONS

These workshops are open to all students but are required for the specializations indicated.

Chakra Instruction Specialization:

Advanced Chakra Yoga (40 hours)
This course teaches you how to incorporate the seven chakras into your yoga classes. We will investigate the theory, philosophy and psychology of the chakras and explore the energy anatomy and physiology of each chakra and how they relate to physical imbalances and life patterns. We will practice a set of yoga postures that opens and balances each chakra, as well as release old tensions and limiting beliefs through holding postures. We will do breathing, chanting, visualization, affirmation and meditation. Finally students will design a chakra yoga class and practice teaching with a small group. This program has an intensive schedule and includes early morning, afternoon, and evening sessions along with daily chakra assignments and reflections.

Guiding the Journey (35 hours)
Movement and trance are powerful tools for awakening self-awareness and opening ourselves and others to wider perspectives and profound potential for change. Working within a ritual context, we will create an intensive community within which we can enter a relational field that encourages personal and professional growth. This workshop provides a basic framework for creating sacred space and guides participants in the use of trance, ritual, and movement to work more deeply with students and clients in a contained and safe way. A balance between inner work and interactive experience will provide opportunities for participants to deepen their own process while they practice using these tools for themselves and their students and clients.

Chakra Therapy Specialization:

Techniques of Mind-Body Therapy (30 hours)
This course is required for Chakra Therapy certification and strongly suggested for the Chakra Instruction track. It covers the basic principles of mind-body therapy, such as character structure, charging and discharging, working with trauma, tracking subtle energy, and practical techniques to use in clinical settings.

In The Realm of the Sacred (35 hours)
This workshop takes the spiral path from the outer chakras into the heart. It is only for advanced students in chakra psychology who want to practice the skills they have learned by working on each other in a supervised setting. Deep sessions occur within the group, supported by Anodea and other group members, as you learn to use chakra and body-based skills in doing complete therapy sessions. Feedback and support are given for your process as both therapist and client, with an overarching ritual context that brings it all into the realm of the sacred.

Clinical Case Seminar (15 hours)
Clinical case seminar with other psychotherapists using this material. Students bring in actual cases from their practice for discussion. A write-up of three cases analyzed from a chakra perspective is also required for completion.

Bodywork Specialization:

Techniques of Mind-Body Therapy (30 hours)
This course is required for Chakra Therapy certification and strongly suggested for the Chakra Instruction track. It covers the basic principles of mind-body therapy, such as character structure, charging and discharging, working with trauma, tracking subtle energy, and practical techniques to use in clinical settings.

Chakra Bodywork Training (15 hours)
The focus of this workshop is chakra based bodywork. The techniques include a combination of energy work, physical bodywork techniques, yoga, breathwork, energetic body reading and a working knowledge of the chakra system. Students will learn how to integrate these techniques to balance, release and energize the chakras within the scope of a bodywork practice. In addition, these techniques will be applied to specific case studies within the class. A strong knowledge of anatomy is essential, as well as prior experience with energy work and other bodywork applications. This workshop builds on one's previous bodywork training. 

Bodywork Clinical Case Seminar (15 hours)
Clinical case seminar with other bodyworkers using this material. Students bring in actual cases from their practice, for discussion. A write-up of three cases analyzed from a chakra perspective is also required for completion. (We will do a minimum of 2 cases in the class)
