Yiska Obadia – Touched by an Oracle

This hour of meditative self-care will walk participants through an experience that weaves together the insightful power of oracle cards and a special kind of comforting touch called *Havening. Workshop attendees will be guided through a self-reflective practice that culminates in the use of self-applied soothing touch to achieve a feeling of deep self-connection and inner calm. Not only will you experience something powerful in the moment but you will also takeaway a new practice for ongoing nervous system self-care at home.

*Havening is a psycho-sensory healing modality that can be used to down-regulate the nervous system by amplifying slow brain waves, in addition to other therapeutic effects. This group experience will use the self-havening form of this practice rather than the therapeutic form applied by a trained practitioner.

Yiska Obadia is a bodywork practitioner of over 30 years. She is also a doula, Havening practitioner, Comforting Touch for Birth educator, and co-creator of the Wisdom of Birth Oracle & Tarot deck (this will be the deck used for the card pulling portion of our group practice). Her home and office are in Port Ewen. www.yiskaobadia.com.
