What does it really mean to hold space for someone?
This one-day experiential workshop is designed for anyone who wants to show up more fully for others - and for themselves - with presence, compassion, and grounded care.
Whether you are a facilitator, healer, parent, friend, community member, or simply a human who wants to listen better, this workshop offers practical tools and embodied practices for holding space without fixing, advising, or bypassing.
Together, we’ll explore what it means to be with someone in a way that feels safe, supportive, and authentic, while also honoring your own boundaries and nervous system.
✨ What You’ll Learn & Experience
• What “holding space” means in a secular, spiritual, and human context
• Deep listening without fixing, rescuing, or problem-solving
• How to witness others without absorbing their emotions
• Boundaries and self-regulation for sustainable care
• Embodied practices that create safety and trust
• Simple tools you can use in daily life, work, and community
🌀 Workshop Flow
The day includes:
• Opening & closing circles
• Guided grounding and embodiment practices
• Small group sharing and paired listening
• Somatic awareness and presence tools
• Optional, consent-based practices (silence, breath, ritual elements)
• Reflection, journaling, and integration
You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of how to hold space and how to care for yourself while doing so.
💛 This Workshop Is For You If You:
• Want to listen more deeply without needing to fix
• Support others in emotional or transitional moments
• Are curious about embodied, relational skills
• Value presence, compassion, and integrity
• Want practical tools you can actually use
No prior experience is required. This is a welcoming, grounded space for learning, practice, and connection.
