Speak from your Heart
Find your inner Voice and Self-Expression
This module is part of a 3-module training with Ailon
Each module can be joined as a stand-alone workshop
“The whole of life is a great cosmic joke-not a serious phenomenon.
That is why we call existence Leela- a divine play.
Take it seriously and you will miss. Laughter is the highest peak of growth and it is through laughter that you will find God. ”
Osho
What if the spiritual path didn’t need to be serious all the time?
What if playfulness and creative self-expression could become the door to your self-knowledge?
A creative, mindful and embodied voyage that delivers self-awareness and transformation while also being an enormous amount of fun.
Our philosophy is simple- laughter and celebration are just as essential on the journey of transformation as decades of meditation and years of analysis. Playfulness can be a method of liberation and clowning is a gateway into deep emotional healing.
The vision and the practice is firmly rooted in the teachings of Osho who pinpointed the disease of seriousness as an ailment of the soul. His remedy? Celebration, playfulness,laughter and joy as essential aspects of spiritual practice.
This workshop will hold a maximum of 12 people so that a deeper inner process can take place.
Module 2:
Speak from your Heart
Find your inner voice and self-expression
April 25-27
In the Speak from your Heart workshop we will begin our journey into vulnerability and authenticity by looking at the fears and blocks that we have around ‘being seen.’
Many of us carry a deep and profound fear of expressing ourselves in public, but together, we will create a safe space where each individual can discover how to gently melt and unfreeze the fear inside their system. Rather than trying to get rid of this fear, our approach is one of accepting and integrating it.
Once the melting has begun we start to look at how we can help our energy flow into self-expression and what the inner pathways might be for us to share our radiance, wonder and silliness with the world around us. This will involve a combination of playful, theatrical and mindful exercises that will support us to most lovingly ‘be who we are.’
During this workshop you will:
✔ Learn how to relax and melt the fear of public speaking and being seen through a soft and accepting approach.
✔ Tap into your innate gifts, talents and skills and learn to be yourself even when others are looking at you.
✔ Find a pathway for dissolving your fears of criticism and failure by learning to open your heart and blend humour and playfulness with sensitivity and vulnerability
✔ Discover that sharing yourself in front of others is a powerful journey of self-discovery and wholeness that can guide you to become the most relaxed, easy and natural version of yourself.
✔ Learn to share the uniquely weird and wonderful version of yourself that you can be with your best friends but not yet in public!
✔ Bring forward the charisma or confidence that you secretly know lies within.
What are the benefits…
✔️ Loosen the grip of adult seriousness
✔️ Reconnect to your inner child and it’s qualities of playfulness, happiness, silliness and freedom
✔️ Experience the blessing of being seen and witnessed by others without having ‘to do’ anything special
✔️ Learn to fail, make mistakes, and celebrate your stupidity
✔️ Deepen your emotional intelligence. Feel and understand your emotions in an embodied way and develop emotional flexibility
✔️ Experience states of wonder, innocence, and surrender by accessing the clown archetype
✔️ Make increasing contact with your golden lifeline- your sense of humour
Your facilitator
He has brought many of these elements together in his comedic performances as well as his Clown Healing, Speak from your Heart and Free your Inner Artist trainings. Ailon’s mission is to help people discover their sense of freedom, wellness and wholeness through creativity, celebration and fun. The School of Playfulness is the home for this endeavour
“Thank you for bringing into fruition a space which is so playful and nourishing to the soul. To have all our parts come up and be met, not only with with encouragement but with love is so rare in this world.”
“This training certainly reaches the parts other trainings have not. I am grateful for your facilitation and your earned, lived wisdom. I learned so much about opening my heart and I’m now seeking to communicate from that place as often as I can.”
“It’s been a pleasure seeing everyone expand and grow along the journey into a deeper expression of themselves. It’s been the first place in a long time where I felt safe and accepted to just be myself and explore parts of myself no matter how crazy, silly and unexpected.”
“The course was challenging, safe and completely engaging. It gently took me to places I need to go but resist visiting. Ailon skilfully shared his personal journey, his considerable skills, his deep knowledge and experience in a masterful way that respected our shared humanity and the personal state and experience of each of us. We were shared into his knowledge rather than ‘taught at’. Highly recommended.”
“The combination of archetypal work, experiential learning, playfulness and support of a group was beautifully crafted by Ailon. His uniquely structured approach to embodying ourselves is transformational and truly special. Snap up a ticket, I highly recommend this work and will be back for more.”
“I lost three things from your Clown Healing workshop- a stiff body, a numb heart and a disease called seriousness”
“Clown Healing is the most fun you can have while working on your shit.”
“Ailon creates such a safe and humorous space for people to explore their inner joker and let go of their inhibitions. I was so supported and have since felt so much more free, playful and in touch with my emotions.”
