Emotional Body® courses are designed to provide you with the ability to sense, reconnect with, and physically regulate emotions. Using research-supported methods, Emotional Body instructors use gentle and gradually developed somatic sensing lessons to help you learn emotional fluency and physical emotion regulation methods. Courses are beneficial for personal and professional development purposes.
There are several ways to learn the Emotional Body method. One of our most common approaches used for over twenty years has been our signature full courses and workshops, provided either in person or online, utilizing between 24-30 contact hours. These comprehensive trainings provide you with detailed instruction and application on all six (6) of the emotional effector patterns, their embodiment and potential for application. The full courses also include various restorative practices and methods for obtaining neutral, calm and balanced states.
The Emotional Body company now offers several other options for our audiences to learn more about the method.
Our website offers new online on-demand courses focused on specific themes, like the new Reclaim Your Calm course, and the Smile for the Camera course. Both courses apply emotional effector pattern techniques for specific purposes described in these online courses and give our audiences the opportunity to gain valuable skills in physical self regulation of emotion within these contexts.
We also have a New Substack Page produced by Pure Expression, with short 10-20 minute lesson recordings, articles, audio recordings from The Emotional Body book text (found nowhere else), and more! This substack page is a highly accessible and affordable option for audience members who wish to learn more about the method and try some of the lessons in short lesson segments and with learn-on-your-own-time accessability. To acknowledge those who have endured natural disasters over the last year, we are offering 30% off the Paid subscription price (either monthly or annual) if you use this link: https://pureexpressions.substack.com/a119516c (Offer expires by the end of December 2025.) Also, when you visit our new Emotional Body Substack page to learn more ways to apply the Emotional Body® method, if you become a Paid or Founding subscriber you will immediately receive a coupon fo either a significantly reduced price or (for Founding members) free acess to our new Reclaim Your Calm course for a year!
"The Emotional Body introductory course was a wonderful experience that exceeded my highest expectations for deep personal learning; challenging, nurturing and fulfilling. The personable and engaging leaders followed a learning pace that flowed smoothly, making the new ideas come to life in a way that makes them feel familiar and integral to myself. The Emotional Body is positively brilliant and useful in so many ways! I use it every day, am grateful, and looking forward to more opportunities to explore, understand and grow." ~ Mark Lichtenberger (Asheville Training, 2019)
Emotional Body courses have a distinct instructional style that includes: (1) a new language of emotional effector pattern labeling, (2) low intensity lessons when introducing the emotion patterns, (3) and somatic sensing lessons. The courses also include our signature text, The Emotional Body, which includes lessons on recent emotion research, emotional fluency and literacy, and physical and vocal expression development. Emotional Body instructors have a clear understanding of the distinctions between, and philosophies behind, the various instructional methods used in their courses, and they clearly identify them in their practice.
