Vivation consists of Five Elements, or component skills
necessary
to create deliberate happiness in your life. These elements are
Circular Breathing, Complete Relaxation, Awareness in Detail,
Integration into Ecstasy and Do Whatever You Do, Willingness is Enough.
With skillful practice these elements empower you to permanently and
pleasurably heal any negative emotions keeping you from enjoying your life more
fully. All these elements work together towards maximizing your enjoyment of the
total human experience of life. Vivation works directly at the feeling
level and puts you directly in touch with the pleasurable feelings that empower
you to heal yourself on many levels. This makes it easier for you to let go of
chronic tensions and life-long holding patterns that up until now have been
stuck. By connecting
directly with the physical feelings in your body,
any negative thoughts you
have about those feelings are bypassed, resulting in a much more honest and
pleasurable experience. That 's because all of your feelings, when experienced
honestly, are actually good. For example, the emotional pattern of energy we call "sadness" is actually a feeling of gratitude when
experienced honestly. The same is true for all "negative"
emotions. What makes Vivation particularly powerful is
you don't have to change or control your thoughts for it to
work. Vivation has no mental component, so Vivation works perfectly
regardless of what you happen to be doing or thinking. Vivation is a bodily led
experience which will consistently lead you on a
journey of deep healing and personal renewal. We call this body leadership, because you are allowing
your body's wisdom to guide you from one moment to the next.. You could say Vivation is like getting a massage
from the inside out. For more information on how Vivation works and what
the Five Elements are, go here.
What is a Vivation session like?
Each session begins with an hour of instruction followed by
an hour of coached Vivation session. In each session you are carefully
guided through a unique experience in
healing and bliss with the goal of achieving your own autonomy with the
skill. Vivation accomplishes this by bringing you directly in touch with
your body, which is the only thing truly present. Want to be experience the
"power of now"? Then notice what you are feeling in your body.
Your body is the gateway to the present moment. During a Vivation session you are continually opening to experiencing
and enjoying the strongest feelings in your body each moment as they unfold. A good Vivation session brings you the gift
of the present moment through an ongoing surprise of blissful
feelings and aliveness that keeps on giving in ways you never
thought possible or could have imagined.
Can I do Vivation anywhere?
Yes, once you've learned Vivation you can use it anytime and
anywhere you want. Vivation is
very portable - that's the power of it. You can vive while you're driving, walking, working,
playing, anything you can imagine. We call this Vivation-in-Action,
and it is one of the most important things you learn during your Vivation
training.
Is Vivation meditation?
Yes, however Vivation is far easier and more powerful
than any type of meditation any you are likely to encounter. With most forms
of meditation you are asked to “quiet the mind”. With Vivation there is no
such requirement. Instead you pay attention to the strongest feeling in
the body, regardless of what’s going on in the mind. The only thing
accomplished when attempting to quiet the mind is suppressing the very
thoughts and feelings you want to integrate. Second, most forms
of meditation require undisturbed locations, without noises or
distractions. Vivation is very efficient at helping you integrate
all of your emotional experiences, so it doesn't matter where you
are. You can do it while walking, driving, playing,
working, and anywhere else you can imagine. It doesn't matter
where you are or what you
are doing, Vivation is an internal skill
you can use all the time. We call this Vivation-in-Action,
and it is one of the most empowering things you could ever
learn. Quite
simply, Vivation is about maximizing your enjoyment of the total human experience
of life in all areas. For those familiar with yoga,
Vivation-in-Action embodies the practices of both Bhakti and Karma yoga.
Is Vivation breathwork?
Vivation
consists of five important elements for expanding joy, happiness and
wellbeing, of which breathwork is just one of them.
Is Vivation therapy?
Vivation is very therapeutic but not therapy,
because it's something you do for yourself rather than having it done
for you.
Is Vivation safe?
Vivation has been proven safe and effective by over 100,000 clients worldwide.
Can I learn Vivation on my own?
Vivation is very effective at bringing up suppressed material that
you haven’t been able to integrate. Having a Vivation Professional there to nurture and guide you
through this profound experience of self-discovery is essential. Until you are competently shown how to
pleasurably and efficiently resolve the wide range of emotional and kinesthetic experiences that
come up during Vivation, you won’t have the knowledge that
such a things is even possible. In all our years of training
independent minded people
form around the world, we have yet to meet a single person who
has been able successfully master Vivation without a teacher’s guided assistance.
It is the same as learning how to fly a plane or sail a boat…such guidance is
crucial and priceless. Besides, our entire goal is to teach you
how to do this on your own.
How long does it take to learn Vivation?
Vivation is a very efficient process at resolving
suppressed negative emotions, so it takes considerably less time to
master than similar methods. Vivation can be learned in as little as three
or four days, assuming all the necessary lessons and sessions
(about 7-10) are done back-to-back. The reason is that each
lesson builds on the next until you have enough efficiency to do it
on your own. After 30 years this has proven to be the single most
effective way to learn Vivation. If too much time passes between
lessons, previous sessions are not fresh enough to provide the
necessary impetus for further improvements in efficiency. The 7
Basic Lessons was designed to teach all the elements of Vivation
back to back to allow the full spectrum of emotions to surface and
integrate in an efficient and pleasurable manner. Once you’ve
been able to heal every type of negative emotion in this way, you
realize everything integrates and there is no such thing as an
emotion that can’t be resolved. To see your options for learning
