Scientific research and clinical experience show that psychosomatic symptoms and problems with tension, but also chronic pain or psychological suffering can only be understood from a holistic, person centered perspective.
The successful treatment presupposes an integration of both bodytherapeutic and psychotherapeutic processes and techniques that fit with the context and the story of the patient. Deep Holistic Bodywork offers this integration and posesses powerful tools for penetrating the seemingly difficult body.
Deep Holistic Bodywork is teaches how to bring body awareness skills into everyday awareness and decision making. Through personal experiences it teaches body-awareness and self-awareness skills, and improves personal and social competence and communication skills. Deep Bodywork also helps to integrate old experiences, and – when appropriate – to let them go, and to bring the lessons learned from old experiences into the present. Through a process of exploring personal attitudes, postures, emotions and behaviours developed over a lifetime, it allows the transformation of those patterns. Deep Bodywork, includes Energetic Integration and Postural Integration®, innovative developments, originated by Dr. Jack W. Painter, who synthesises this work from Wilhelm Reich’s Vegetotherapy, Fritz Perls’ Gestalt process work, Ida Rolf’s Structural Integration, 5-elements work, body and movement awareness, and this all in the light of modern scientific research in attachment and brain development processes.
Introductory Workshop Bodymind Integration 9>10 February 2019
Introductory workshop⎮Postural Integration® ⎮ Energetic Integration®⎮9-10 February 2019
With Dirk Marivoet, MSc.
Trainer/Supervisor for Postural Integration®, Energetic Integration® and Pelvic-Heart Integration® – Teacher/Supervisor for Core-Energetics®
THE WEEKEND
During the weekend you will be introduced to the Postural and Energetic Integration® Therapy Model. During these two days we work with a synthesis of Reichian Breathwork, Gestalt, Body Reading, connective tissue work, bodymind drama and character analysis. Participants will have the opportunity to experience this work – focussing on “Posture” (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual) and on “Energy Economy” – in a safe and inviting environment under the guidance of an experienced teacher and supervisor. This is an opportunity for personal work and development in a group context. Given the integrative discipline-transcending character, this workshop is open to interested students and professional therapists. Bring especially your curiosity, your willingness, and your desire to move with you so that you can experience your body, feelings and emotions. For people who are interested in following the professional training in 2020, this Workshop gives you a sense whether to train yourself in this modality. The contents and working methods that are provided in the training are adequately covered.
What is Postural Integration®?
Postural Integration® is an approach that supports a growth process of the whole person, based on his posture. Your posture tells a lot about who you are. By profoundly liberating the myofascial tensions in your body in combination with simultaneous work with breath, movement, energy and the interpersonal relationship, the different body areas can be made aware individually and in relation to each other and the surrounding environment. Unprocessed and unconscious – possibly traumatic – experiences from your personal history can thus be integrated. Energetic Integration® works with the model of Jack Painter’s Energetic Cycle to improve “Energy Economy” and transforming stress, fatigue and blocked energy into flow and pleasure.
You can experience in this workshop the many ways in which you yourself prevent yourself from living deeply and fulfillingly. By learning to move the blocked energy and the associated emotions in a targeted way and to bring them into interaction, you come into a positive lifestream. You will find out how your body and your feelings are an important guideline for change in your life.
You will experience how in this process your entire body begins to change visibly and tangibly. In the work we do, we integrate Reichian insights and practices, Gestalt work, Acupressure (based on 5-elements theory), Bodymind Drama (Embodied role playing, Triangle work (Child, Father, Mother, Ancestors, other placeholders), etc.
People who have experienced this work firsthand, tell us that they become livelier, more powerful, joyful, courageous …. Postural and Energetic Integration® are creative, dynamic and ultimately enjoyable ways to fully experience the creativity, dynamism and joy of your own life force.

Pelvic-Heart Integration Workshop Brussels 22>25 June 2017
Living the Mystery
of the
Masculine and Feminine
Pelvic-Heart Integration® (PHI) in Brussels : 22 > 25 June 2017!
Beyond Attraction-Rejection, Happiness-Frustration,
Joy- Heartbreak
International Workshop guided by Dirk Marivoet (B) and Elisabeth Renner (A), Licensed Psychotherapists and International Trainers and Supervisors for PHI.
We often resign ourselves to repeating cycles of being attracted to and then rejected by the opposite sex. This pattern of finding short lived happiness and joy often leads to plunging back into unforeseen frustration and heartbreak. We can become intrigued and overwhelmed by the mystery of the opposite sex. Yet, when we really feel both the masculine and feminine already inside of us and then letting these parts of us interact with each other, we can find our way to sustainable excitement, deep love and even ecstasy. Our sexuality then comes from the wonderful mystery within us and guides us in our relationship with others.
In this workshop we will discover how our characteristic breathing patterns, thoughts, emotions, and body armour block the free flow of our life force and inhibit our capacity for sensual pleasure and orgasmic release. We use breath, movement and mindful touch to feel the unity of love and satisfaction. Psychodrama, imagery and role plays are helping us to explore the sexual and heart energy from our ancestors and our inner triangle (father, mother, child) which becomes a template for future relationships. 
Experiencing the spiritual presence of our ancestors is powerful and helps us to heal old wounds carried through generations. Pelvic-Heart Integration is helpful and supportive in creating a new wave of consciousness in all of us.
Pelvic-Heart Integration explores together with you the unconscious emotional body armor and breathing patterns, as well as habitual protection and defense patterns, that were learned in the Triangle Mother/Father/Child that determine your relationships in the here and now. Role playing, Imagination, Body Talk, „Hands-on” techniques, expression and movement, as well as exchanges in the group, accompany you in this process. Work with our ancestors and their spiritual force support you in bringing old, passed on wounds though generations, to a healing movement. New pulsating vibrancy and creativity begin to flow and to create a new source of Bodymind Consciousness.
