Are you ready to spend a year in a focused transformational program? Do you sense that it is time for you to embody a deep change in your life? If you feel the call of a new possibility, please continuing reading about the Whole-Life Transformation Training with Susan Kullman.

This yearlong training is for anyone who recognizes that they have tremendous potential to initiate a new life by deconstructing habitual patterns and unconscious belief systems that limit them, and develop new behavioral, emotional and perceptual capacities that will dramatically enrich every aspect of who you are. Whether you feel called to the possibility of deep and lasting change in your own life, or are in the position of coaching, consulting, or in any way guiding others to change theirs, this program might be the perfect growth opportunity for you.

Susan Kullman brings together principles of somatic awareness, emotional healing, and spiritual awakening in this comprehensive training of true self mastery. When you finish you will be a new version of yourself, living a better life, and you will have all the tools you need to maintain the advances you made.

The success of this program will be partially based on the unique individualized attention that you will receive and therefore the training is limited to 25 people. This intimate size will optimize the opportunity for you to work closely and personally with Susan throughout the year.

If you guide others in their growth process, you will gain new insights about how the mind, body and spirit can be worked with as an integrated whole to generate profound change. You will see the connections that allow advances in one dimension of a person to have dramatic effects on other aspects of who they are. In the end, you will learn to work with people more efficiently and effectively to generate real and lasting change.

The structure of this training consists of monthly 4-hour workshops, monthly 90-minute group coaching sessions, and twice monthly 60-minute somatic awareness practice sessions with Susan Kullman. This will be a deep dive into the transformative process with an exceptional guide. Please read the rest of the details on this page to see if this opportunity is calling to you.

A few words from Susan Kullman

I created Whole-Life Transformation Training because I wanted to build a space where we could practice tools and techniques that would cultivate authentic and fulfilling relationships, including the relationship we have with ourself, others, and life itself. When we develop the skills needed to express ourselves safely and authentically, we create a level of intimacy, freedom, and compassion that is truly life transforming. By developing our capacity to listen to another without feeling that we might lose ourselves in the process, or take what they are saying personally, we create the space for others to see themselves and be authentic with us. Fundamentally we will learn to let go of an approach to life that focuses on fixing relationships and discover how to allow the process of relating to move through us naturally.

I look forward to working with you.

Four Essential Tools of Whole-Life Transformation

This training is designed to lead to whole-life transformation because it involves work on the body, emotions, the mind, and the spirit. It is holistic by nature, because these four dimensions will reveal themselves to be different perspectives on the same life so that work accomplished in any one domain leads to an acceleration of change in the others. By working in all four of these domains simultaneously we are able to consciously leverage the attainments in any one of them to facilitate growth in the others. This is what whole-life transformation means. The goal of the program is to ignite a fully embodied transformation that leaves us feeling whole and complete as we move beyond enlightened understanding into the lived experience of awakening. To accomplish this four essential tools of transformation will be engaged throughout the year.

Somatic Awareness
We have all been born with an innate bodily intelligence and in this training you will learn how to activate and listen to it in ways that allow you to transform stress, pain, injury, disease, and trauma, and awaken to embodied joy. Part of this training will involve deep body-centered work, but not necessarily in the way you might think. You will engage in gentle and extremely precise movements that unlock underlying tensions and constrictions and deepen your connection with your True Self.
Emotional Healing
In this training you will explore your feelings and discover what they are telling you. As you change your relationship to your emotions you will find yourself making different choices and creating new habits. Your sense of self will change and you will learn how to manifest what you truly desire. In combination with somatic work this will unleash hidden potentials and allow you to become more fully yourself. Your fears, shame and guilt will dissolve and you will become a more fully integrated human being.
 
Spiritual Awakening
To live an awakened life we must liberate the life force energy within us to flow freely so that our lives are powered and guided by a profound source of vitality, wisdom and love. This life-giving energy is blocked in us by false ideas of limitation and energetic blocks in our bodies. In this training you will liberate yourself mentally and emotionally from the false ideas that bind your spirit, and release the physical tensions and constrictions that keep the wisdom and love of a higher source from flowing freely into our lives.
Self-Mastery

We’ve been conditioned to believe that our external reality creates our internal experience, however the fields of neuroscience, quantum physics and spirituality all reveal how our internal mental state shapes our external world. This means that we can create new possibilities for ourselves from the inside out. In this program you will learn how to identify and dissolve the obstacles that block your true creative potential and bring deeper coherence to your bodies and minds. When our thoughts and feelings align we will create the reality of our awakened life.

Susan Shares an Overview of the Program
Program Schedule
This program is divided into twelve transformative modules, each containing the following:
  • A 4-hour initial workshop that introduces all of the material to be worked with.
  • A 60-min practice/dialog session to reinforce the material from the workshop.
  • A 90-min group coaching session providing individual input to each participant.
  • A second 60-min practice/dialog session to reinforce the material from the module.

Module One:
Exploring Human Potential
Workshop: Saturday, June 17th, 2023 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the first module you begin the journey of true self-mastery by exploring the subtle ways that your thoughts create your reality. By identifying the limiting beliefs that stop you from creating the reality you truly desire and discovering the mechanisms that allow you to transcend them. This top-down mode of thinking is free of future oriented effort and leads to the discovery of the potentials that already lie within you waiting to be released. Included in the learning of this module will be the all-important distinction between core ego beliefs, transparent beliefs, and magical beliefs. Our work will focus on validating and dissolving any obstacles that hinder the fulfillment of your true purpose and learning to identify only with your higher self.

Module Two:
Fundamentals of Somatic Wisdom
Workshop: Saturday, July 15th, 2023 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the second module you will discover what it means to awaken somatic intelligence and open to the profound intelligence that always exists within and around you. You will ignite a paradigm shift in your awareness by letting go of the 'body as object' assumptions of our culture and embracing yourself as an integrative soma that is always in process. You will learn to think, perceive and move beyond the limits of the mechanistic 'fixing' model that has come to dominate modern thinking, and awaken to the dynamic fluidity of your whole being. In this module you will begin the crucial work of integrating your mind, body and nervous system, while learning to remain continuously aware and committed to whatever arises in the present moment.

Module Three:
Expanding Emotional Intelligence
Workshop: Saturday, August 12th, 2023 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the third module you will work with a second essential expansion of awareness - emotional intelligence. We’ve been conditioned to emphasize cognitive intelligence, but our full evolutionary potential cannot be unleashed with the intellect alone. Only when you also apply somatic awakening and emotional intelligence can you develop the sensitivity necessary to navigate the path of deep transformation. In this module you will learn to understand the wisdom behind your emotional states, and in particular how uncomfortable emotions offer profound opportunities to grow beyond the limiting structures of your psyche. As your emotional sensitivity grows you will find deep equanimity and discover how your feelings reveal false beliefs and ultimately illuminate your deepest desires. Far from being frightening, our emotions become powerful tools of integration.

Module Four:
Deepening Into The Somatic Process
Workshop: Saturday, September 9th, 2023 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the fourth module you will build directly on the work you did in module two and deepen your somatic sensitivity, understanding and practice. You will specifically focus on the area of the body that is known as the psoas muscle. According to Taoist philosophy the psoas muscle is a muscle with a soul that holds all of our cultural conditioning. Physically the psoas is the muscle that stabilizes the entire body, but you will learn that in addition to this crucial function it also acts as a messenger that can communicate the underlying issues of our soul to us. This may sound esoteric and mystical, but you will see that the communication of the psoas is very direct and accurate if you understand the sensory language it speaks. During this module you will also explore how to use biomorphic movements to dissolve the cultural patterns that have become embedded within your soma and return to the direct understanding of your senses.

Module Five:
Creating the Space for Transformation
Workshop: Saturday, October 7th, 2023 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the fifth module you will take a deep dive into the process of self-discovery. You will explore some important theories of child development and learn about how your identity was shaped in the early years of your life. You will explore your love identities and your fear identities so that you can become more precisely aware of how you have been conditioned to think, feel and act. By understanding the unconscious factors that have shaped you, you can validate aspects of yourself that you may have difficulty embracing, and learn to see them objectively, free from negative judgements. Your work in this module will allow you to discover how to relax and ultimately dissolve the defense mechanisms that you have developed, and increase your ability to shift perspectives with ease when circumstances call for reevaluation. This module will revolutionize the way you treat, listen to and take care of yourself.

Module Six:
Building Compassion and Vulnerability
Workshop: Saturday, November 4th, 2023 @ 11:00pm - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the sixth module you will expand on what you worked with in module three and deepen your emotional intelligence by exploring the processes through which you can integrate into wholeness. This involves releasing the emotional blocks that hinder the way to attaining your full human potential. You will discover that in order to dissolve obstacles you must give ourselves permission to have needs and desires. The fact that we do not have everything you need does not mean that we are not whole. In fact, your needs often illuminate your soul and the path to wholeness by showing us where there is opportunity for deeper integration. By learning how to listen to your feelings and identify the underlying needs that shape them, you will discover how to open yourself to the visceral sensitivity of emotional awareness. You will stop fearing the experience of pain and contraction because you will see how opening to those experiences is the doorway to transcendence.

Module Seven:
Returning to Your Inner Wildness
Workshop: Saturday, December 2nd, 2023 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the seventh module you will discover the power inherent in learning to listen and respond to the needs of your soma through movement and sound vibration. You will discover how the habitual patterns of the way you move shape your thinking, and when you learn to move differently your mind begin to operate differently as well. The work of this module involves stripping away layers of conditioned thought patterns through the skillful use of non-linear fluid micro movements and sound. You will explore gentle practices that disrupt your surface patterning, so you can see the deeper movements and primal gesturing of the animal body. This exploration restores the wisdom of your inner wildness that has been suppressed and hidden by your conditioning.

Module Eight:
Building Boundary Awareness and Trust
Workshop: Saturday, December 30th, 2023 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the eighth module you will create the foundational awareness that allows your transformative work to move into even deeper levels of your being. This work requires you to return home and build a profound trust in life. Only this depth of trust allows us to listen to our own deepest truth. To build this deep trust you must become masterful in your awareness and use of your sense of boundaries. Only with clear boundaries can you maintain the energy, integrity, and persistence you need for the journey of personal growth and self-transformation. In this module you will explore the multi-faceted and deeply layered nature of the boundaries that keep you safe. Within the safety of well established boundaries you will be able to give yourself permission to trust your instincts and the natural impulses.

Module Nine:
Embodying Forgiveness and Grief
Workshop: Saturday, January 27th, 2024 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the ninth module you will learn how to navigate through two experiences that are an inevitable part of life and the transformative journey, - forgiveness and grief. Life and transformation involve loss. Every new beginning is the end of something else. It is easy for you to become stuck in the negative feelings that often arise with loss. As you transform you sometimes see what was lacking in your previous self, or feel mournful at things you are leaving behind. In this module you will learn to fully forgive your past self, and move through the experience of grief into gratitude and ultimately joy. You will feel grateful for the person that we were, because they brought you to the verge of transformation. You will also see that the shedding of the old is a necessary part of birthing the new. Forgiveness allows you to dissolve the toxic energies of the past so they can’t contaminate the present and the future.

Module Ten:
Embodied Living in Relationship
Workshop: Saturday, February 24th, 2024 @ 11:00am - 3:00pm US Eastern Time.
In the tenth module you will explore the relational nature of life. You do not live alone, you live in relationship with yourself and with others A whole life transformation means transforming all of the relationships in your life. You will learn how to cultivate authentic and fulfilling relationships with romantic partners, family members, friends, co-workers and most importantly yourself. In this module you will practice the skills needed to express yourself safely and authentically. Vulnerable expression creates a depth of intimacy, freedom, and compassion that is truly life transforming. You will create the space that allows others to be authentic and see themselves clearly, and you will learn to stop trying to fix relationships and discover how to allow the process of relating to move freely and naturally through you.

Susan Kullman
Susan Kullman is a spiritual life coach, somatic educator, and yoga therapist and has successfully used the techniques and practices described in her book, Commit To What is, to help transform her own life as well as the lives of many clients and students. Her passion in teaching comes from decades of study in wellness practices, and her love and deep understanding of the body and its soul. For over 20 years , Susan has empowered students to a live a life of intentional health and wellness. A positive, energetic, life force, Susan uses her knowledge and experience to educate and inspire others. Her unparalleled ability to connect and motivate not only comes from her vast education but also compassionately fueled by her own personal journey towards wellness. Susan “walks her talk” with an emphasis on empowerment, evolution, and integration. The cognitive work of spiritual practices like meditation is not always enough to unleash the full flowering of our awakened potential. Sometimes we also need to work through emotional and physical constrictions to clear our path to higher awareness. This is the nature of the work you will do with Susan Kullman. Susan has an extensive background in a wide range of practices that open our bodies and restore our physical, emotional and psychical balance. Working with Susan will open your body, your heart, and your mind, to the energetic life force that animates you and all of existence. The work Susan does is body-centered, but not necessarily in the way you might typically think. The Greek word 'somatics' can translate as bodywork, but it is not limited to the physical manipulation of the body. Somatics means exploring and reorienting to the inner experience of being embodied. w: intentionalwellnessandyogacenter.com
