Course Description

The Inner Knowing Course (IK) is designed to awaken your aliveness, hope and passion. IK is an intense self-awareness weekend.

Are you ready for a breakthrough to the next level living?

This course creates a spontaneous, safe environment allowing us to genuinely try on new ways of being or new experiences of the self for the purpose of moving towards the "true self"; the one that values contribution, connection, and love above all.

The Inner Knowing Course provides an individualized experience. With a maximum of 18 students, each student has the opportunity to truly and deeply investigate their history and their future in an intense, caring, and awe-filled journey.

The IK Course assists seekers to understand the depths of what lives in the unconscious (both personally and collectively). And from this place of understanding - build towards a life of creativity, contribution and love.

More than we know, our lives are dictated by lineage and childhood patterning (ways of surviving). This patterning is like a code that travels with us - beneath our level of conscious, day to day living. Apolonia guides students to see this sub-conscious code and how it operates in our lives. IK teaches us how being present and aware gives us the ability to unwind the knots of our unconscious programming.

All of the movements/exercises - including gestalts, breathwork, NLP, meditation, dance, and kinesiology - are designed by Apolonia to guide students towards opening the self towards more congruency - moving with hope - beyond the lineage patterns we all carry towards a future of fulfillment.

The experience of the course is liberation for many, because it demonstrates that nourishing ourselves deeply can change our realties. And then the excitement and passion for living and knowing deeply our true selves may be embraced fully.

The Inner Knowing course is not about fixing issues in life. It is about unlocking and rebirth. It is always the view of Apolonia and CIK that at the level of the "issue" there are no solutions that go beyond a temporary retraining of the personality/ego structure. Instead, the IK course seeks to change the original structures (learned in childhood) and move unconscious blocks (with deep realness in our emotions). And in the new openings created - encourage the expression of the deeper more connected self with compassion, believing and love.

When we have the space and courage to re-vision ourselves outside of how we may have known ourselves - we transform with gratitude.
