Wheel of Consent® Workshops with Helena De Felice

“This is an incredibly subtle and profound practice. We're deepening truly foundational skills. I experience so much resonance and complement to the work that I do. It has been immediately applicable in my practice” ~ Somatic Experiencing Therapist

“It's truly transformational work and so necessary for the healing and growth we are in desperate need of." ~ Acupucturist

“This practice has completely changed how I related to others. I'm more loving, kind, respectful of myself and others. Being more trusting of myself. Less co-dependent. Less potential for burnout. List goes on and on.” ~ Occupational Therapist & Somatic Experiencing Practitioner

”This course is so relevant to me personally, as I navigate how to be a good friend and partner, as well as professionally in my work as a counsellor and facilitator. By becoming clearer about when I am asking people in my life to give to or receive from me, and listening to my own and others' limits, I am able to create relationships with more safety and integrity for everyone.” ~ Trina, Therapist

"I know myself WAY more. I am trusting my impulses, my no's and yes's and I am able to voice them more clearly now. I am grateful for this modality. It is a gentle, deep, and foundational piece for creating healthy, safe, and intimate relationships with oneself and others." ~ Teacher

“Wow. This is the safest container I have ever been in. I’ve never experienced this freedom and spaciousness. There's SO much value here, and I have experienced insights I will digest for a long time, and yet I never felt overwhelmed. Very powerful” ~ Somatic Therapist

"Amazing. Do this course. It will change your life, as you practice the skills that grow your confidence to live in greater residency in your body, and to take up the space in the world that you want and need." ~ Kristina, Non-profit consultant

This was the most well-facilitated workshop I've experienced. I learnt as much about facilitation and creating safety as I did from the practices themselves. ~ Therapist

"The workshop, the facilitator/Helena and the physical/energetic space created a safe enough space to explore what was happening within myself and then also in relation with others. The dyad practices were powerful in slowing down and noticing what was happening in my body, and furthermore communicate to another (if needed) my needs/wants. I learnt to understand and respect my limits (and also those of others). The whole 3 days was a practice in strengthening the wiring within my brain and body to really value and TRUST the signals emerging from within. Getting to practice that "choosing is more important than doing" allowed me to remember the choice and agency I have. I can now better FEEL in my body what feels like my yes, no, maybe etc. I feel I have more agency now. I am honouring my rhythm more now. I understand now why I have repeatedly burnout in the work I do with others. It truly is sacred work that not only impacted me, but also has been rippling out into all my relationships. It is allowing me to access more joy, pleasure and open-hearted living with myself, others and mother earth. Words can't fully describe the power and wisdom that I accessed through this workshop :)" ~ Occupational Therapist & Somatic Experiencing Practitioner

"I am feeling deep respect and admiration for every single person that showed up. The willingness and courage to voice insecurities, vulnerabilities, and so much risk taking in allowing yourselves to be seen. The desire others have to learn about this practice and witnessing that learning unfold in realtime. Modelling taking care of oneself and each other, and asking for what you needed. Witnessing the extension of grace, care, patience and respect to one another and a willingness to make mistakes. The tapestry of my heart has been changed from feeling the efforts around inclusion, and for caring about folks that otherwise, oftentimes, get left behind. And so much gratitude to Helena and the assistants for making this happen! Something that you’re taking with you? I’m not able to articulate yet what I’m taking with me. I feel like I “should” be using words like desires, limits, domain, willing, allow etc. But the sentiments travelling through my body are more along the lines of “connected…. belonging…. healing….”
