workshops

Francine is not only a psychotherapist, educator, energy management trainer but also an accomplished abstract artist with shows in the Netherlands , Germany , Spain and the United States. Specialty: Inspiring residents to freely express themselves in paint to evoke forgotten images and feelings which have the power, in themselves, to heal.

One-hour classes allow residents to experiment with art materials, and in a non-critical, non-demanding environment, explore parts of themselves they cannot express in any other way.

In addition to being a psychotherapist and abstract artist, Francine is a Qi Gong trainer and practitioner, and teaches Qi Gong throughout the Denver Metro area. Specialty: imparting a love for movement in residents through easy, relaxing, pain-relieving exercises conducted in a sitting position.

Classes are one-hour and take the residents through gentle and varied head, neck, shoulder, arm hand and feet movement accompanied by music.

The topic I speak on with senior residents in the Meridians, Sunrises and Brighton Gardens (also Carmel Oaks and Montview Manor and other assisted living and rehabilitation and care communities) is FROM INNER SMILES TO PROFOUND JOY. This can be a one-time program, or once or twice a month because of the benefit for residents.

It's all about a fun way to easily counteract apathy, negative moods and low spirits. The focus is on choosing joy, and how to do that, because it really is a choice. There's a simple technique called the Inner Smile, in which residents are encouraged on-the-spot to smile inside their bodies at themselves DESPITE THE CIRCUMSTANCES IN WHICH THEY FIND THEMSELVES. This creates a glow they can actually feel, and that is the key to actively taking charge of feeling better. It strengthens their love for themselves, and can lighten their moods as the inner smiles even become giggles of pleasure.

There is also a simple way to move these smiles around inside the body. Not only does this relax the body and massage it on the inside, unconditional self-love and self-approval, and especially natural joy, gets stronger. The result can be more balance and a steady stream of pleasurable moods to combat worries, stress, tension nd irritability.

This topic always resounds well with residents and staff and other audiences I have (businessmen and women, students at Colorado Free U and Boulder Lifelong Learning), and they get quite excited about the ease of the Inner Smile(s) and its prospects. How we can improve what we feel on the inside of our bodies is something we all should have learned in grade school! But it's never too late, right? Although I can use a flipover, the impact of the talk comes from my voice and a few choice props, and inductive exercises in which I encourage he audience to really love themselves unconditionally on the inside. The talk is not merely a talk, but contains actual practical exercises residents perform with an inner smile - so that they really walk away with something good when it's over. Sometimes the residents so like the energy generated that they come with personal blocks to joy, or self-love. However, the program stands by itself as helpful wellness entertainment.

Francine Juhasz, psychotherapist and Ph.D. in psychology, offers you, from her long experience counseling couples in how to practice Qi Gong within the body, an opportunity to revitalize yourself without performance-enhancing medication.

A special introductory workshop on the internal martial art of Qi Gong - a unique Taoist inner body experience and practice. No strenuous outer exercises required. Qi Gong is a gentle art of balancing and circulating energy within the body so too much energy doews not reside in the head, and of storing energy within the body.

Tips on how to use all the centers of the lower half of the body, and engage them in dialogue with the practice of the Inner Smile. Also, how to vent negative energy picked up from other people, and how to salvage positive energy from negative emotions. Qi Gong II not required but advised.

Optimum energy flow within the body and within any intimate relationship absolutely necessitates re-education of the Animus (inner critic in women) and pleasing the Anima (strong, dark moods in men). Only when these inner saboteurs of energy flow, self-love and self-expression are tamed or converted into allies can one work at circulating and storing one's energy for greater health, radiance and spiritual charisma. This workshop also includes the art of recycling sexual energy safely and without chancing the kundalini syndrome.

QI GONG is about the secret, ancient methods of cultivating energy. The goal of these methods is to integrate all the energies of the body, including the most subtle, so they can be used for achieving our life goals, including greater joy and self-fulfillment, both as people and as women.

These methods are energy techniques and not religious practices. They began as Taoist exercises long ago, and gave rise to therapeutic Acupuncture, Taoist Yoga, Chi Kung (Qi Gong) and many martial arts.

All of these balance deficiencies and excesses of energy in the body and promote optimal energy flow throughout the organs, muscles, heart and brain. Qi Gong as practiced today in many places often over-emphasizes the physical exercises as well as the breathing exercises, ignoring the even greater need to consciously generate and guide energy flow.

These workshops address that need, and are about generating more energy, and about how to use it and guide it so that it flows optimally through the body – healing, strengthening, revitalizing and empowering us to lead happier and more satisfying lives.

These courses are for those who want greater physical, emotional and mental satisfaction as women. It is for women who want to know how to use their energy to revitalize themselves so they can enjoy greater health and happiness. It is an aid for those who want to avoid periods (or a lifetime) of sexual frustration, sexual boredom, or a floundering love relationship.

However, these workshops are also for those who want to evolve spiritually – who follow a spiritual path and desire to learn how to integrate their sexual desires with their spiritual beliefs and practices. For these individuals, these exercises will aid them in spiritual awakening, spiritual vitality and growth – as they sense the paradox of the sensuality of spirit.)
