Every emotion has its or**sm
All human feelings have an or**sm. Pleasure has the or**sm we commonly think of when we use the word. But all other emotions have an or**sm too. This is an exploration of the or**sm of joy, sadness, anger, fear, disgust and all the other emotions...

After an ISTA training ends, something shifts. The experience settles a bit, and life picks up again in its familiar rhythms. Integration happens in its own time.
For many, the connection doesn’t end there.
The ISTA Community Sharing Circle is a space to reconnect, no matter where people are.
It’s open to all ISTA graduates. There’s no set agenda. Some people come to share, others to listen, others just to be there for a while. Sometimes it’s quiet. Sometimes more expressive. Breath, sound, and movement are all welcome.
Each circle is held live and isn’t recorded.
For some, it’s become a regular place to reconnect. A way to be with others who get it.
The next circle will be held on May 21 at 2 pm ET, hosted by , ISTA Apprentice and Organiser.
If you’d like to join, you can register at www.ISTAIntegration.life. The Zoom link is sent out before the call.
See you there ❤️

There are still a few places available - can you hear the call.
I love this training because it brings real freedom — freedom from old conditioning that keeps you tight, guarded, or disconnected from your own body.
It reminds you that your body belongs to you, that it is not your enemy but your ally. Through presence, touch, and awareness, we gently shed the masks that no longer serve us and return to something deeply human.
This work reconnects you to your breath, your truth, and the kind of safe, nourishing connection many of us have longed for. I have been organising and facilitating these events for over 13 years, and I continue to witness how profoundly they support people in coming home to themselves.
