In 2020 GTT began offering real-time virtual events that are as close to a GTT module experience as we can make them in an online format.

This “Virtual Module” is open to anyone interested. There will be group interaction, teaching, and experiential sessions; everything except actual Holotropic Breathwork® sessions, since HB cannot be done virtually.

To enhance the group experience for everyone, please note that you will be expected to attend all sessions of the module just as you would if it were being held live at a retreat center.

Although you may attend this Virtual Module as a stand-alone event, there is also an option for those who wish to get full module credit. In that case, you will be able to make up the Holotropic Breathwork® component in HB-only workshops that we will offer as soon as it is safe to do so. Up to two of these combined Virtual Modules + HB component can be counted toward the seven modules required for certification.

SACRED GEOMETRY & THE INNER HEALER

In this workshop, you are invited to combine the wisdom of sacred geometry, the visualization power of mandalas, and the healing potential of the inner healer to create a truly transformative experience. By integrating these three powerful modalities, you will have the opportunity to deepen your connection to your inner self adn gain a greater understanding of your own unique journey. This can be a profound and life-changing experience, allowing you awaken your inner healer and tap into your own innate wisdom and power.

Integrating the philosophy and spirituality of Sacred Geometry, Mandalas, and the Inner Healer is a unique and powerful experience. Combining these three modalities offers participants the possibility of experiencing increased self-awareness, inner peace, and a greater connection to their own inner wisdom. This workshop is designed for anyone looking to awaken their inner healer and tap into their own innate wisdom and power, for personal insight and transformation.

  • Individually and collectively, we have a rich reservoir of inner healing intelligence
  • The source of who you are at the deepest level is a wellspring of wisdom
  • Mandala Visualisation connects you a sublime force within you which teaches, heals and guides you
  • Living from this place can offer you the courage to be who you truly are
  • Each human being is entirely original, unique and a ‘one of a kind’
  • This Virtual Module is designed to reconnect us with this side of ourselves

Mark Baugh

Mark Baugh (workshop leader) has been managing a retreat centre since 2011 in Scotland, where he offers Holotropic Breathwork® through “Caledonian Holotropic.” Mark was certified by GTT in 2018.

After working his way through a personal crisis in 2001 with the support of deep psychotherapy, a space for spiritual awareness kicked in. He embarked upon a quest to know himself further. Initially coming from a corporate background in the banking sector, he retrained in remedial and manipulative massage; as a couple counsellor with Relate; and also as a Reiki & EFT practitioner. He also trained in Tantra, NVC (Non-violent Communication), and has experienced living in community. He has a dedicated daily meditation practice called Heartfulness which he has been enjoying since 2010.

He started adventuring in holotropic states in 2009 with Grof Transpersonal Training (GTT) and from that first experience he was hooked. It was the start of an amazing journey of deeply knowing himself with like-minded others in a very safe space. Early on he decided he would embark on the Grof training programme as one of his ways of being in service.

He is also an associate member of the Institute of Psychedelic Therapy.

GTT U.S. (Colorado) Module / The Vessels of Soul’s Wisdom: A Journey Through the Three Cauldrons with Cáit Branigan

Open to anyone interested. Previous experience with Holotropic Breathwork® is not necessary.

Each participant will have two sessions of HB as an experiencer, or “breather,” and two sessions as a partner, or “sitter”. Besides the breathwork sessions and the topics covered (described below), there will be art, music, dancing, film, and integration during the module.

In addition to Holotropic Breathwork® breathing and sitting, topics explored in these modules are especially relevant for anyone working with others in expanded states of any sort for transformation and personal healing.

The Three Cauldrons are the repositories of our vital essence, our life-force, our Spirit.  They are vessels of sacredness containing our soul’s vitality, our creative energies and our soul’s experiences as it travels through life.  The Three Cauldrons rest in the physical body, fueling our energy, vocation and capacity for wisdom.

 During the course of our work together we will access our spiritual repository of vision, enlightenment and inspiration; thus allowing it to become a source for the weaving of our life pattern, through daily ritual, creativity (such as art, sound, dance) and the day to day unfolding of the self. During our work, participants will explore shamanism as a spiritual practice and the role of the shamanic journey within that context. Our aim is to ensure the clear and free-flowing nature of our essence and energy through the body; that body being open to the influence of physical, somatic and spiritual blocks.  We will explore each Cauldron – each with its own role and function – through journey, chant ceremony to explore that which lies within.  Through the unfolding of being in conscious awareness, we will hope to become ‘whole unto ourselves’, no longer restricted by patterns existing in unawareness.

 It is hoped that at the conclusion of our work, participants will have the ability to use shamanic techniques to help access and express their own sources of inspiration for use in living creatively, freely and fully from the heart.

Cáit Branigan is a Druid and an Ordained Priestess Hierophant of the Western Mystery Tradition, a Healer working within the traditions of Ireland.  She works with individuals for healing at her centre in Co. Wexford.  She also works with and teaches groups in Ireland aid internationally.  An essential part of her work is in the area of Women’s Mysteries in which she has conducted workshops and ceremonies around the country.  She also facilitates sweat lodges within the Irish Tradition and performs Rites of Passage within the community.  She is a member of the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids and a member of the Fellowship of Isis.

These modules are open events and suitable both for participants in the Holotropic Breathwork® training program, as well for those attending primarily for their personal journey of transformation.

New ways to look at psychology and spirituality offer exciting possibilities in the recovery movement, both for individual seekers and for those who work in the treatment field. This workshop explores a whole continuum, from the idea of addiction as an extreme form of attachment, which affects everyone and which is crucial to spiritual seekers of all practices, to the more articulate forms of addiction: substance, process, relationship, and more. Through theory, discussion and experiential exercises, we’ll look at:
(1) the disease paradigm of recovery;
(2) the wellness paradigm and the transpersonal recovery center;
(3) implications of perinatal and transpersonal dimensions for recovery;
(4) the 12 steps as a world yoga;
(5) addiction as spiritual emergency;
(6) addiction as shamanic crisis;
(7) recovery as a mystery school;
(8)  psychedelics and recovery;
(9) recovery and the feminine;
(10) addiction from the homeopathic perspective;
(11) recovery as death/rebirth;
(12) addiction and the global crisis; and more.

These modules are open events and suitable for both participants in the training program as well for those attending primarily for their personal journey of transformation.

Mandala drawing and group processing of the experiences are important integrative elements of the Holotropic process.

GTT Austria Module / The Art of Healing Voice with Cáit Branigan

Sound is one of the most important aspects of shamanic practice. The primal sound of the universe is to be heard in the stillness of meditation. Each aspect and being of the cosmos has its own sound, its own song, which may be heard by those who simply choose to listen. The use of the voice to heal, to express our innermost being and spirituality, is often neglected. Yet, the voice mirrors the soul and to sing is to touch the deepest parts of ourselves. The healing song is a very powerful tool which speaks directly to the soul of an individual, bypassing all other barriers or inhibitions.

In the course of this workshop, we shall explore the use of the voice in shamanic practice. We will use toning and keening techniques to access our inner worlds along with exploring the use of chant to heal and unblock our energetic bodies.
