How the Workshops Work:
The first stage of Mimi Seton's workshops is called the "warm-up."
Exercises are mostly derived from martial arts including Qi Gong and
Tai Chi, and Yoga and Chinese Standing Exercises. Using these techniques
to become aware of breath and spinal alignment gives participants an
experience of expanded awareness, relaxation, and well-being. There
is nothing strenuous and nothing to "resist." Everything
feels good! The mind is emptied of anxiety and centered in a sense
of peace and balance. People feel more awake, alert, and alive. It is
from this sense of openness and calm that the heart of the work is approached.
After warm-up, Seton addresses what she calls The Five Natural Tools:
face, eyes, body (spine), hands, and voice. These are the tools people
relied on before video, slide shows, audio, and other technological
aids were allowed to take center-stage. They are the tools of our natural
Mind-Body unadorned. When a person masters these tools, s/he becomes
a charismatic communicator.
Workshop Goals:
Seton's specialty is voice. She is an astute observer of body language
and an analyst of voice placement who is able to intuit the "entaglements"
that impede a person's full expressiveness. Her goal is to help clients
free themselves from physical and psychological blocks in order that
their unique personal power shines forth - radiantly. Results are usually
quick ~ often surprising. Sometimes they are even inspiring.
