HLN Membership:

Learn, Continue Practicing & Relate

Join a circle of people from around the world who are building an online culture together — one of somatics, whole food nutrition, and healing through self-relating.

A new lifestyle emerges when this work is consistently practiced.

Together we create and weave a beautiful tapestry through shared experience and common language that starts to express and expand into tangible, physical experiences.

Fundamentally this is a chance to…

Co-create a newculture for yourself

This membership space was created with the intention of building an online space for ongoing support, education, integration, and practices within a collective.

When many nervous systems come together, even virtually, a greater capacity is created in the shared space that allows us to explore painful, joyful, triggering, and new topics with less overwhelm through collective support.

This space allows us to connect in a somatic, trauma-informed, moderated setting. Weekly live sessions, smaller sharing circles, exercises, and other practitioners who help us deepen into this work will make up the roots of this landscape that we are co-creating.

What’s inside of

The HLN Membership:

  • Every Monday from 6pm - 7:30pm EST. A 90-minute, live group session that involves check-ins, a lecture, and demos of practices. Replays available.

  • A weekly 15-minute guided practice with Luis. These will be recorded and the replays will be made available for access.

  • Connect every week for 60 minutes in this meeting led by Luis. There is no specific topic or agenda -- simply a space to continue to share, practice, and explore. Not recorded.

  • A monthly, live group session that explores inclusion through the lens of somatic experiencing and decolonization.

    Any and all members are welcome and no topic is off-limits. Bring any reflection or question you might have to share or come to just observe.

    This session is available for replay.

  • Our Sacred Circles are informal gatherings where we can commune with people who have a shared language about trauma and a curiosity to understand themselves.

    Topics we discuss may include (but certainly aren't limited to):

    -Reflecting on the Monday lecture/workshop

    • Sharing our personal explorations or journeys

    • Asking for insight or feedback from others

    • Seeking to understand or explore current events

    In this space, we'll follow the flow of our energy and see where the conversation takes us.

  • The weekly Thaw Out is an opportunity to defrost together over the projects that make us freeze, the tasks we're currently frozen over, or the things we never make time for. The goal is to expand our capacity to move through freeze with each meeting, whether that includes paperwork, finances, cleaning, food prep -- or reading, journaling, meditation, and artwork. Not recorded.

  • The Tuesday after each new moon, we host a 90-minute space where we can explore different rituals or ceremonies to welcome and kick-off the next moon cycle. Some of these events will be led by Luis and we also invite guest speakers to join. Replays available.

  • These special 60 minute sessions are ceremonies for learning how to be with activation. We have fun, we move, and we practice being seen and sharing together so we can rejoice in the resilience and ability to move through stress and trauma.

‘‘ I used to think that the opposite of depression was joy and I used to dream of one day being joyous; that is until I joined the HLN community. 

Now, I dream of expression, which I now know is the true opposite of depression.

 Through the presencing, the co-regulation and the wisdom of Luis, the HLN team and the rainbow of souls that make up the greater community, I am learning to live that dream, my life of full expression. ,,

Weekly practices for integration.

This Membership Gives You An Opportunity To…

Be a part of a passionate, empowered, & trauma-informed circle of peers.

You will get access to a Moderated, easy to use discussion forum that makes it possible for you to Introduce yourselves to one another, share experiences, steps on your journey, and all the rest of what we love to do and be when we’re together, being human.

Chat with other people around the world that are not looking to complain or dwell in their pain, but transmute it through the magic of somatics and community.

Make your ongoing trauma healing actually fun and exciting, while also supportive and relational.

With the combined power of beautiful and caring minds working together, relating in real time, over what’s really coming up for us…

Everyone is dedicated to creating an abundance of support and loving accountability in a way that keeps you engaged.

Begin to explore what a new culture can look and feel like.

Somatic practices, though effective and gaining popularity, are still counter-cultural. Most people do not live their day to day lives with somatics.

This is why our membership is so important because it helps you normalize and habitualize these practices so that they become second nature.

You’re no longer the weird one at the dinner table holding your chest and taking a deep breath - we’re all the weird ones together.

 ‘‘ I’m so curious what this space will inspire in you…’’

Recovering from trauma & stress with others…

…reminds us all that trauma is natural, that we are not broken, and that it’s far easier to do it together than alone.

Intentions for This Space…

This online membership space is meant to be a continuation and deepening of what you learned during your time in the 7-week course.

As we all set off on this journey of self-led healing – I welcome you to deepen your knowledge and stay as connected as you wish to be.

The intention of this space is to create community support around real-time topics — such as collective trauma from current or worldwide events — and continue integrating somatic work into your daily life.

It is not intended to be a replacement for therapy or medical treatment, but it can be an incredible complement to it.

The Collective

The HLN Membership was created with the intention of building a trauma-informed container for ongoing exploration, education, integration, and practices within a collective.

  • The HLN Community is only open to those who have completed the HLN 7-Week Course and we only open membership two times a year.

    If you haven’t taken the course, you can join the HLN Library membership at any time.

The HLN Community is where practices shared in the course become culture. People join from around the world throughout the week for:

  • 4-5 live sessions each week to learn & practice.

  • Q&As, lectures from Luis or guest teachers, and fun rituals.

  • Support from Luis and the HLN team via our private online platform

  • Replays, if the live events don’t align with your schedule.

  • I really appreciate the community…

    I’ve been to so many communities over the past 30 years, and a lot of them virtual - what I really appreciate about it is that there is such an awareness of the nervous system and the individuals within the process, but also the communal and the collective. I appreciate that there is a legacy at work at all the calls and the presence that’s going on there.

  • Life changing and incredibly illuminating...

    My experience of working with Luis has been truly life changing and incredibly illuminating. Luis showed me a path that I thought I was already on .... but I wasn’t completely! I owe so much to his compassionate pragmatism and incredible generosity of spirit.

  • I like how he focuses on one topic each month...

    It feels so exciting to have mastery over one particular trauma response, or trigger. I’m so excited about it!

  • Working through trauma can feel a bit isolating...

    It felt so good to have that community!

FAQs

    • HLN Community: $100 USD per month

    • HLN Library: $50 USD per month

  • You can cancel your membership anytime. No contracts. No questions.

  • Circle; it is very similar to Mighty Networks. Or if you are familiar with Facebook and Slack, Circle is a nice combination of both of those platforms.

  • Those who only watch the replays actually don’t miss much. Some people find it better because of the potential stress that comes along with participating live.

    Also, within the HLN Community space is the option to post reflections/questions in the online forum -- so you have the opportunity to engage after watching replays if you so choose.

    For some, the HLN Library is within their capacity at the moment as their bodies may find live spaces + the amount of calls ovewhelming.

You can’t create new culture alone…

It takes time, consistency, and practice with others.

We tend to work through our trauma privately or alone –  and while that is an important piece of the puzzle, after being in private practice for a decade, I've seen healing accelerate in community spaces in an incredible way, and that’s something I want us to experience together.
