Full Day Event with Breakout Session #1: Grief Healing

$497

 

Grief is love that has nowhere to go.

This sacred space is an invitation to bring your sorrow into the light. Whether you’re grieving a loss, a version of yourself, or something unspoken—this workshop offers a safe, compassionate container to move through what was never meant to be carried alone.

Through somatic practices, guided emotional release, and gentle rituals, you will begin to honor your grief, rather than fear it. You’ll be supported in feeling fully, expressing freely, and making room for healing where pain once lived.

 

This is not about getting over it. It’s about moving THROUGH it with love, with reverence, with support.

REGISTER NOW

Full Day Event with Breakout Session #2: Sacred Rage

$497

 

Your rage is not the problem. It’s the portal.

Rage is sacred. It is the roar of your boundaries, the fire of your unmet needs, and the voice of your silenced truth. In this dynamic and deeply somatic session, you’ll be guided to meet your rage with reverence.

Using breath, movement, sound, and therapeutic tools, you’ll be invited to safely express the anger, frustration, or injustice that may be buried beneath years of suppression. This is about release, not reaction. Expression, not explosion.

Shake loose the shackles of repression and reclaim the power that's been locked away.

You don’t need to be afraid of your anger. It’s time to alchemize it.

REGISTER NOW

Full Day Event with Breakout Session #3: Inner Child

$497

 

Inside every adult is a child who still needs to be seen.

Your inner child holds the original wounds, unmet needs, and untouched magic of your early life.

In this introductory session, you’ll begin the tender and transformative process of reconnecting with this part of yourself.

Through guided visualization, gentle breathwork, and reflective journaling, you’ll meet the younger you who still lives within and offer them the love, safety, and reassurance they’ve been longing for.

This is the beginning of reparenting. A return to innocence. A remembering of your wholeness.

You are not broken. You are becoming whole again.

MEDICAL DISCLAIMER + LIABILITY WAIVER

We Are The Medicine  Medical Disclaimer + Liability Waiver

Presented by Go Within Institute (GWI)

By purchasing a ticket and participating in the We Are The Medicine Event, I acknowledge and agree to the following terms and conditions:

  1. Nature of the Event

I understand that this event, facilitated by Go Within Institute and its representatives, is not psychotherapy, medical treatment, or a substitute for professional medical or mental health care. All services and experiences are offered as complementary holistic wellness modalities.

Modalities may include:

  • Breathwork
  • Hypnotherapy
  • Somatic and emotional healing
  • Inner child healing
  • Expressive arts
  • Yoga and somatic movement
  • Reiki energy healing
  • Sound healing
  • Meditation

These are considered “self-help” and integrative practices intended to support personal insight, emotional release, and nervous system regulation.

  1. Voluntary Participation + Informed Consent

When working with these modalities, which may elicit repressed emotions or unprocessed traumatic events, strong physical and psychological responses can emerge which may be startling to individuals. While this is part of the healing process, one needs to learn to navigate these experiences safely.

I acknowledge that I am participating voluntarily and understand that I am solely responsible for my physical, mental, and emotional well-being during and after the event.

I affirm that I am in good health and have consulted my medical or mental health provider if I have any condition that could be affected by participation in breathwork, hypnotherapy, yoga, movement, or deep emotional processes.

I agree to honor my body’s signals, take breaks when needed, and communicate with facilitators if I feel overwhelmed or unwell.

  1. Assumption of Risk – Activities May Include:

Breathwork Risks:

Dizziness, lightheadedness, hyperventilation

Muscle cramping or tingling

Nausea, chest discomfort

Temporary emotional intensity or re-traumatization

*Contraindications include: Cardiovascular conditions, epilepsy, retinal detachment, late-stage pregnancy, acute trauma, unmanaged psychiatric disorders.

Hypnotherapy Risks:

Recall of painful or traumatic memories

Emotional discomfort, disorientation

Triggering of unresolved psychological patterns

*Not recommended for: Individuals with active psychosis, unmanaged DID, or those unwilling to engage in introspection.

Yoga & Somatic Movement Risks:

Physical discomfort, muscle strain, or injury

Aggravation of pre-existing conditions (e.g. herniated disc, recent surgery)

*Participants should modify as needed based on any physical limitations.

Emotional Processing Risks:

Intense emotional expression (crying, shaking, rage release)

Temporary feelings of vulnerability, sadness, or confusion

Group dynamics may evoke interpersonal trauma responses

*Facilitators are trained to hold space, but each participant is responsible for their self-care and boundaries.

  1. Recommendations for Emotional Safety

It is strongly recommended that I, the participant, am working alongside or have access to a trauma-informed therapist, counselor, or healing practitioner, especially if I have a history of complex trauma or mental health conditions. While there will be on-site coaches available to help with processing difficult experiences and emotions at the event, I understand that this is ultimately my responsibility, especially after the event and during the integration period.

  1. Release of Liability

By participating, I release liability and hold harmless Go Within Institute, We Are The Medicine, Dr. Liz Burkholder, all facilitators, volunteers, and the event venue from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, or causes of action that may arise from participation in this event—including, but not limited to, physical injury, emotional distress, or unforeseen reactions.

  1. Confidentiality + Group Agreement

I agree to respect the confidentiality of all participants and will not share the stories, identities, or experiences of others. I understand that this is a sacred space and agree to uphold the integrity of the container.

  1. Legal and Jurisdiction

This agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state of North Carolina. Any disputes arising from this agreement shall be settled in North Carolina courts.
