Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level Two
Deepen Your Ability to
Read, Understand and Respond to Complex Energy Dynamics
Learn to recognize when someone's energy patterns require a different approach,
strengthen your therapeutic presence and boundaries, and develop the discernment
to respond with greater clarity, compassion and confidence.
You already know that every person has an energy signature.
A unique energetic way of being in the world.
In Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level One, you began exploring your own signature:
how you naturally show up, how others experience your presence, and how projection,
shadow and unconscious energy habits can influence your relationships.
Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level Two takes that awareness deeper.
Because not every person you encounter will respond to connection, grounding
or therapeutic presence in the way you expect.
Sometimes you may sense that something is different.
A person may have difficulty grounding, or they may struggle to feel anything at all.
They may become overwhelmed by sensation or emotion, or they may pull away,
dissociate or become rigid.
Or you may simply find yourself thinking: Why isn't what usually works, working here?
This advanced master class teaches you how to recognize these more complex energy dynamics without immediately assuming you are doing something wrong or judging the person in front of you.
Instead, you learn to listen more deeply, discern what you are sensing, while staying connected to yourself, ultimately deepening and adapting your presence to what the moment requires.
Learn to meet more complex energy dynamics with greater clarity and confidence

WHEN THE USUAL APPROACH DOESN'T WORK
As your awareness of energy deepens, you notice more.
You may recognize when someone's energy feels pulled inward, overly focused, diffuse, rigid or difficult to connect with.
You may notice that someone cannot easily receive nurturing energy, even when they desperately need it.
You may sense fear underneath someone's resistance to grounding.
Or notice something happening within your own system when you are with a particular person.
You feel pulled toward them or pushed away.
You feel drained, uncomfortable, compelled to help, yet unsure of what to do next.
For practitioners especially, these experiences can be confusing.
You end up questioning your skills, or trying to work harder.
What happens is that you can inadvertently cross a boundary or take responsibility
for something that isn't yours to carry.
Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level Two introduces what Suzanne calls Special Energy Considerations: adaptations to a person's energy signature that exist outside the bell curve of what is typical.
These adaptations may appear in people who have experienced long-term excessive stress or unresolved trauma, as well as in a variety of other circumstances.
Learning to recognize these differences offers you another possibility:
Instead of working harder, you can become more discerning.
Instead of assuming, you can become curious.
Instead of losing yourself in another person's experience, you can remain grounded within your own.
Sometimes the most important shift isn't doing more. It's understanding what you're experiencing.
WHAT BECOMES POSSIBLE WHEN YOUR DISCERNMENT DEEPENS
The more clearly you understand your own energy signature, the easier it becomes to recognize when something else is entering the interaction.
You begin developing the ability to distinguish between:
What belongs to you.
What may belong to the other person.
What is happening between you.
And what may simply require a different approach.
This is where the skills from Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level One become increasingly practical.
You learn to listen through your entire navigational system rather than relying solely on your thoughts or assumptions.
You become more aware of your own reactions before they unconsciously begin driving the interaction.
You learn how to modulate your presence rather than pushing harder when someone isn't able to receive you.
And you strengthen the boundaries that allow you to remain compassionate without becoming depleted.
As these skills deepen, you may experience:
Greater confidence when working with complex clients or situations
Increased ability to recognize subtle energy patterns
Stronger therapeutic and personal boundaries
Less tendency to overwork, rescue or take responsibility for another person's process
Greater ability to remain grounded when someone else is overwhelmed
More confidence in trusting information from your own navigational system
Greater flexibility in how you offer your presence
More neutral, supportive communication
A deeper capacity to meet people where they are
Greater ability to remain full and resourced while supporting others
This isn't about labeling people.
And it isn't about diagnosing someone based on what you sense.
It is about developing enough awareness to recognize:
Something different is happening here. What does this person need from me now?
Develop the discernment to respond instead of react
TRAINING OVERVIEW
Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level Two is an advanced master class into energy awareness, therapeutic presence, embodied discernment, healthy boundaries and the more complex patterns you may encounter in your professional and personal relationships.
The training builds upon the foundations established in Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level One while taking you deeper into your ability to perceive and work with the energy dynamics occurring between people.
One important part of this exploration is revisiting the Energy Profiles, Habits and Antidotes through the body's different wisdom areas, exploring the progressive experience of embodiment—from the grounding and foundational wisdom of the legs, feet, pelvis, belly and gut, into the deeper wisdom of the chest, heart and bones, and ultimately into the expansive awareness of the skin and beyond.
This exploration invites you to notice where energy is available, where it may feel restricted or withdrawn, and what supports a greater sense of fullness, connection and embodiment.
Rather than seeing these patterns as problems to fix, you'll learn to recognize what they may reveal about where a person has access to energy, where their flow may be limited, and what embodied resources may support greater fullness and connection.
From there, you'll move into Special Energy Considerations, exploring circumstances in which someone's energy signature may require greater awareness, different resources, clearer boundaries or a different kind of therapeutic presence.
Throughout the three-day training, these teachings are integrated with grounding and filling practices, demonstrations, Q&A, therapeutic presence and inner healing practices.
Format
Advanced immersion-style training combining teaching, demonstrations, guided embodiment, self-reflection, opportunity for partner exercises, and practical applications.
Some exercises are designed to be experienced with a practice partner whenever possible. Working with another person gives you the opportunity to experience energetic differences directly and practice receiving and communicating information in real time.
Who This Training Is For
CranioSacral Therapists
Bodyworkers
Coaches and counselors
Healthcare providers
Energy practitioners
Leaders and educators
Caregivers
Anyone who has completed Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level One and wants to deepen their understanding of human connection and energetic dynamics
What Makes This Training Different
Many trainings teach you what to do when another person is struggling.
This training also asks:
What is happening inside you while you are with them?
Your own body becomes part of your navigational system.
Rather than immediately interpreting, diagnosing or trying to fix what you encounter, you learn to listen.
You learn to recognize patterns.
You learn to notice your own responses.
And then you develop the flexibility to adjust your presence while remaining grounded in yourself.
The more present you are within yourself, the more clearly you can perceive what is needed and respond therapeutically.
HEAR WHAT OTHERS HAVE DISCOVERED
A timely course to deepen ones knowledge around your energy signature, your shadow and projection, and the way you show up in the world at work, home, play in an authentic way that feeds your soul!
This has been entirely life changing for me professionally and personally.
This course really helped me connect the dots. It helped me to learn more about some of the things I have done in my massage therapy career over the yeers and also in distance healing practices. To have words to better understand what has worked well-and what hasn't--and why it did or didn't.
It's always wonderful when we can have both Suzanne and Lori,...the interplay between them and the "binocular vision" that comes from two viewpoints makes for really worthwhile learning.
This course offered me strength in clarity and confidence in understanding myself in my personal life and my clients in my professional practice.
It was tremendously valuable to delve into the more difficult personality types.
Discover what becomes possible when you can stay grounded in the presence of complexity
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Inside this master class, you'll learn how to:
Deepen your understanding of your own energy signature and how it interacts with others
Listen for information through your whole-body navigational system
Recognize energy profiles connected with different wisdom areas of the body
Identify habitual patterns of energy flow and explore corresponding "antidotes" that support greater embodiment
Recognize when someone's energy dynamics may require a different approach
Understand special energy considerations associated with difficulty grounding, difficulty sensing or connecting, sensory integration challenges, trauma responses, overwhelm and other complex patterns
Recognize different ways trauma may affect embodiment, including dissociation, isolation and pulling inward
Stay grounded and resourced when another person's system becomes activated
Recognize when you are being pulled toward over-responsibility, rescuing or working too hard
Strengthen your ability to establish and maintain healthy energetic boundaries
Modulate your energy field from more focused to more diffuse depending upon what another person can comfortably receive
Give feedback using neutral, nonjudgmental therapeutic language
Recognize that feedback reflects the energetic chemistry between two people rather than an absolute judgment about either person
Receive feedback without automatically taking it personally
Meet another person where they are while remaining connected to yourself
Expand your capacity to hold a loving, therapeutic presence without imposing an agenda
Your experience of another person's energy is always occurring within the relationship between your field and theirs.
This becomes practical knowledge you can bring into therapeutic sessions, professional relationships, family dynamics and everyday life.
Stay connected to yourself while connecting more deeply with others
SPECIAL ENERGY CONSIDERATIONS
One of the most important components of Discovering Your Energy Signature: Level Two is learning to recognize situations that may fall outside the energy patterns you typically encounter.
The training explores a range of special energy considerations associated with difficulty grounding, difficulty sensing or connecting, sensory integration challenges, trauma responses, overwhelm and other complex patterns.
The course materials also discuss challenging dynamics that practitioners may encounter in relationships with people who have been diagnosed with certain personality disorders or exhibit associated behaviors.
The purpose of this material is not to teach you to diagnose another person.
It is to help you recognize when an interaction may require particularly clear grounding, compassion, boundaries and awareness so that you don't become pulled out of yourself or depleted by the relationship.
Compassion becomes more sustainable when it is supported by discernment and healthy boundaries.

YOUR PRESENCE IS PART OF THE WORK
One of the foundational teachings of Healing From the Core® is that effective therapeutic work begins with presence.
Not simply being physically present.
Being present within yourself.
Suzanne describes Full Body Presence as the ability to feel all parts of your body, experience healthy energy flowing through you, connect with inner and outer resources, and maintain healthy boundaries.
That embodied presence gives you access to the present-moment sensory information available through your navigational system.
And as the people and circumstances you encounter become more complex, that foundation becomes even more important.
You don't have to know everything.
You don't have to solve everything.
And you don't have to absorb what belongs to someone else.
You can remain grounded.
You can listen.
You can notice.
You can respond.
And you can stay connected to the fullness of who you are while you do it.
