TRANSform
Nigredo
This is part one of a four part training program that will condition your mind, body and spirit and guide you through freeing yourself from the burdens and baggage of your past. That baggage you carry around from your past is weighing you down and causing you to expend a lot more energy in your day to day. It's no wonder that you don't have energy left over at the end of the day for the things that really matter to you.
The baggage you carry from your past is energy from past experiences that are being stored in your body. When you can come safely and comfortably back to your body, it will show you how to direct your attention in ways that will support your deepest healing. Your body holds the keys to past experiences that you need mending from and how to do that mending. I know that for us Trans folx living in our bodies hasn’t always been easy.
The basis of TRANSform Nigredo is to begin a profound transformation process by teaching you how to come back to your body in a way that feels tolerable, neutral and even pleasurable at some point so that it can guide your deeper healing.
I lived for decades being disconnected from my body. It was easier and more comfortable (or at least more familiar) to live in the emotional turmoil of my mind. Omg it used to be so natural for me to ruminate over parts of my past that brought anger, rage, sadness, embarrassment or shame. It was also my MO (when not living in my past) to fret over the future and brace myself for the worst.
How exhausting and talk about a physical, mental and emotional system that was molded by traaauuuummmmaaaaa, right?
The past and the future are illusions that can only be experienced in the mind and the more you live up here the further disconnected you will be from your body. When you can teach your nervous system that living in the present moment can be safe, comfortable and eventually even pleasurable you will naturally tend towards living in your body more and more and in your head less and less.
But Trans people are rarely taught that living in our bodies is safe. We aren’t taught how to create comfortable experiences in our bodies. Most people in general are at war with their bodies as we are encultured in unrealistic western standards of beauty.
This is a community that can support Trans people in creating a different experience of themselves and their bodies. One that is rooted in nervous system resiliency, Spirit and reverence for all that we are, bodies, minds, heart, the whole 9.
This is a group space for Trans and Nonbinary folx who are ready to free themselves from the burdens of their past so they can deepen their connection with their bodies, Spirit and creativity.
Thank you for considering this community as your support system and for choosing me as your guide.
In Love and Service,
Leucas
“Once I learned how to reconnect with my body and the felt sensations of emotions I began to see parts of my past and past versions of myself that needed attention in order to be healed. And these felt sensations taught me how to create energetic releases in a safe and regulated way. With this release, much of my chronic pain was alleviated and so was the tension of living in my head so much.”
Leucas Loves | Spirit Guide, Mentor and Empowerment Practitioner
Because we strive for the highest levels of safety and most potent healing for our participants, we kindly ask allies to please take a step back from this space. This is only for Trans and Nonbinary Folx. Thank you for centering our healing.
“Working with Leucas as a mentor has been a life-changing experience. When we started our calls, I was feeling stuck in many ways, wanting peace and not knowing how or where to find it. I was on an academic path that didn’t feel aligned with the way I wanted to exist in the world, but wasn’t fully aware of it. I was studying literature but didn’t quite know what for anymore. During one especially life-changing conversation, Leucas helped me connect to my sense of purpose, to a very deep « why ». I realized I wanted to shift my focus from fiction to real life, from the literary to the political and teach French to asylum seekers here in Paris. Leucas also guided me in somatic practices which I still use to this day. Not only did Leucas coach me into imagining new and exciting possibilities for myself, he took the time to look at the whole picture, including the causes of what had been holding me back until now. The somatic work I did with Leucas helped me connect safely to the present moment and enabled me to take action.
With wise guidance, fiery encouragement and radical understanding, Leucas has helped me unearth my truest values and a new-found sense of faith in who I am and wish to be in this world.”
What You Can Expect from Nigredo
In this phase of TRANSform we will cover the foundations of trauma and how that impacts your nervous system so that you can be more skilled in your emotional regulation. You will be guided through light and gentle body based and visual practices that will foster your nervous system resiliency and immediately begin your healing process. We will gather in community ceremonies where we can share what is on our hearts, connect with other like minded trans and nonbinary folx and ultimately inspire one another in healing our relationship to our bodies, Spirits and even our relationship with others. The practices I share are informed by my 7+ years of studying yoga and inspired by somatic experiencing, shamanic energy healing, trance, Buddhism and other spiritual philosophy.
TRANSform Nigredo is part one of a four part training and mentorship program that I am offering. The first phase in the alchemical process of turning lead into gold is called Nigredo. The Nigredo phase means black and it is where we turn off the lights and go inward. It may be dark at times but is only in darkness that we can see light. Here we are cultivating a healthy and pleasurable relationship with our bodies so that we can even become familiar with its darker nooks and crannies. Throughout this program, I will be giving you tools to begin transmuting that darkness.
The Nigredo phase is a prerequisite to taking parts two through four with me, the Albedo, Citrinitas and Rubedo phases. These later phases are designed to guide you through fully transforming your traumas and embodying your purpose with clarity, consistency and creative flow. The Nigredo phase will help you build a solid foundation that you can build your deeper healing and purpose work from. By the end of the Nigredo phase you will embody the grounded and balanced state of a warrior with the courage and resources to participate in Albedo, Citrinitas and Rubedo successfully.
Lastly, please be informed that this is an intensive program and it is recommended that you have in place extra systems of support outside of this group program incase you need help processing any emotions or experiences that come up for you. I am not a licensed mental health professional and it may be useful that you have one on your team as you go through this program. Reach out if you have any questions around this or if you’d like some guidance on creating strong support systems that can help to ensure your success throughout this program.
Love Notes from Past Group Clients
“When I started I was feeling so much lack, now I feel grateful for the power within me to create my life. I’m listening to my body more and I am in a happier relationship with it. I am accountable for myself, my mission, desires and routines.”
“I started in a place of heartbreak with a dysregulated nervous system due to my living situation, feeling unsafe and like life was happening to me. I now live in a place of gratitude, creating the life of my dreams, flowing with the universe and realizing the abundance I am stepping into as me. I quit my comfortable full time job to pursue my entrepreneurial dream and I’m now living with an open heart, receptive to love and all the beauty of this life, whereas before I was scared and guarded.”
“Leucas is the undying embers from hearty bonfire and the sturdy nurturing ground beneath.
I have often known what I have needed or what to do to step into active healing throughout my journey, but have never been able to see and feel so clearly a sense of achievement and progress as much as I did while working with Leucas. I felt encouraged, believed in, unconditionally loved, and ever so gently pushed into practice and action while being embraced in the uncomfortability that is change and trying new things. His unique strengths were fundamental to my putting my self devotion and self love into tangible action this year, and I am changed by his love and presence.”
