The body as ground: where presence deepens, perception opens, and belonging returns.
Embodiment in Fields
There is a way of knowing that does not begin in the mind.
It begins in the body—as the ground of presence, perception, and belonging.
Here, the nervous system learns it does not have to brace against life. Here, sensation becomes language again. And from this ground, something older and more subtle begins to stir: an awareness of the living fields of which we are already a part.
Embodiment in Fields is an initiation into that remembering.
Rooted in Biodynamic Craniosacral and Pre and Perinatal Principles, Somatic Experiencing–informed practice, and the relational danger to safety awareness found in the peace-oriented martial art Aikido, this work begins by cultivating the capacity to stay—to feel, to listen, and to remain present within the rhythms of the body and life.
As this foundation stabilizes, perception expands, widens, and deepens.
Participants are gradually introduced to the layers of experience that extend beyond the individual self: the relational field between people, ancestral and inherited patterns, and the mythic and transpersonal dimensions that have long been named across traditions. These are not approached as concepts, but as lived, embodied realities.
Nothing is forced open. Instead, we develop the steadiness to meet what arises without losing contact with the body. In this way, healing becomes less about intervention and more about relationship—an unfolding that happens as we become more available to the intelligence moving within and around us.
Join in.
This six-part course (three hours per session) is designed for practitioners, experienced clients of somatic work, and those humans who feel called toward a deeper maturation of presence—people orienting toward a lived, relational form of wisdom in a time of transition.
Along with Dancing with Quantum Fields, Embodiment in Fields serves as a prerequisite for the Alchemical Somatic Fields Training, a facilitator pathway for those who feel called to carry this work forward.
Become who you still can be in this lifetime.
There are ways of being human that are not taught, but remembered.
Ways of sensing, relating, and responding that arise when the body is no longer organized around survival alone, but becomes a ground for deeper listening.
What emerges is not a role, but a quality of presence—one that can meet the complexity of this time without turning away.
In many traditions, this is the beginning of elderhood.
Each segment offers invitations into some somatic movement and meditation, along with theory, and representation structures for practical insights. The Map of Seven Realms is recommended reading.
The EiF classes are taught by Brigit Viksnins, with support from Paulette Robinson, Kimberly Clark, Gisele Silva, Katja Markelova, and Jon Musgrave.
Feedback from the March 2026 ETG, one example of our Alchemical Somatic Fields work in action:
Dear Brigit, I am in Awe of what you undertake to create and hold the alchemical field as you did. Wow!
"Thanks" seems like such an inadequate expression of appreciation coming from me. The experience so profoundly shifted my body, soul and consciousness. Truly, it was one of the most profound experiences I have undertaken. My relationship with my Mother and my Father, and Myself, have completely shifted. The power of understanding and then of forgiveness is truly transmorphic on a cellular, etheric-body level (probably even a quantum level). Even more profound, I had an intuitive thought in the weeks before the ETG that I could boil down to a single intention my reason for doing the program: to untangle my fear and subtle distrust of every other human being that I meet. And that happened. I uncovered the root behind my basic foundational consciousness that there is something wrong with the foundation of my relationship to this world - i.e., my relationship with my mother; my life-giving, nurturing, "other". With the uncovering of that distrust, the root of that distrust, and the opportunity taken to forgive her, my relationship to every other beautiful human I meet has shifted. That is an amazing result. Thank you.
Much love. I am sure we will see each other again. Frank Talbott, Esq, RCST®

Redistribution Tuition
$750 USD upfront
$250 USD x 3 months
The Redistribution Tuition allows you to help cover the tuition cost of your peers who have less. Consider if this price is for you if you are comfortably able to meet all of your basic needs and have expendable income. This is especially for property-owners/high-end renters, white, cis, able-bodied, settler, university educated people, or if you have investments / a retirement-fund.
Standard Tuition
$500 USD upfront
$167 USD X 3 months
The Standard Tuition is the actual cost of the course. Consider this price if you are able to meet your basic needs and have little-to-no expendable income. Paying for this class may qualify as a sacrifice but it would not create hardship.
Meet Your Instructor
Brigit Viksnins, MAT, SEP, RCST®, BCTMB created the flourishing professional training program "Alchemical Alignment: Somatic Trauma Resolution and Embodiment of Spirit," which harmonizes with any mind, body, or spirit therapeutic practice using Biodynamic Craniosacral, Pre and Perinatal, shamanic, and Aikido principles, along with Somatic Experiencing-informed trauma resolution skills. Based on thirty years of education and private practice experience, Alchemical Alignment® is a freeze-melting modality that guides and supports practitioners both in the cultivation of subtle existential-level skills for meeting post-inescapable conditions of danger in themselves and others; and in the expansion their existing range of resilience—especially after the people around them have been the danger. Beyond trauma resolution, embodiment of spirit becomes possible. She also created the Alignment Sequence, a mindful movement tool for post-traumatic embodiment. Her book, The Map of Seven Realms: Melting Freeze at the Dawn of the Golden Age, written with heather de guzman gordon, emerged as we entered the year of the dragon. Now, having studied and practiced interdimensional constellations work for years, her latest projects include immersives and intensives for transmitting fields-related comprehension and capacities, with Paulette Robinson.
Scholarship Tuition
$350 USD upfront
$117 USD X 3 months
The Scholarship Tuition is discounted. Consider if this price is for you if paying standard tuition would be significant or stressful because you have difficulty accessing resources and meeting basic needs takes up most of your budget. This is especially for people who are of the global majority (POC), LGBTQIA+, working class, disabled, neurodivergent, or immigrants.
