Embodied Archetypes Workshops, retreats & coaching that explore and embody the archetypes as potent tools for healing and growth with Dr Lewis Barfoot. Est. 2012

Learn how to use the archetypes to support you in all aspects of you life: Be that to help you honour your boundaries, take care of your needs, accept all aspects of your self and body, achieve your goals, fall in love with life itself, speak your truth, say NO and mean it and let go of old habits that no longer serve. Learn how the shadow pole of each archetype manifests in you and how to befriend and integrate it so you can stop playing the victim, stop sabotaging your life and reclaim your true power and purpose.

“Lewis holds the most powerful, authentic space I’ve ever been in. I felt safe, encouraged, honoured, free and open. Deepest gratitude for your authentic embodied being and for sharing your gifts so powerfully, clearly and humbly in a way, which by its very nature lifts us all” Deirdre Ryan

“My current self, past self and future self are very grateful” - Fran

“I just wanted to say, your work matters, makes a difference and has a ripple effect across lives” Workshop participant

Drawing on 15 years of experience in creating, directing and performing transformative theatre and music I support clients in gaining self confidence in speaking their truth on and off stage. In some sessions I draw upon my expertise as a medical Doctor to facilitate a shift in the way clients hold beliefs about their body and wellbeing. We can work on releasing blocked emotions; rage and shame being the most commonly explored. In some sessions we focus purely on archetypal work and how that can engage an empowering shift in consciousness. Often we will work with shadows, integrating them into wholeness and harmony and redeploying them to be of service to our highest selves. It is my intention to empower you to take care of your own wellbeing. Each session will be tailor made to meet your needs. https://www.embodiedarchetypes.com/

Learn tips, tools & techniques to give you the confidence to get up and dance to a blues song. We will explore foundational aspects of partner dancing, look at rhythm, musicality, the historic roots of Blues and get you connected to your breathe, your feeling body, your partner and the music. My intention is to support you to cultivate a more authentic connection within your blues dance which can positively impact all of your dancing and your whole life.

In the Winter Blues we will explore close embrace, musicality, different rhythms, revise basic turns and look at followers autonomy. Open to anyone who attended my classes before & for those with some Blues experience.

Embodied Archetypes

Coaching and Workshops facilitated by Dr Lewis Barfoot

Embodied Archetype Workshops (EAW) are a series of workshops that use the power of myths and archetypes as a vehicle for full expression of the human experience. Sacred and safe explorations in body, voice and spirit in celebration of the Divine Feminine experience. Currently taking place in London and Cork. My intention is to open up this work to men to facilitate them on archetypal journeys with the Divine Masculine very soon. Bear with me brothers, as I birth this work for us.

The work so far - I help women speak their truth without apology. Especially without apology or deference to the masculine. After centuries of patriarchal suppression there is a legacy of silencing that pervades the female psyche of many women still, woven into the trabeculae of the feminine skeleton. A covert silencer. I support women to stand in their truth, TRUST their intuition and share all of themselves with the world. It is my role to support women to realign this framing. To liberate the legacy so many of us carry. To enable women to rise up: rise up into the fullness of their being, into the magnificence of their spirit and into the unbounded depth of their wisdom and intuition. To stand and speak our simple truth. As we rise together, shoulder upon shoulder, we give permission to ourselves and other women to rise, to take up the space we deserve, to breathe in the abundance and wisdom that is our birthright. As we stand in our truth we may confidently and unapologetically shine our radiance onto the masculine.

I continue to offer creative coaching to individuals, actors in training and people in business and am available as a director for innovative, relevant and juicy theatre and performance.
