Introduction
In this module, we continue deepening our exploration of the Tree of Life, now discovering a more practical way to apply it in both facilitation and personal discovery.
Emotional Geometry is introduced as a new tool that integrates the emotional dimensions of the Tree of Life (the sephirot), the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, and the therapeutic triangle (strategy–wound–cost).
Through the lens of sacred geometry and the geometry of the Tree of Life, students will learn to map emotional states, identify protective strategies, and recognize underlying wounds with clarity. This approach offers facilitators, integrators, and aspiring therapists a concrete framework to support integration work while cultivating deeper self-awareness in their own process.
Alongside theoretical learning, this module includes facilitation practice and the opportunity to work directly with plant medicines.
For this session, we will have a special medicine from a Yagesero shaman from Colombia, creating a unique setting for applied learning and integration.
Objective
By the end of the module, students will:
- Understand the foundations of Emotional Geometry as an integration tool.
- Learn to map inner states through the Tree of Life and the IFS model.
- Use the Strategy–Wound–Cost triangle as a compass to decode survival patterns.
- Explore emotional geometry as a universal language of balance and transformation.
- Practice applying the model in self-exploration, peer sessions, and real-case applications.
- Engage in facilitation practice supported by the plant medicine experience, under guidance and supervision.
Core Topics
- The Tree of Life as a map of emotion and consciousness: The sefirot as archetypes of development, imbalance, and transformation.
- IFS and the geometry of parts: Protectors and Exiles as nodes; the Self as the axis of coherence.
- The Strategy–Wound–Cost Triangle: A simple tool to understand how protective patterns originate and sustain themselves.
- Practical Mapping: Visual representations of parts, imbalances, and integration pathways.
- Emotional Geometry & Spiritual Evolution: Understanding emotions and parts as geometric patterns that reveal the dynamic between fear, trust, and coherence.
Personal Process Focus
Students will create their own emotional maps, identifying dominant parts, underlying wounds, and the costs generated by adaptive strategies. Through Focusing and somatic exploration practices, they will learn to recognize the geometry of each emotional state in the body and to restore the centrality of the Self as the integrating axis.
Therapeutic Integration Focus
This module trains participants to use Emotional Geometry as a facilitation tool:
-
Mapping a participant’s current state onto the Tree of Life.
-
Recognizing unconscious protectors and their relationship to exiled wounds.
-
Identifying sephirotic imbalances as energetic patterns.
-
Using the map to give participants a clear vision of their process and the pathways toward greater coherence.
