Education & Certification

Reflective Body Journal offers professional training programs for wellness practitioners who want to bring deeper connection, communication, and continuity into their client relationships.

We provide:

  • Continuing education courses for yoga teachers, with a strong emphasis on yoga philosophy, reflective practice, and inclusive teaching.

  • Professional training for licensed acupuncturists, designed to integrate the Reflective Body method into clinical care to improve patient engagement and long-term treatment outcomes.

  • Certification training for wellness and healthcare professionals seeking to deepen their presence, listening, and impact through embodied service design, ethical practice, and journaling-based communication tools.

These trainings are rooted in both time-tested wisdom and contemporary educational research. As noted in O’Connell et al. (2013, pp. 68–69), students benefit most when they are taught how to reflect. The research also showed that learners preferred handwriting in physical journals and appreciated feedback of all kinds—confirming the value of our hands-on, feedback-supported approach.

By learning the Reflective Body method, practitioners enhance not only their communication skills but also their ability to support meaningful transformation. The journal becomes a bridge—between sessions, between practitioner and client, and between intention and action.
