Hi I’m Lara Kolesar.
With over 30 years immersed in the fields of bodywork and embodied movement, I have developed a profound insight into the nuanced capacities of the human form, including its perceiving awareness, belief systems, and the ways these elements intersect with the source of life.
My practice is dedicated to guiding individuals to explore and enhance their embodiment, enabling them to access, interpret, and integrate the wisdom from the divine.
Through my roles as a Massage Therapist, Embodiment Coach, and Facilitator, I assist people in using their refined awareness to align with and act upon this deep spiritual guidance.
Being touched
by life…
Live Life Turned on…
Ecstatic Touch is both a unique modality and an approach to life. It combines touch, movement, sound & breath to bring awareness to the magnificent sense organ that your body is. A sense organ that you learn to fine tune to consciously receive the whole spectrum of life and your unique soul’s essence. Much more than about physical touch, Ecstatic Touch is the art of opening your awareness to being touched by life: Touched by loved one’s, touched by friends, touched by nature, touched by the divine. It is a paradigm shift and an approach to life that allows you to live a life turned on!
Being connected to your turn on is being connected to what fuels you. It is the energy that animates you, the life force that brings you into health and wellbeing. Through the guidance of an Art of Ecstatic Touch session or training you practice bringing your attention and awareness to the feeling sense of your unique turn on. From there you develop the capacity to conduct self-healing physiologically and emotionally as well as opening to creativity and purpose.
Feel more…
Turned On In the body translates as physical sensations such as tingling, pulsations, warmth, and expansion. These are the vocabulary words that make up the language of your inner knowing and life force. Any sensation, subtle or strong, the ones you welcome or those you don’t, all hold information about your longings, vulnerabilities and blocks.
One to one or in a Group…
Ecstatic Touch can be experienced one to one or in a group. In a one to one session you are guided by Lara into deep relaxation and ease. From there your nervous system is available to open to the flow of embodied sensory knowing which Lara helps you to translate and trust. You learn to consciously connect with your body using Ecsatic Touch’s four core ingredients: Presence, Responsiveness, harvesting, and conducting. A group experience involves an amplified field through connection and resonance.
Magnify your sensual Intelligence…
Different from most bodywork modalities, you are invited to respond in the moment with your breath, movement, sound and your own touch. This magnifies the sensual intelligence in your body and transforms the bound energy in your body into free flowing pleasurable aliveness! Once you link your conscious to the unconscious parts of you then you have choice of how to engage and direct your life force energy.
Self intimacy, healing, & empowerment…
You get to the core of physical, mental and emotional tension that the body holds and free up stuck life force energy. As you learn to understand the language your body speaks, you can connect to its intelligence and reawaken the natural healing abilities of your body. Through Ecstatic Touch you directly get to experience the magnificence of your being and you will leave with a deeper sense of empowerment, relaxation and the joy of being alive.
