Obituary

Rupa died of cancer on 4/7/2017. As she had been a devotee of Osho (Rajneesh), heartfelt tesimonials may be found on Oshnews.com

The words we say to ourselves mold our bodies, can exaggerate or alleviate pain, open or close our hearts to ourselves, to others and to the ineffable. HOW DO YOU TALK TO YOURSELF? Evidence-based Science has now shown how the brain directs the nervous system and with new thoughts and body awareness change can happen at very deep levels. 

The Rubenfeld Synergy Method is a process that uses gentle touch to access a deep integration of the body, mind, emotions, and spirit. Listening to your body can bring you to a meeting with your heart, your soul your essence. Your body contains messages and memories and is an entryway to your innate wisdom. With the aid of Rupa's touch to heighten awareness, and listening heart as a compassionate witness, change happens at many levels at once.

The Alexander Technique is an elegant mind/body system that heightens awareness through the gentle touch of a teacher. It helps release held tension, while encouraging body awareness and choice, presenting a new way of using yourself at rest or in any movement. Skills such as sports, playing a musical instrument, dance, working at a computer are enhanced. The Alexander Technique can affect every aspect of your life...and for the rest of your life!

My workshops use music, body awareness, humor, play, movement and sharing, and create a safe place to explore the unity of body, mind and spirit.  Each workshop has been carefully developed over many years to reflect and share the many tools that I have been given through my teachers and mentors in the areas of somatic psychotherapies, movement awareness, and are woven together by my imagination and spiritual development.
