Thorald Koren is a voice and behavioral coach, singer, and co-founder of The Brothers Koren & Sing the Body Electric. Drawing from his journey through severe OCD and decades of global performance, he teaches “voice as a whole-body instrument,” helping people reshape their nervous systems, reclaim presence, and express themselves with radical freedom and embodied power.

Isaac Koren is a vocalist, teacher, and co-founder of The Brothers Koren & Sing the Body Electric whose work explores music as a pathway to human transformation. Drawing on decades of performance, research, and healing through voice, he guides people to discover their innate worth and the profound, restorative power of song on the body and psyche.

Rollin McCraty, Ph.D. is Director of Research of the HeartMath Research Center at the HeartMath Institute. As a psycho-physiologist, Dr. McCraty’s research interests include the physiology of emotion, heart-brain communication and the global interconnectivity between people and the earth’s energetic systems. Findings from this research have been applied to the development of tools and technology to optimize individual and organizational health, performance, and quality of life. He has acted as Principal Investigator in numerous studies examining the effects of emotions on heart–brain interactions and on autonomic, cardiovascular, hormonal, and immune system function, and outcome studies to determine the benefits of positive emotion-focused interventions and heart rhythm coherence feedback in diverse organizational, educational and various clinical populations. He has been featured in a number of documentary films such as I am, The Truth, The Power of the Heart, Solar Revolution, The Way of Miracles, Cosmic Sentience, The 1-Field, Sacred Journey of the Heart, Rescued Hearts and The Living Matrix among many others.

The search for higher consciousness often becomes merely conceptual, fanciful, or even trance-inducing, and consequently does not awaken our authentic spiritual gifts to life. In extreme, these distortions can lead to dissociation, grandiosity, or masochism. 

The Enneagram provides brilliant, multi-dimensional guidance for discovering precise ways our ego patterns leave Presence and then defend against the pain of losing contact with our true nature. To compensate, our ego creates pseudo-versions of what we seek. Understanding specific ways our temperament creates personas, and cultivating compassion for our fear and suffering, loosens the grip of these views and habits so we develop greater somatic, emotional, and cognitive presence—the qualities of our true nature. Over time, we develop human virtues that enable us to embody these essential qualities in everyday life.

This session explores the nine essential qualities and pathways of growth that lead to becoming more whole and embodying awakened consciousness in our lives.

Objectives:

1. Gain an understanding of how knowledge of the Enneagram patterns can be used for psychological and spiritual growth.
2. Learn the relationship between the nine psychological patterns and their underlying essential qualities.
3. Insights into practices that apply to the nine temperament and ego patterns

Russ Hudson is one of the top teachers and developers of the Enneagram personality typology in the world today. He has been writing and teaching full-time since 1991 and has co-authored with Don Richard Riso five best-selling books on the subject, including The Wisdom of the Enneagram and Personality Types. His most recent work is the audio book The Nine Gateways to Presence which will soon be released as a book with additional

material.

Objectives

1. Identify several areas of evidence supporting telepathy and extrasensory information transfer.
2. Describe at least two ways in which the mind and brain operate according to quantum principles.

   
   
3. Distinguish entropy from syntropy in mental processes and explain how energy psychology methods help optimize the balance between them.

   
   

Objectives:

1. Analyze three evidence-based mechanisms linking the gut–brain–microbiome axis to mood regulation and resilience.

2. Correlate anxiety’s physiological and energetic roles as a threshold process in trauma and emotional healing.

3. Integrate at least one microbiome-informed intervention or somatic practice.

Dr. Louder blends scientific insight with cultural and spiritual wisdom—from the Celtic “Cauldron of Warming” to Indigenous views of unseen helpers—illustrating how the belly has long been recognized as a seat of intuition and sovereignty. Participants will learn how anxiety functions as both a physiological and spiritual gatekeeper to transformation, and how to integrate microbiome-aware strategies and gentle somatic practices into clinical and energy psychology work. Through a balance of teaching and short experiential reflection, attendees will leave grounded in evidence-based understanding and inspired by a renewed vision of inner healing rooted in the sacred ecology of the gut.

After the sudden death of her son during the opioid epidemic, Kerri Rhodes discovered that conventional symptom-focused approaches could not reach the depth of her grief. Her search for true healing led her to tapping and other mind-body methods that restored regulation and opened a new clinical path—one grounded in trauma competency, emotional stabilization, and human dignity.

Kerri now brings this integrative perspective to the Chesterfield County Jail’s HARP (Helping Addicts Recover Progressively) program, where trauma, addiction, and dysregulation frequently intersect. In this presentation, she shares a practical, compassionate model that blends energy psychology tools—including tapping and F.A.S.T.—with trauma science to support meaningful behavioral and emotional change. Through clear teaching and real-world examples, participants will explore how simple regulation practices can transform recovery outcomes for individuals often overlooked by traditional treatment systems.

Objectives:

1. Identify trauma-related factors that contribute to addiction and dysregulation in incarcerated populations.
2. Describe core components of the HARP trauma-competent model and how energy psychology supports regulation and recovery.
3. Distinguish symptom-management approaches from integrative trauma-competent methods and their impact on engagement and outcomes.

Explore how the body serves as a living library carrying personal and ancestral stories across generations. Drawing on Somatic Archaeology©, Dr. Gibson reveals how the elements—Air, Fire, Water, and Earth—reflect the emotional and historical imprints stored in our tissues and breath. Through clear teaching and guided somatic inquiry, participants will learn how to listen to the subtle narratives of the soma, release inherited burdens, and reconnect with coherence, joy, and inner truth. Attendees will gain practical tools for integrating elemental wisdom and body-based storytelling into clinical and energy psychology practice.

Objectives:
1. Describe the basic neurophysiology of stress and distinguish adaptive vs. maladaptive activation patterns.
2. Practice a Somatic Archaeology© process to access and interpret personal and trans-generational stories held in the body.
3. Apply emotional processing tools to transform shame, guilt, regret, and anger.

Rachel will share reflections and practical strategies learned in her March 2026 trip to Uganda where she trained community workers and leaders in mental health trauma care using ACEP’s Resources for Resilience, EFT and Sound Healing. Participants will learn strategies for building alliances with leaders in places of need and ways to prepare for and engage with those communities.

Objectives

1. List two strategies for teaching Energy Psychology techniques to people who have not been exposed to them in the past.
2. Describe at least one strategy for building trust when teaching EP to people from a different cultural background.

Rachel Michaelsen, LCSW, Diplomat in Comprehensive Energy Psychology, has taught Energy Psychology techniques to mental-health and social-services providers and integrated EP and Sound Healing practices in her work with individuals, couples and groups. In March of 2026 Rachel trained community workers in EFT, resources for resilience and sound healing in
