After finishing Integral Coaching Canada program…Yoga Teacher’s Training?

In the end of this March, I’ll go to Canada again to finish the coaching program of ICC. I’ve worked as an integral coach for six months, and I noticed my coaching was not still “integral.” I feel that something is missing in my coaching modality…

The main intervention of my coaching is “verbal” conversation, but I found the importance of “non-verbal” intervention through actual coaching sessions. In addition, one of my clients had an extremely high “kinesthetic” intelligence (Howard Gardner’s Multi Intelligence Theory). Actually, I sometimes had difficulty to catch up with his somatic expressions. So, I decided to begin a yoga teacher’s training from next month though I had other reasons to be a yoga teacher. This is just my latest news.

Can we feel any physical sensations in a dream? Our subtle body and physical sensations

The following is an excerpt from my "body awareness journal" in the Somatic Psychology class.

I keep a dream journal every day, describing a situation in my dream, drawing a picture, and naming a title. I had a dream today. I noticed that I didn’t any physical sensations in my dreams. As Ken Wilber explains, we have three types of bodies: gross, subtle, and causal. In accordance with his theory, we have a subtle body in a dream state. I have one question: Can’t we feel any physical sensations in our dream? If so, why can’t we feel that? Or if we actually feel any physical sensations in a dream state, how can we feel that?
