16 years ago Peter A. Levine taught the Needle eye advanced course. He says today that this special work with focus on near-death or coma experiences has developed enormously since then. On the one hand because so much more facts and data are available regarding the effect of anaesthesia and especially about the topic of partial awakening during an anaesthesia, on the other hand because SOMATIC EXPERIENCING (SE) has further specified and developed enormously over the last years.

For Peter A. Levine, it continues to be the most challenging material to teach within his life's work. Under the new indications, even more subtle and demanding abilities are needed, which can only be achieved if we try out this difficult support on ourselves and begin to understand it from the body. From this perspective, the knowledge learned 16 years ago is no longer sufficient to provide first-class guidance on this topic.

The further development of needle eye work is a mirror for the further development of SE in general over the last six years. Peter A. Levine says he had to increase the accuracy of his own work with near-death experiences in order to teach it at a next level. Because the material and clinical experience gathered in the meantime have increased so much, a single seminar on the Eye of the Needle has long since ceased to be sufficient to achieve the desired goal of greatest quality in the support of clients.

For containment reasons the special training with its three parts and a total of 14 days of instruction can only be booked as a whole. Repeaters pay 50%. The course instructor reserves the right to inform participants that they will not be able to continue the training if there are clinical concerns about their manner of attendance at this exquisite level.

is a completed SE training. In special cases (for example years of therapeutic body-centered experience), someone who has attended only half of the Advanced year can also be admitted. The course instructor and the responsible organizer decide on the admission after joint consultation.
