The Way Back to Being: A Transformative EMDR Workshop

THE WAY BACK TO BEING: A TRANSFORMATIVE EMDR WORKSHOP

With Tom Askman & Richard Hite

‍ ‍

Reawaken. Reprocess. Return to Your BEing.

Join us for a powerful, immersive workshop that combines the inner‑wisdom teachings from The Way Back to BEing with the deeply restorative effects of EMDR—guided by two master practitioners, Tom Askman and Richard Hite.

This unique experience helps you gently release long‑held patterns, quiet the noise of expectation, and reconnect with the intuitive, grounded sense of self you were born with.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

This workshop unites two complementary pathways to inner restoration:

The Way Back to BEing — Tom Askman’s Approach

Artist, educator, and seeker Tom Askman draws from six decades of teaching and personal transformation to guide participants toward a more heart‑centered, authentic way of living. His work illuminates how societal, cultural, and ego‑driven conditioning disconnect us from our deeper nature—and how reconnecting to that inner wisdom becomes a path to clarity, joy, and meaning.

EMDR for Emotional Reprocessing — Richard Hite’s Expertise

A pioneering practitioner, Richard Hite was certified in EMDR in 1991 and has taught thousands of people across the U.S. how to use bilateral stimulation to release stress and trauma. He integrates EMDR with somatic therapies, gong‑based sensory processing, and mind‑body methods developed in clinical settings. Richard has demonstrated this work at institutions including Harvard Medical School and the Institute of Noetic Sciences.
[awake.net]

‍ ‍

Together, Tom and Richard offer a workshop that blends reflective awareness with neurological integration—helping you awaken, reprocess, and return to a more grounded BEing.

‍ ‍

WHAT YOU WILL EXPERIENCE

  • EMDR‑informed processes that help soften emotional blocks and rewire old patterns. [awake.net]

  • Reflective and intuitive practices inspired by Tom Askman’s teachings to strengthen inner alignment. 

  • Nervous‑system balancing through bilateral stimulation and gong‑based sensory entrainment. 

  • Practical tools to shift from externally driven living to presence, clarity, and authenticity.

‍ ‍

‍ ‍FACILITATOR BIOS

‍ ‍Tom Askman — Artist, Educator, Author

‍Tom Askman is an artist and educator whose five decades of university‑level teaching and personal spiritual exploration form the foundation of The Way Back to BEing. His work centers on helping people reconnect with the quiet inner voice beneath societal conditioning. Tom’s journey—from early art education through profound personal recovery—shapes his warm, intuitive approach to cultivating awareness, authenticity, and a life lived from the inside out. ‍

Richard Hite — EMDR Pioneer, Mind‑Body Therapist

‍Richard Hite is one of America’s earliest EMDR practitioners, certified in 1991 after becoming one of the first yoga therapists with hospital privileges in 1988. He has taught thousands nationwide to use bilateral sensory processing for emotional and neurological healing. Richard integrates EMDR with somatic therapy, neurofeedback‑informed sound work, and gong entrainment—methods he has demonstrated at major institutions including Harvard Medical School and the Institute of Noetic Sciences.

WHO THIS IS FOR

  • Heal or reprocess personal history.
