EARTH BODY : invites Movement for All , Movement as Medicine... Meditation in Motion... Reconnecting Body as Earth and Earth as Body . With a gentle yet dynamic flow of energy through movement, together we will invoke earth as body and body as earth , to restore and re-story , to connect the inner dreamscape to the outer landscape through eco somatic embodiment practices that reflect the season - in place and time
This month of autumn changing color, we embody and explore themes of aspen trees groves… Rootedness, the dancing golden leaves and shards of sunlight beaming through, mushrooms at the base ..
With EARTH BODY, community of all ages, backgrounds and capacities can collectively sense ourselves within place , deepening connection and compassion with ourselves and each other and the worlds of the organic, mythic, cosmic and invisible . This is movement as medicine : relaxing and invigorating - for all ages, bodies, backgrounds - gentle intentional embodiment of the body as earth and the earth as body.
Gentle , enjoyable movement In an atmosphere of encouragement, with each individual invited to adapt the movement to their capacity
