HEART RELATIONS

MAY 6 > 8

In this workshop we will move, breathe, sound from the heart. We will explore its relationships to other structures that the heart is embedded in and “talks” with: the lungs, the brain, the pelvis, the blood, the nervous system, the limbs, the connective tissue. Following the embryological pathway of the heart we can see how from the beginning the heart is a hub and place of relation for many organs and tissues in the body. How wonderful it feels to move from a tender but radiating heart, that is in full communication with its environment. Listens, feels, speaks, follows, guides our movements, breath, mind and being.

We will touch, move, sound alone and with a partner. We will use anatomical images to guide us and follow inner subtle sensations. We will align cellular movement with the expression through space. Wild, soft, slow, fast,.. exploring with clear specificity aswell as with a wider range of focus.

Body-Mind Centering® is an integrated and embodied approach to movement, the body and conciousness. It is an ongoing, experiental journey. Through anatomical information, movement, sensation and touch it offers pathways to discover the richness of the relationships within the body and mind. Identifying, articulating, differentiating, and integrating various tissues within the body, discovering the qualities they contribute to one’s movement, how they have evolved in one’s developmental process, and the role they play in the expression of mind. With finest and deep awareness, and understanding of relationships in the body we evoke presence, threedimensional full-body being for joy and ease in movement!
