Details of this retreat
Awareness and Movement for Embodied Wholeness and Presence
What does it mean to live an embodied spiritual life?
This retreat is an invitation to come home to our bodies as a way of exploring the dance of being human and divine through awareness, movement*, and relational practice.
Together we will explore:
• Cultivating embodied awareness through body, heart, and mind
• How the nervous system shapes our capacity for presence, connection, and well-being
• Listening to the stories and wisdom carried within the body
• Embodied movement and awareness as pathways toward wholeness and presence
• How embodied presence shapes the way we relate to and hold space for others
Through these explorations, participants are invited into deeper embodied wholeness, presence, and connection—with themselves, with others, and with the world.
*This retreat is accessible to persons of all levels of movement abilities.
