SUMMARY:MARROW: somatics\, embodiment & meditation retreat
DESCRIPTION:MARROW: an emergent experience of aliveness & connection\na retreat in somatics\, embodiment & meditation\, facilitated by Sandrine Harris (GCFP\, SEP\, RSMT/E) \nMARROW—like the life-giving and potent marrow of our bones—is a generative experience of unearthing aliveness. It is a process of unlearning patterns of thinking\, feeling\, and moving that have been forged unconsciously over time\, and often from outside messages. In this repatterning together through embodied presence and connection\, there are invitations into quiet internal explorations\, meaningful conversations and listening\, personal writing\, flows of creativity\, sensory movement\, and meditation for waking up to our whole human experience. \nThrough a weave of somatics (body sensing and process)\, embodiment (presence of the layers of mind\, heart\, and body)\, and meditation (in both movement and stillness)\, we integrate qualities of the living we are in\, and out of the push of doing. Together\, we forge a path connecting our inner landscapes with belonging—in community and within the natural world. \nThis program offers a pathway for processing and integrating our lived experience through non-verbal\, sensory pathways. It is a way of waking up to ourselves\, sensing our inner rhythms\, and being with grief\, joy\, and everything in between. \nIn this program\, you will experience: \n– Guided movement flows for all bodies and everybody\, drawn from dance\, martial arts\, Feldenkrais® \, and more\n– Somatic sensory movement for learning to listen through and with our bodies\n– Guided meditation\, in supported laying and sitting\, and walking meditation indoors and outdoors\n– Forest bathing and an embodied exploration of connection with the natural world\n– Creative mark-making on paper with paints\n– Personal writing\, reflection\, and sharing\n– Rest\, as a part of the process of honoring our bodies and remembering the dignity of rest\n– You will emerge from MARROW feeling embodied\, present\, and connected with a greater sense of belonging. \nNOTE: No experience with somatics\, movement\, or meditation is needed to join us. All adults 20+ years of age are welcome. This program is facilitated through a trauma-sensitive approach. The final evening includes an energizing\, celebratory movement party.

SUMMARY:Freeing Your Communication Chakra\, freeing the tongue\, jaw\, and neck
DESCRIPTION:The Communication Chakra system\, located at the center of your throat\, is the gateway to our Body\, Mind\, and Soul Unity. It is used to express our Energy\, improve our Self-Communication\, and enhance our daily well-being. \nThis chakra is for communicating with yourself. When you communicate with yourself\, you can also communicate with others. So interfering with or blocking it limits your ability to listen to your body. \nIn particular\, tightening your Jaw Joint stiffens your Neck and Tongue\, compromising your Posture and making it difficult to maintain the union of your Body and Mind. \nFor example\, your Jaw is a joint of two bones that function together via ligaments. Like all joints\, your jaw is supposed to be flexible enough to allow the transfer of body fluids’ energy (such as your blood) and electrical impulses between the brain and the soles of your feet. \nSo\, tightening the joint limits your brain’s functions\, especially neuroplasticity\, one of the brain’s most important abilities for adapting to change. \nAnd when you feel weakness or fatigue in any part of your body\, this feeling is actually arising in your brain\, meaning that your brain is weakened and fatigued. Therefore\, tightening your Jaw and Neck joints can reflect or cause common health issues (e.g.\, upper back pain\, loosening teeth\, headaches\, irritation\, anxiety\, etc.). \nIn this Series 3\, we will improve the brain’s function and capability by freeing your Jaw and Next Joints. In return\, this series will enhance your Body\, Mind\, and Soul Unity ! \nAlways remember that Healing Your Posture\, Heal Your Life!
