In these challenging, polarizing times we are called to draw from
creative, healing energies from deeper parts of the Self. Dreams,
imagination, and embodied knowing offer profound resources —
personally, culturally, and from the timeless collective unconscious
that connects us to one another, to all of life, and to the creative
intelligence that informs us all. Transformation is an embodied,
cellular process involving reclaiming rejected parts of the self
necessary for wholeness. Re-integrating shadow material projected
onto others is essential to the work: What could emerge if we
reclaim this “other?”
Authentic Movement, or embodied active imagination, is a simple
yet powerful meditative and therapeutic approach that bridges
body and psyche through expressive movement, inviting descent
into the body and psyche within a safe environment. Exploring
body-level responses provides a bridge to the unconscious. Through
presentation, natural movement, and sharing we will rediscover
the light in the darkness.
Please bring a dream figure — or your sense of a person in your life,
past or present — who inspires you!
