Permission to Let Go: Playfulness and Free Choices in Mindfulness
Event Information
About this event
Speaker: Lauren Pellettieri, LCSW RYT-200, PACT Clinician
In this talk, I will explore the role of playfulness and free choices in mindfulness and movement practice, also examining how these principles apply to our lives in general. We'll take a mind-body approach to what happens when we give ourselves liberty to move and explore; discuss why this can be really hard to do (especially as adults!); and reflect on ways to facilitate this with ourselves and others. Experiential exercises will be offered to help us examine our relationship to playfulness and ourselves.
