Radical Wholeness Weekend Workshop: near Moncton, NB
Although the body is considered to be largely without intelligence, what can be known through its deep wisdom is actually more inclusive, subtle, grounded and vast than anything we could conceptualize in our heads. But we have been encouraged to neglect the body, live in our heads, and undertake a desperate agenda of trying to outthink our circumstances. This exhausting strategy keeps us skittering along the surface of things, never truly connecting with the life around us. Finding your way back home to your body’s vital wisdom, though, is more than a little challenging, because our neurology has been shaped by the disembodied culture we live in. In this workshop, Philip Shepherd will introduce you to a series of simple, gentle, unique practices that help you encounter the habits of disembodiment within yourself that otherwise remain invisible – habits, for instance, that keep us separate from the deeper intelligence of the pelvic bowl. Once you bring those limiting patterns into awareness, they begin to soften and change. As you feel your relationship with your body transform, you feel your relationship with the world anew – discovering nourishment in both. Over the course of our days together you will develop a set of skills that will serve you for a lifetime. For a fuller description of the workshop, please click here.
