Event description
Come sink into your body-wisdom as a way to explore your feelings and desires in response to the challenging and re-aligning times we are living through.
Using the mode of InterPlay we will evoke the notional spiral developed by the original seeders of The Work That Reconnects and Deep Ecology (John Seed, Pat Fleming, Joanna Macy and Arne Ness).
We invite you to Play, Dance, Create Stories and Claim your Voice.
Experience Connection, Creativity, Authenticity and Fun.
InterPlay (created by Phil Porter and Cynthia Winton-Henry) is the practice of living in the moment by moving, dancing, telling stories and creating song as a means to access our bodywisdom. InterPlay can hold profound depths and also take us to light and easeful places.
In EarthPlay we will use InterPlay to remind us that we are an interconnected part of nature and that this awareness in humans is essential to the future of the planet. We will explore ourselves as emotional beings in a period of ecological crisis, reflect on where we fit in the story of the universe, and share what it means for us in this period of adaptation to a changing world. We're not looking to come up with answers but we may find some insights for the way ahead.
EarthPlay is for anyone who is concerned about how to navigate the climate catastrophe – including artists and activists, environmentalists and dreamers, scientists and people who practice spiritually to promote peace and calm … and your friends! In other words, EVERYONE is welcome!
Places are limited, so book early! Early bird discount available until 18th of July.
