SANDS of TIME with Deborah Lewin
Easing and loosening the fixed shapes of our story about
‘The Past’, ‘The Present’, ‘The Future’

February 8th, 2025
10:00-5:00pm

Our own past, our own present, our own future are these set in stone? How would it be to soften that which we think we know about them?

Be it in the body, in the emotions, in the mind, or at the soul level, might we consciously loosen those places where we find fixed beliefs? Inviting the ease and fluidity of more spacious possibilities?

As we begin to leave Winter behind and open to the new life of Spring you are invited to explore your experiences of time through embodied guided exercises and free movement exploration.

Time can both seem to stand still, drag its heels, and run away with itself; be open-ended and definite.

In your life, does time flirt with you, challenge you, inform you, push and pull you?

Perhaps you feel your future calling you, or your past pressing in on you.

Over the course of the day, there’ll be time to move in your own space, in pairs and trios; for dancing and reflective inquiry. We’ll be supported by Open Floor Core Movement Resources, a Systemic Constellation lens, and fabulous music! You will also be served tea and treats from Shani Cranston!!

PLEASE BRING:
- layers
- a tea mug & water bottle
- lunch
- and you may wish to bring a journal.

**If you are a local and can host out of town dancers, please reach out to Shauna: info@shaunadevlin.net
