Re-Imagining Relationship (Introduction): Body, movement, myth and life

From mitochondria to muscles, mycelium to mars, biologically, psychically, metaphysically and beyond, humans are interwoven in a web of relationship before, during and beyond this human life….

As Thich Nhat Hanh says – If we combine the prefix “inter” with the verb “to be,” we have a new verb, “inter-be.” To inter-be and the action of interbeing reflects reality more accurately. We inter-are with one another and with all life.

This nine-month journey is an invitation to explore interbeing through the container of an age-old myth running in the background of European culture, ripe and ready for inquiry, disruption and re-imagining. Join us as together we explore archetypal patterns inherited in the past, unconscious in the present and ripe for reimagining in a future we can all relate in, with and to.

Enter a story where characters who embody the senses in unique, awkward and inspiring ways become guides and supportive archetypes for meeting ourselves and others freshly in these tumultuous times. Through exploring and integrating energies previously labeled masculine and feminine, we can freshly perceive and experience latent potentialities of all human beings regardless of gender labels, ideas of right and wrong, good and bad, updating old habits of relatedness.

How might we listen more deeply, see more clearly, move a little gently and experience freshly our infinite capacities to be human’s kinding?

As AI spreads into every interface and action, humans are being called to expand sensorily and instinctually in equal or greater proportions, regardless of age, gender, or stage of life. This offering brings a soulful and somatic approach to relationship as the most rigorous spiritual practice known to human’s kinding.

Each month includes:

• two-hour experiential session
• perceptual and somatic-based practices for everyday life
• email follow ups
• an invitation to be held in a safe and coherent container

This is an invitation to gently bring awareness into unexplored and possibly unquestioned areas of experience, that keep us mired in outdated patterns of relatedness.

Join us, bring your curiosity, and bring a friend!
