Mood Board for tomorrow’s Movement Meditation + Dance :: The 360 Emergence 🪷
Compassion is both a quality + a skill.
Compassion can be evoked + cultivated.
Compassion is a feeling thing,
Not a thinking thing.
Our capacity for compassion is being called upon now more than ever.
So, we come together to practice.
To embody + become.
Through movement + stillness.
Happening tomorrow | 4.25 | 7P

All are Welcome, especially the tender hearted.

My friends, this Thursday's Movement Meditation + Dance :: The 360 Emergence will be held from the lens of Mindful Self-Compassion.
This is the art + practice of holding our most tender, fragile, and perhaps even unwanted, parts of ourself with fierce love.
I only teach from what's alive for me in the moment.
My trust in common humanity is that this theme will hold something for you, too 🪷

toward oppressive mass suffering,
the roots of suffering,

Injustice anywhere
is a threat to justice everywhere.
We are caught in an
inescapable network of mutuality,
tied in a single garment of destiny.
Whatever affects one directly,
affects all indirectly.

I’m already over it.
We have bit over a month left in this year, and I’m already seeing the ploys and messaging for self-improvement.
Ways to sculpt my body, develop my mind, deepen my spirituality.
The game of playing upon our never enough-ness to feed more consumerism.
As I curate this months offerings, I’m feeling clear that these are not spaces to make anyone ‘better.’
I’m not interested in feeding narratives that we need anything at all to slip into our inherent worthiness.
However, I am deeply fascinated with carving spaces for ourselves to attend and befriend all that is here.
All we are digesting and carrying.
Space to feel.
To move what wants to be moved.
To lay to rest what needs to rest.
Room to allow our creative, wild, intuitive nature to unfurl.
Together.
"What if the question is not why am I so infrequently the person I really want to be,
but why do I so infrequently want to be the person I really am?"
