Tending Heart Fires—Finding Magic in the Ashes
Join Mary Abrams & Penny Collinson on a 4-day retreat in NYC.
Heart fires are physical and emotional and can awaken our
needs for tending them so that they keep burning in sustainable
ways. This retreat invites us to gaze and breathe air into our
heart flames and to initiate sacred change. As the fires quiet we
can poke and brush through the embers and ashes, for what we
feel and need, and for what we are ready to discover and learn
from what lies deep in the soft, quiet, darkness...awaiting to rise
again, as a Phoenix of new health, new meanings, hopes, dreams,
and more.
Who's it for?
Movement practitioners who work within themselves, as well as
in teaching, therapeutic, creative and performative contexts.
Please note that this series is suitable for those with prior
experience of in-depth somatic movement processes.
What we will do?
During the 4-days we will use a variety of somatic movement
methods which support deep personal inquiry.
Our practices draw on Continuum,
Authentic Movement, movement improvisation and touch. This
will include solo moving, sounding, mover-witnessing in
partners and as a group, and explorations through writing,
drawing, and speaking. Our days will be spacious.
