We are beings in bodies, part of the natural earth.
We are natural beings, even when we forget, even when the systems encourage the forgetting of this inherent nature.
What would it be like to remember our belonging in nature, our relationship to ecosystems?
What would it be like to give attention to our textures, our sounds, our rhythms, our shapes of existence?
How could this offer another lens to nurture wellbeing that is whole, relational, collective, and contextual?
If you are curious about these questions and want to explore them with others – come and join this in-person therapy group! Guided by different therapy approaches, we will use art-making prompts, body-movement practices, creative play and reflective discussions to nurture our wellbeing by:
- Nourishing our capacity to stay with present moment experiences
- Honouring all the different ways we respond to life’s awes and aches
If you have more questions, email Dean – ddavis@ocadu.ca
Hope you’ll join us in tending to our full body beings – slowly, curiously, compassionately.
