Resting in Rhythm

So much of our lives are lived in our heads. Our minds are busy places,moving backwards into the past and forwards into the future, thinking,planning, remembering and anticipating. It’s easy to see how we can get caughtup in our heads and lose touch with our bodies and all they have to offer us —their wisdom, their energy and their ability to bring us back to the presentmoment.

Our bodies are always here.

When we bring our attention to the body, we open up our experience of thepresent moment. Through breath, body and music, we’ll explore different beatsand rhythms, allowing the music to support us to let go, move intuitively andconnect with our own rhythm.

Gentle guidance will be given to ground and awaken the body, bringing ourattention to different parts of ourselves. From there, you are invited toexplore — perhaps simply enjoying the freedom of your dance, deepening yourconnection with body and breath, or both.

We may notice thoughts, moods or frustrations as we move. Rather thangetting involved, we simply notice and return to the movement, the music andthe rhythm, perhaps feeling the support of the ground, finding ease in acontinuous movement or natural pace.

Across our morning together, there will be spaces to pause, connect andslow down — discovering the body as a place of presence, expression and rest.

No experience is necessary. All fitness levels welcome. Bring your senseof curiosity and wonder as we move together in community, in the beautifulspace of the sanctuary

Rest in your rhythm. Move from there.
