A big theme that emerged in yesterday’s workshop was that ⚡️⚡️embodiment is relational⚡️⚡️

The two women captured here, are exploring their core-distal relationship, that is, the sense of their structure, pushing out from their spine in 360 degrees, whilst simultaneously sensing a whole body tensional pull back in toward their centre. And most beautifully, they’re sensing and modulating this internal relationship, moment-to-moment, through their relationship to each other (and the ever present ground).

These tension-compression forces have been at play since conception, as an emerging embryo in a fluid filled sac, our structures growing and folding at different rates and different densities giving rise to a balance of push and pull forces across multiple scales, as a foetus sensing itself through the resistance of the uterine wall, and the developing infant vertically unfolding away from the ground and the relentless tug of gravity. And we go throughout life attracted and repelled in relation to ideas, places, spaces, others…and with others we may go onto conceive, and the whole thing continues to spiral…

Relationship brings us into being, endlessly.

and 🧡 you and thank you for being both the container and the space within this weekend. Can’t wait to join forces with you again in the spring 🌱

Metaphors—whether visual or verbal—are among the most powerful ways to shift perception and bring an abstract idea into an embodied experience.

It’s argued that all language is metaphorical, woven into our speech like an invisible thread, blinding us to the fact that we only ever understand something ‘as’ something else. In this sense, metaphor is quite unremarkable and ordinary, and hardly registers in our awareness.

However…metaphors that deepen our sense of embodiment have a distinct power. Moving us toward a greater feeling of depth and connection.

How is that?

Perhaps it’s because metaphor, along with emotional and social intelligence, bodily attunement, and an openness to novelty, is valued and strongly associated with the right hemisphere (unlike the left, which tends toward literalism, abstraction and stasis), and it is THAT which underwrites the ‘a-ha’ moments that alter our perception, change our perspective and deepen our consciousness; the fact that we are experiencing the part of our brain that permits a richer, unified, embodied reality.

Guess what the visual metaphor in this photo represents…

If I could sum up my approach to movement, I would say it’s grounded in:

Awareness, attunement, attention, connections, coordinations, curiosity, compassion, coherence, emergence, exploration, embodiment, enquiry, dynamics, depth, development, feeling, force transmission, health, healing, integration, intelligence (of body), listening, pathways, perception, patterns, process, pacing, qualities, relationality, roundedness, rhythm, regulation, resonance, subtlety, softness, soft strength, space, spirality, sensing, somatic, textures, trust, yielding, variation, wholeness

There’s something exquisite and deeply healing in simply sensing—without trying to put words to it or overlay it onto existing ideas.

And there’s something equally exquisite and healing in making meaning of your sensations through vocabulary and metaphor: when language, as a social tool, reaches deep within you, allowing a flowering of your inner experience—before reaching outward again, like an explorer returning from distant lands, eager to share the treasures they’ve found.

Prepping for a workshop on interoceptive awareness, its relationship to the right and left hemisphere, and how this gives rise to perception AND perspective of who we are and how we see the world.

We need to sense our body AND make meaning of those sensations through frameworks and narratives. We need left-right, right-left, top-down, bottom-up; the coming together of oppositional forces to give rise to the creative act of becoming, experiencing, and interpreting the self in relationship to the world.

Look forward to exploring these ideas with and her tiny&vast cohort tomorrow ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
