🕊 Talk – 2:45pm:
'Why might embodiment be important to health and wellbeing?'

Embodiment is widely used across wellbeing, psychotherapy, movement, spiritual practice and other healing contexts. It invites us to deepen our awareness of the body its sensations, feelings, imagery, and gestures.
In this session, Penny will share ways to access embodied experience through imagination, sensory perception, and movement, and will explore the importance of containment and integration when working somatically.
A gentle, powerful invitation to reconnect with the wisdom of the living body.
