Reflective Practice

Do you feel the need to slow down, pause and re-set?

Are you feeling caught up in the manic machine of the modern world?

Is there tension gathering in your belly, back and shoulders that indicates a need to breathe?

Would you like to build your reflective skills, observational muscles and sensitivity to social and ecological processes?

If so, join us for a one-day workshop in embodied reflective social practice.

This one-day workshop explores the question of how we engage with living processes in our lives through a series of embodied and reflective practice activities.

As a way of both doing and being the workshop supports people's inner and outer development through several practical activities based on the themes: observation and attuning to aliveness.

These activities take many forms including but not limited to:

reflective observation that develops intimate encounters with other (both human and more-than-human),
art journalling that develops the capacity to pay attention and to work with living ways of seeing
gentle movement that connects mind, body and breath to support the participant's body observation and awareness
mindfulness meditation enables observation of the mind without reaction and a deeper connection to the present moment

The workshop will be based on experiential activities combined with individual, small group and larger-group reflection processes. It will support a deepened and renewed sense of self and provide an opportunity to practice a new form of individual and collective activism to bring healing to the world.

The ideas in this workshop come from Peter's new book which can be pre-purchased (for an extra $50) or bought at the workshop.
