body and breath as symbol
The early Greeks used the word telesma to refer to an object containing powerful properties and beneficial to the one holding it. During this workshop, participants will dream share focusing specifically on symbols that have powerfully expressed themselves during our dreams. We’ll take plenty of time for writing and reflection on the importance of your dream symbol, image, or inscription. Reflective questions will be offered as a springboard for journaling and contemplation to uncover your meaningful connection with the symbol or image for your talisman.
We’ll take this supportive information and through movement and breath, explore the physical, sensory, and energy of our personal talisman. Drawing from intuitive expression, body awareness, and how breath informs the shape of our inner and outer life, we discover and embody our talisman, integrating its meaning and mythos.
This dream sharing, reflection, and creative embodiment process will give you a greater relationship with your dreams and your inner talisman that recalls your strength, courage, and spirit.
Wear comfortable clothing allowing for full-range of movement explorations. Participants of all physical abilities are welcome with movements being adaptable. Please bring a journal, notebook, or sketchpad for reflection. Virtual, 3-hours • 45
