Upcoming workshop ‘Medicine Body’ 12th May 1-5pm @ Anamorphic studio @OT301, Overtoom 301 Amsterdam
This workshop is open for people wanting to connect on a deeper level to their own body, heart and mind as well as finding answers to their personal questions in a safe and nurturing environment. By understanding and applying the principles of intention, transformation and manifestation, we will learn how to bring clarity, focus and dreaming vision into any area of our life.
In this workshop we will take a closer look at the relationship between feeling and thinking, consciousness and intuition, Active state (Yang energy) and Receptive state (Yin Energy) to explore various tools for empowering our hearts to be creative, responsive and intelligent. This process will guide us to getting back to the power of our true presence that is deeply rooted in our bodies as a self- healing medicine.
Self-Inquiry, guided movement practice, writing, drawing and hands-on practice are part of the work in order to support us in our exploration of the theme.
