Spring Series: Grounded Connection- Somatics in Nature

Our time spent together will invite spaciousness and curiosity. We will tune into our senses, learn and practice somatic safety exercises, and deepen relationship with Earth community. The breadth of invitations will include body-based somatic safety practices that you can do anywhere, landscape-based somatic safety practices that tend the nervous system in relationship with Earth, mindfulness practices, and meditations.
Access information: walking on uneven surfaces, up to a mile in distance, and potential exposure to stinging & biting insects and ticks and plants that could cause skin irritation and disease. Meditation, mindfulness, and somatic safety & containment exercises can be activating depending on your body’s experience. All practices are optional and we will review how to listen to our bodies' yes's and no's.
Please email Alexa White at [email protected] to share any access needs at least 3 days before each session.
There will be paper waiver and photo release at sign in in the nursery. The waiver is mandatory for participation and the photo release is optional.

No one turned away for lack of funds!
In a practice of community care, if you are feeling sick, please take care of your body and of the health of others and do not attend. Refunds are offered up until 24 hours before the start of the event.

You can participate in one session or come to multiple. While each session will offer a foundation for somatic safety practices, skills & tools will layer and spiral back as the year goes on. Possible experiences may include and will become more accessible with repeated practice:

-deepening relationship, grounding, and connection with Earth, self, and human community

-relaxation, unwinding, and safety in your body

-being delighted by the magic of the world around us

-opportunities for wonder, awe, curiosity, and play

-sharing tools & resources for mutual aid and community organizing
