ALUMNI EVENT-Playing Our Way Through Panic to Stretch
This playshop is a space to practice using embodied play practices to support us in moving from panic to stretch. Playing with the creative and embodied practices of movement, sound, storytelling and stillness, can help us release tension and express emotions in non-violent ways, creating more space inside ourselves to tune into our body’s wisdom, and open the mind and heart. Play supports us to reconnect with joy – the energy that sustains and resources us in the darkest hours – and helps us see even the darkness through different eyes.
