Deeply Listening Body Retreat

University Of Limerick, Ireland, August 4th-8th 2012

A Healing and Creative Movement Retreat.

This retreat will focus on the study of the healing and meditative practices of T’ai Chi and Qi Gong, as well as offering movement/sound/and listening improvisations and strategies. The practices are designed to enhance our skills in mindfulness, listening, and attuning to our bodies and voices as instruments of creativity and well-being. We will practice techniques that help us to release stress, and to quiet and nurture ourselves as we build energy and experience the philosophy of the Tao, the ancient Chinese wisdom teachings of balance and interconnectedness. There will be time and space for individual and group creativity and playfulness to emerge. The retreat is designed for participants to have the opportunity to be with oneself and to also have the support and camaraderie of the group. There will be blocks of time when we will be practicing in silence (no talking mode) and other times for spirited verbal interaction and sharing. Additionally there will be daily themes based on principles from the teachings that can help focus our attention and invite new insights
