“The body keeps the score: If the memory of trauma is encoded in our senses, in muscle tension, and in anxiety, then the body must also be involved in the healing process.” Bessel Van Der Kolk, Author and Scientist Researcher from the book 'The Body Keeps The Score'

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Join us for a 60 minute morning somatic practice designed to help you release tensions and charge up for the day leaving with simple self-care tools to support your highs and lows.

Inspired by the philosophy of Gabrielle Roth, founder of 5Rhythms Dance, this session focuses on how you feel, not how you look. You’ll be guided through a blend of mindful movements, gentle vocal release techniques, guided relaxation and simple foot self-massage using acupressure.

There is no pressure to move in any particular way.

No experience, no flexibility or rhythm needed.

Just wear comfortable clothes, bring water and something warm for relaxation.

After the session, enjoy a cuppa tea kindly provided by Vivobarefoot and Better Food Company.
