After each workshop
It's important to give yourself space and time to process and integrate what has emerged. The invitation is to reflect, be with and go gently after each workshop. This may look like:
- connecting with loved ones
- spending time in nature
- moving your body
- going for a nap
- watching a favourite show or listening to music
- writing/drawing/singing
- making something
- or doing anything that feels nourishing
If you're running late or having tech issues
Please send me an email before the workshop start time to let me know if you're running a little late. We are a small group - to honour the intention of building connection and to ensure I can focus on facilitating the session, you won't be able to join the live workshop if you arrive more than 15 minutes after the start time.
Workshop Recording
Each workshop will be recorded. I will aim to email you the recording within 48 hours of each workshop. The recordings will be sent to each person who has signed up for the series.
And lastly, a reminder of our Gathering Agreements:
This is a co-created space to model the world we yearn to live in through practicing together. By participating in this series live or via replays, we agree to practice:
- Arriving and staying as our nuanced selves, being in choice throughout as to how/whether we participate
- Being with “what is here now” as it emerges
- Going gently, understanding that embodiment practice can be activating, and honouring our individual capacity and our edges
- Creating and allowing space & silence to feel into our bodies and process without urgency
- Inviting each other into consent, not making assumptions and, when sharing, offering content warnings where necessary
- Relating to each other with respect, care, kindness and belonging, respecting confidentiality of each other’s shares and holding each other in our dignity
