Freedom of Movement

Freedom of Movement

Do you have persistent or recurrent pain or tension patterns?

You’re invited to an experiential evening:

  • Cultivating awareness of what is contributing to your body expressing pain and tension (these may have been under the level of awareness) 
  • Discussing the role of the autonomic nervous system and learning ways to effect it to bring a greater sense of ease, curiosity and safety in your body 
  • Create freedom of movement patterns in your body  

Harness the power of awareness to make shifts that will significantly affect how you feel.

  • Notice when you’re not feeling good -what is the state of your mind, your body your emotions (notice judgements and beliefs)
  • Enhance your interoception (the felt sense within you) 
  • Explore granular movements: notice bracing and holding patterns and any tendency to push through sensations of pain, tension and discomfort 
  • Develop a relationship of compassion with your body 
  • PAUSE to feel connection between your parts as you move and breathe 
  • Grow awareness of the positive shifts
