A Body Moment: Recent Episodes
Claire Pritchard
Beginning with a warm up involving passing energy through our body, this episode focuses on using our body to help us unpack and develop our understanding of the concepts of strength, masculinity/femininity, and others. (You may notice some birdsong in the background. A tiny, fortuitous bonus feature in this episode!)
How do you move through life? For most of us, the answer involves our two feet! This episode takes the everyday movement of walking, and allows us some deep insight into what our body is doing and revealing to us as we walk. If you fancy, pop on some shoes and your headphones, and take this episode on a stroll around your neighbourhood!
In this episode, we get to know our bodies a little more, specifically what our bodies like and dislike. Initially, we do this through a warm up which involves awakening the body with touch. We then progress to an exercise to empower our bodies in making choices, discovering moments of resonance and resistance.
This episode is an adventure in geography. To warm up, we consider the geography of our own bodies, adding knowledge to our map of self. Then, we move on to an guided movement meditation which considers familiar scenery and environments, and pauses to observe the effect these environments have on ourselves.
A brief introduction to the ideas behind movement meditation, and a "how to guide" for engaging with the episodes to come!
