Marlborough Ecstatic Dance with Cacao - Magic of Mantra
Details
Tickets at https://www.eventbrite.com/o/just-be-sound-movement-therapy-45494234923 Join us for this Ecstatic Dance Journey with live djembe throughout and mantra singing before and after. Sitting in circle, you'll be guided through a short centring practice, with an invitation to scan the body, emotions and mind. This practice is an oppportunity to bring more presence to your experience and to connect more deeply with your self and your heart. As we move into our cacao ceremony, we pass our cacao around the circle with love, before practicing gratitude and setting intentions together. We’ll begin our movement journey together with a little guidance to warm up. The invitation is to disconnect the mind and connect with the body freely, without self-judgement or fearing judgement from others. Movement is conscious, intuitive and spontaneous as you allow the vibrations of the sound to resonate in whichever way feels right for you. Each dance journey is different, with the music an eclectic mix of different genres. You'll be invited to be curious with your exploration of your body and movements, to bring moment by moment awareness to what's moving through you. The evening will close with a sound bath Alison - Just BE Sound and Movement Therapy is run by Alison Heaslewood who qualified in Sound and Movement Therapy with the British Academy of Sound Therapy. She is also the founder of Ecstatic Dance Berkshire. Following a five year episode of chronic pain in her twenties and a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, she turned to alternative methods of healing, including Sound Therapy. Along with sound, movement was instrumental in her full recovery. She has been supported on her spiritual path by cacao, meditation and connecting to nature, and has been continually called to explore deep practices of surrender and awareness. With five years vocal training she has discovered the power of the voice to heal and brings soothing vocals into her sound sessions along with other percussion. She creates nurturing, relaxing and safely held spaces for anyone seeking a space to Just BE. https://www.instagram.com/soundandmovementtherapy To read reviews: https://www.facebook.com/JustBEsoundandmovementtherapy
