About this Event
Authentic Movement is an awareness practice in which there is a mover and a witness. The mover moves with eyes closed or slightly opened and attention directed inward. The witness practices non-judgmental observation. During a session, the mover responds to inner sensations, emotions, images -- whatever surfaces in their internal experience. The witness sits to the side of the space and pays attention to their own internal experience while observing the physical journey of the mover. The focus of the witness is self-awareness rather than evaluation or interpretation of the mover’s experience.
After moving and witnessing, both can record or further explore any aspect of the journey in writing and/or drawing.
In the end, they have time to share if they wish. Care is taken that both mover and witness speak from their own internal experiences rather than from a judging or evaluative point of view
Authentic Movement cultivates a contemplative frame of mind, clarity of perception, and personally enhancing movement. Participants are often surprised, delighted, and amazed by the diversity and wealth of their experiences as both movers and witnesses.

Sky Mother Temple is on private property.
Our address is 4205 Elk Drive, Hood River, Oregon, 97031 it does show up on maps. However, our drive is a bit hidden. If you are heading South on Methodist you drive past Coyote, and we are the next road to the right. The Elk dr. sign is on the left, and you can look for the white flag on the corner. Go past the house with the black fence around it and we are the next house, white-ish siding with a grey metal roof. At the end of the pavement, you can park in the roundabout and off the road in the gravel. Sky Mother Temple is the first white structure.
