About this Event
We are often surrounded by things that encourage us to think of our bodies in terms of what they're not. The things we can't do, the ways we don't look and so on. In this workshop we'll flip the script by celebrating all of the uniquely amazing things that our bodies can do!
Through a combination of movement, meditation and affirmations we will build a sense of connection and deep appreciation of our senses, our bodies and all of their amazing abilities, arriving into a place of self-kindness and gratitude.
Over the course of the workshop we will move through individual, paired and group activities, all approached with a spirit of curiosity, kindness and play. Everything is adaptable to your own abilities and comfort and there's never anything to get "right".
Whether you're completely new to this kind of workshop or already have an interest in wellbeing practices, you'll be welcomed into a supportive environment where everything is introduced gradually and participation is always by invitation.
Some activities involve physical contact with other participants, always with clear guidance and consent. Alternatives are always available, and you're encouraged to participate in whatever way feels comfortable for you.
You don't need any previous experience of meditation, movement or mindfulness, just curiosity, some comfortable clothes and a willingness to celebrate your amazing body!
Here's what people have said after previous workshops:
"Really loved the structure, the range and variety of movement, and Robin's guidance was gentle, clear and made me feel safe and held."
"Very grounding and did not make me feel self conscious which these kind of things have a tendency to do."
"Discovered these workshops by accident... they've been so enjoyable, relaxed and friendly. They have also helped enormously with issues around self consciousness and being 'seen'"
"I found I enjoyed the movement much more than I expected. I was a bit out of my comfort zone with the touch at first, but with a bit of humour it actually felt lovely!"
"Robin held a beautiful space for those who attended… it felt intimate and safe to be yourself."
