More on Moving Dreams
An Articulate Body is a wellspring, a surprising find, a tuning fork vibrating towards what is stirring. Supporting, not suppressing, movement choices and movement intentions, an Articulate Body sees shape shifting as questing for authenticity like the river ribboning her way towards the sea.
There are many ways to approach our dreams. As we move our dreams, we draw from the wisdom of the body, seeking to cultivate trust in both psyche and soma to arrive at new forms of expression. This offering takes its cue from Authentic Movement, which is based on the work of Mary Whitehouse, Janet Adler, Marion Woodman, and Tina Stromsted, among others. Together, we’ll host the dream by inviting the dream into the space through the telling or naming of it. This could be a lengthy dream, something very short or fragmentary, or simply an image. Once we’re grounded in space and the dream has been invited in, time will be given to move the dream. At the end of the allotted time, you, as the dreamer/mover, will have an opportunity to speak about your experience, and I, the witness, will offer feedback based on what was seen and felt. This is a subtle yet potent practice.
