Description:
The Embodied Life: Freedom Through Awareness
During the Friday Free interactive evening, we will explore the connection between bodily awareness and inner freedom. Moshe Feldenkrais was deeply interested in the possibility of human beings becoming free from self-limiting habits. He saw that the human brain was capable of creating new patterns at any age and predicted many of the recent discoveries of neuroscience.
The Embodied Life(TM) is an approach developed by Russell Delman over the last 35 years. The work stands on three legs: sitting meditation based in Zen, Guided Inquiry based in the Focusing work of Eugene Gendlin and the movement lessons and teachings of Moshe Feldenkrais. Through the practice of "just sitting" we cultivate friendliness with all mind/body phenomena, through Guided Inquiry we grow the ability to skillfully navigate challenging emotional/feeling states and through the movement lessons we de-construct dysfunctional sensory/motor patterns.
Please join me for an evening of conversation and experiential practices. After the introductory talk, your questions and interest will guide the specifics of our time together. Visit www.russelldelman.com for more information, writings, talks and videos.
Enough
These few words are enough
If not these words this breath
If not this breath this sitting here
This opening to the life I have rejected
Again
And again
Until now
Until now
