Join Lewis Mehl-Madrona and Barbara Mainguy in an exploration of story and relationship. A Hindu mystic once described one’s body as one’s life partner. He said the relationship with your body is one of the most important and challenging that you will have. This workshop will explore this relationship and look at it from western eyes and indigenous eyes. It will tackle the theft of one’s body by the pharmaceutical and medical industries, the contamination by the food industry. How do you truly love and respect your body? How can you think about the relationship? It will touch on the ideas of what consciousness is and where it is located. Does it belong to the community? How does the relationship with the body change with the life of the person from the cradle to the grave. It will look at the relationship of the breath to functioning well and to the individual’s relationship with breathing. We live in breathless times and it takes its toll on body and soul. Come and join us for a fascinating weekend.
