Dear interbeing friends,
This week artist, musician, and movement researcher Jessie Monk returns to host a movement-oriented service about our bodies and the earth.
In times of increasing concern for our earth’s wellbeing, when discourse surrounding this concern is extricated from our bodies to purely political and scientific spheres, how can we allow our bodies to return to sensitivity, to conversation, and to relationship with our earth and its manifestation within us? How can we recognize the spirit of earth in ourselves? And how does this shape our conversation with place, and our mysterious existence within it?
The service will be a deeply embodied inquiry, using the movement language of Gaga to bring us into an exploration of our bodies as dynamic expressions of the earth.
NOTE: This service will be a highly physical inquiry, involving movement/dance. Please wear clothes you feel comfortable moving (and sweating) in. This movement language is suitable and inclusive of all bodies and abilities (including complete beginners) so if it is your first time engaging with this type of practice, we encourage you to be courageous, and re-assure you that it is a practice where one is celebrated both in diving deep, or in slowly dipping their toes in. 🌊🌻
Host: Jessie Monk, Adam
