We are living in dis-quietening times. Much of our sense of what is ordinary is perturbed and our usual ways of connecting with each other are disrupted. Even so, how do we settle ourselves and our down time more nourishing? There are biological 'prompts' we can work with to help us come to a place of quiet radiance. Slowing down is counter cultural and at first may feel counter intuitive. Especially after a lifetime of working hard to stay 'on top' of everything.
About your facilitator
Rachel Blackman
Rachel is a daughter, sister, wife, step mother and proud aunty, originally from Australia, living in Brighton UK.
She is a somatic educator, somatic coach, trainer, Feldenkrais practitioner, artist, theatre maker, and mentor.
She trains coaches to work with the body as an intelligent instrument, creates courses and classes which bring us home to biological intelligence and the creative, generative principle which is alive in all organic life.
Rachel honours the traditional owners of the land of her birth:
Her ancestors settled on Yuggera land (now Brisbane) and on the lands of the Eora (Sydney). But the place she spent most of her childhood, the Bunjalung territories, in the subtropical rainforests by the sea, is where she feels her greatest sense of belonging.
She hopes to return one day.
