SENSING, LANGUAGE, ACCOMPANIMENT
A SPACE OF PRESENCE
10.30-12.30 Tuesdays, zoom platform
May 20, 27, June 3 [pause]* June 10, 17, 24
with Emma Philbin Bowman, BA, MIAHIP
This space offers an opportunity to gather with others over five Tuesday mornings in May and June. We will create a receptive, responsive field that invites participants to represent and embody ‘more of ourselves’ than we tend to be able to do in our everyday contexts.
By slowing down, offering our presences to one another, and supporting the exploration of nuance, the intention is to bring language and accompaniment to neglected or muted elements in our experience. This process supports our growth into fuller presence, texture and complexity.
This is not group therapy; rather it is an environment of shared, explorative presencing. The space will suit those experienced in inner work (therapy/spiritual practice) who are aware of a deficit of contexts in which they can articulate and sense into phenomena that feel important to them.
'We may fail to connect either with ourselves or with others, and what we are feeling slides away. We may pretend such slippage is unimportant or a normal part of living, and so nullify it or play it down. But somewhere we are left with frustration and perhaps loss, as feelings that carry our most intimate facts and selves remain unborn or undeveloped.'
