Radiance of Being: a 5Rhythms Workshop on the Polarities of Presence

This boisterous season of emerging, of flowering and regeneration invites us into a raucous and wild energy of rebirth, a teeming space of beginnings and awakenings. The coming season of summer brings the full blaze of the sun’s heat, and time for connection, celebration and remembering the abundance of our brilliant source of energy. Plants fruit and ripen, the outdoors thrums with activity, the insect world fills the world with the rhythms of life’s endurance. The temperature rises and the nights grow short, inviting us to take rest on cool beaches and immerse ourselves in watery depths of release. We gather around the night fires and BBQs, with practices that celebrate and connect us to the vibrancy of community.

As we approach the summer solstice, we invite you to dance the polarities of the 5Rhythms as we explore each rhythm in it’s endarkened and enlightened expression. This journey of movement, connection, ritual, and integration is offered as a waypoint on your path to the catalyzing, abundant, creative, and enduring energy of rerelease that summer can offer.

ARISE INTO SELF - Light & Shadow

We will be diving into 5Rhythms® primary waves map

Light and Shadow.

Shadows are not bad - Philosophy of 5Rhythms has no Judgment.

When we dance the shadows. when we name whatever is going on.

We give ourselves permission to express something without shame.

All practices of light and shadow prepare us for the possible discomfort of emotions. life cycle & ego work.

Learning to be comfortable with the uncomfortable.

For it is this fear that is keeping us trapped in our safe, natural. neurotic boring work.

Knowing the shadow can reveal our home rhythm.

When we get out of the shadow

we wake up from the trance of unconsciousness.

we will awake in the body, in the heart, and in the mind as we move through each element to explore the depths of each energy and its shadow. Where we are stuck in inertia, rigidity, and confusion, and when we are spaced out and numb.

To recognize ourselves when we lose connection and shut down. When life is presenting us the change, resistance, and chaos. Which is all-natural order. How can we move to another side, and come back, to our true selves, who we truly are. 

To own and embrace all parts of ourselves that we neglect and push away.

The 5Rhythms map will navigate and teach us to unleash the stuck energies, find the ground and center in our bodies. 

Balance the inward and outward energies, inner listenings, intuition and fluidity, focus, surrender, creative freedom, and connection to the body, heart, mind, soul, and spirit.
