Opening To Joy

Joy ~
It’s the one feeling we’d all like more of
And yet it often seems hard to find
And when it is possible, we don’t always choose to let it in..

This weekend, we’ll see if we can’t simplify our relationship with joy
Welcoming more of it into our bodies and hearts
In the midst of whatever else is going on in our lives

We’ll invite space and creativity,
Gratitude and generosity
To help us open and expand
Even in the company of suffering

And we’ll strengthen our capacity for wise innocence
That we might be more curious, more willing
More able to live in the moment with imagination and delight
Open to joy, and ready to choose life and love

Wavelength: Ways of Waves (5-Day Intensive)

Tammy will be returning to Boston to teach a 5-day intensive, non-residential workshop on the 5Rhythms Waves.

--

Close your eyes. Feel into sitting on a beach or a boat or a balcony (or any other vantage point), by a lake, a river, the ocean, a pond, a pool… and bring your attention to the waves, small or large, lapping or crashing, and notice the subtle and not so subtle rhythms in each wave. Dip a toe in, or wade to your knees, or dive in head first through the portal of each unique wave, with its individual rhythm, as it dances you, pushes, pulls, and partners with you through a whole Wave, offering an embodied experience of all that each rhythm has to offer you.

In life, as on the dance floor. On the dance floor, as in life.

In this 5-day Waves intensive we will dive into each rhythm and explore it on the surface, in depth and in all the places in between, as we gift ourselves the time and permission to visit and revisit where we are in the now with the many facets of each rhythm.

Wavelength is for the new to the practice and the well-practiced, the beginner mind and the go-ahead blow my mind, the novice, the acolyte, the skeptic, the dreamer, the lover, the dancer, that are parts of each of us waiting to be moved together.

May I ask? Will you have this dance?
