"PERMISSION"

 There is a part of our mind that is wired and conditioned to seek permission. As we grow up we seek the permission from the outside, and in our maturity it comes the time to start giving ourselves that permission from the inside. Permission to be ourselves. Permission to move. Permission to feel. Permission to breathe so we can co-create with great mystery our own life experiences, and so there is less space for blame and excuses. 

Being able to feel and express so many different emotions is what makes the human experience so astonishing.

Giving yourself permission to fully experience whatever state you may be in is one of the most cathartic, purifying things you can do.

Emotions are important messengers that give us the answers we long for.

We will immerse deeper into the Flowing Rhythm that supports us in giving ourselves the permission to be and to follow that being.

We will find our roots deeper in the Courage that can ground any fear we have, especially the fear to feel our hearts.

“Sometimes, all you need is permission to feel. Sometimes, what causes the most pain is actually the attempt to resist feeling, or the shame that grows up like thorns around it.” Olivia Laing

MAPS TO ECSTASY

 MAPS TO ECSTASY - From inertia to inspiration

-a 5Rhythms® Workshop with Thierry Francois

"The path to ecstasy is up through 5 levels of consciousness, 5 layers through which energy most naturally flows from purely physical existence to its highest potential." -Gabrielle Roth

We spend a good part of our lives struggling to find out who we are, which prevents us from being fully aligned with our true self. "From Inertia to Inspiration" takes us by the hand to unfold the thread of our own movement, our "feeling", our desire to move from the source of life. From inertia, a place from which to start, then finding the way out of this static state. A step to allow ourselves to move out of inertia into energizing movement. Imitation is a vital part of our path, a way to learn, a catalyst for change. Following this practice gets us moving in the direction of spiritual liberation. Intuition, from deep within, embracing and paying attention to our rooted connection, our creative self. And the simplest way to enhance our intuitive powers is to move with them.�

Imagination to mobilize our natural gifts, our talent, our potential, our realization - all things we are driven to do. Being generous in our imagination.�Inspiration when there is only dancing, no thoughts, no doing, just the dancing, just the moving center. The inspired dance, with the sense of sacredness, ritualistic and with a sense of mystery. A weekend workshop to embody these aspects of ourselves together with other inspired and inspiring human beings. A dance, nothing more, nothing less.

The workshop is led in English. No previous experience required.
