SOMATIC SPECIAL: Rhythms - Everything is energy with Anja Berg
Wave-like, prickly, vibrating, smooth, grounded, intense. Rhythms of life. Everything is energy.
Energy work as a method can trigger all kinds of ideas and feelings.We often hear; I don’t believe in energy work. However, everything we do needs energy, gives energy, takes energy or has no energy. We know it, yet some of us keep it at arms-length, not ever really getting curious about it. It may feel too big to handle. We might not know where to start befriending ourselves and the world in an energetic sense. Or we may already be very open to everything as energy, but not have many practices for everyday energetic awareness.
I’ve been very curious and would love to share a practice with you.
The practice is layered.
We will start with theory, centering, and becoming close to what we vibe at this moment, how it feels to be you right now. We will play a bit with the movement of your own energy.
Next layer is movement, we take it into full body expression. In the middle of movement practice is a partner exercise where we get to move next to another person to explore how our energy is affected by other humans.
Towards the end of the class is hands-on practice where we will get to notice how energetic rhythms can be picked up on and how that kind of awareness can be used to support both our own body-mind, or the body-mind of another.
We end with what I call integrity practice and a long relaxation.
