The Embodied Spirit

Led by Gary Barrett, Tom Darnall, and Ward Bauman

$395

This weekend intensive will introduce practices designed to sensitize us to the body’s subtle movements and mechanics and to develop in us an awareness of the spiritual energy that is always moving and animating us. Our exploration will include the ancient practice of Chi-Kung (Qi-gong) as well as contemporary mindfulness practices which focus on integrating movement, breath and sound. The kinesthetic freeing of the restrictions and limitations that we all habitually impose on our psyche and our bodies opens us to the presence of the spirit within. The retreat is grounded in meditation practices and teachings on the spiritual context in which we “live and move and have our being” (Acts 17).
