Move with the Wisdom of the Elements
This is a 1.5 hour workshop, offered once a month by Dr. Maryam Wootan, Acupuncturist and Polarity Therapist at Wild Heart Center, Wallkill, NY.
For the first hour, we will connect with the five Ayurvedic elements: ether, air, fire, water and earth. Using theater warm up exercises, we will explore the theories of the five elements with our body and voice. Each element has a positive and a negative pole and by connecting to the neutral space we can bring those polarities into balance. We also connect with the Chinese five elements as they relate to each season and the changes in Nature. We will explore the theories with an experiential approach, sensing, feeling and awareness. At the end of the hour, we will go out into the elements, and connect with the magical landscape of Wild Heart by the lake, to explore our connection with Nature directly in it. My hope is to create a safe space where we can experiment and share with one another, creating an ongoing momentum to help one another heal, grow and learn.
