NOVEMBER 5th - 8th: OUR ANNUAL RETREAT WEEKEND

This year the gathering of The Thinking Body – The Feeling Mind® community – (newcomers, practitioners, teachers) in Idyllwild will be the weekend of Thursday November 5th through Sunday November 8th.

We have been invited to use the New Peace Center Auditorium at Buckhorn Camp. The Peace Center is like a Dream Space for the The Thinking Body – The Feeling Mind® teachers – with a sprung floor, endless walls, utter quiet and privacy and the whole space is ours for the long weekend.

Accommodations will feel like going to camp when you were a kid, if you did. The food they are planning sounds plentiful and wonderful. The town of Idyllwild is five minutes up the road for anyone wanting the amenities it offers.

TBFM: Our Current Body Focus

We began our in depth consideration of The Shoulder Girdle last year in Idyllwild and continued the refined exploration throughout last fall and winter.

In the spring we furthered our embodied research linking The Shoulder Girdle and its function to The Psoas in order to understand their symbiotic connection - a connection that makes us fully alive especially in terms of body movement, breath and health.

There was/is new technique created that has made beautifully significant changes for so many of us in the community. Our current focus is an understanding of the three dimensional thigh and its connectivity to the pelvis. More new TBFM technique has been created.

Ultimately we are on an inner journey (that manifests itself in outer functionality) toward an understanding of how The Shoulder Girdle, The Psoas and The Legs influence and support our existence and our ability to freely live inside of human possibility.
