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.
