SUMMARY:Body Practices for Eco-Grief
DESCRIPTION:Join somatic practitioner and coach Emily Stewart where the west and east forks of the Eno River meet. We will explore body-based practices to be present to ‘eco-grief’ – the sense of loss or fear we feel for our rapidly changing climate. Where the waters converge is a beautiful place to move this fear through the body. Together\, we will share what sustains us in these turbulent times\, what we are grieving\, and what brings us joy or hope. Come open to connecting with your body\, one another\, and the earth. Parents of young children are especially welcome. Emily’s 9- year-old will be there with snacks and games to keep the kids engaged while the adults practice.
