Healing Your Emotions Through Play: A Psychosomatic Journey
WHAT: Learn to befriend your most challenging emotions through laughter and play with others. A seven month playshop series for adults.
WHERE: Zoom.
WHEN: October 2021 – April 2022, every second Wednesday evening of the month. 630 – 800 pm Pacific time. First class October 13th, 2021.
HOW: Each class entails meditation, collaborative improv singing and theatre games, collaborative play with personal emotion stories, and discussion of the gifts of the featured emotion in a supportive and compassionate environment. A small group allows us to go deep – maximum 8 participants.
WHY: Collaborative improv is about playful movement, collectivity, and gentle silliness. Play and laughter facilitate learning and connection. The emotion work is based on the teachings of Karla McLaren (www.karlamclaren.com) with the underlying belief that all emotions are necessary and important to inform our actions and our lives. Note: this course can be a potent and playful support for trauma healing, although it is not meant as a replacement.
PRICE: First class free. After that, introductory price of $15-25 per class or $80 -140 (sliding scale) for the playshop series.
Still not sure? I welcome you to connect with me for a free 30 minute consultation to see if the course is a fit for you.
