The Art of Embodying Elderhood: An Introduction to 8 Somatic Wisdom Portals

Join us for an introduction to 8 somatic portals -- inquiry-based and embodied resources -- for meeting this time of great transition.

Calling all earthing elders!!“Elderhood does not arrive at a certain age. It is an embodiment which needs to be cultivated through conscious engagement and reverence for the cycles of life…. especially the often missed rites of passage of youth and adulthood. Conscious eldering is not a given, but rather a daily practice, which calls us to grow down to grow up.” 				~ Penny AllportAs we find ourselves in the midst of a great transition, which may feel groundless and shaky, many of us long for containers - sturdy and fleshy, gutsy and gracious, grounded and spacious - enough to hold our species in a time of deep transformation. With our brains in need of an upgrade, our hearts long for coherent and tangible practices to navigate this initiatory passage with gravity and grit. Join us for an introduction to the 8 somatic portals that offer inquiry-based and embodied resources to meet opportunities for adulting (growing up), sometimes missed — by meeting the present with vulnerability, curiosity and a fierce commitment to future generations and the earth.Many questions arise:•	Will we engage in this global initiation to restore our species to its humble place in the mystery of all creation? •	Will we accept descent and dissolution with embodied reverence for every living being, responsible to — and for — one another? •	Will we meet this time with curiosity and interest for repair and care for the life-ing and death-ing required of us? These portals make no promises yet offer a real opportunity for initiation — both self and community-engaged. We can become the earthed and embodied elders we are called to be!Join us Tuesday, June 7th, 2022 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. (Pacific Time) with optional ½ hour after – 9:00 p.m., for deepening connections and spacious inquiryCost (sliding scale): $35 - $22On Zoom in real time – no recording available.No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
