Grief Ritual – online

original artwork : Maria Louceiro

Grief ritual in movement
Online
Friday 27.09
10am-12 BST (Lisbon/London time)

A dedicated held time for you to grieve and praise, to mourn and dance all the colours stirred and revealed.

Whether you are grieving the state of the world, someone dear to your heart, honouring a gate in your life,… there is place for you and your emotions.

We will circle together, honouring individual and collective grief, with emphasis on body-wisdom and presence, more than storytelling.

What to expect : movements and dance, with and without music, guided and free, some sounding, some journaling, some humour too. Lots of space for your own process and rhythm.

Blending contemplative practices, Authentic Movement and Open Floor movement practice, to create a safe explorative container.

With gentleness, loving kindness and reverence for what is.

Reservations : anais@anaistamen.com or telegram @openheartsdance (early reservations are always very appreciated).

Heart gift : 15-25€ or swap.
If you experience financial scarcity, please contact me and feel welcome for a smaller contribution.

What to bring :

  • Water to drink
  • Your journal if you have one, some paper, a pen, some colours
  • Any comforting object (special blanket, pillow, precious stone to hold in your hand, etc…).
  • Elements of nature – more info about that when you register (so don’t wait for the last minute ! )

Preparing your dance space :

You will need :

  • A space vast enough to move in the comfort of your home, in nature, or any other undisturbed safe place
  • A computer. It’s much better to connect via your computer than your phone to have access to all the features of Zoom. Phone is ok if that’s what you have access to.
  • A good soundbox, sound-system, or wireless headphones
  • Comfy layers of clothes you enjoy to move in and with.

Looking forward to sharing this space with you.

Equinox : autumn ritual

EQUINOX
Autumn ritual for womb carriers & womyn
held by Anaïs Tamen & Rivi Marcus

Thursday 21.09.23
10am-6pm
Monte Maravilhas (São Martinho das Amoreiras)

*

EQUINOX : a day of passage, a gate to feel the echoes of nature’s changes within us, the inner & outer transitions, the continuous dance of the elements.

The winds are changing, the air is getting heavier with moist. The land is at harvest and our body is moving slower.

An invitation to pause and create space within to welcome this new season.

We invite you to this ritual, in togetherness and connected solitude, to witness each others in our inner movements, through dance, grief work and nature time, honoring what wants to be harvested.

Reservation necessary.
