This is a series of linked workshops to explore how we inhabit our bodies as well as our environment; both are ‘home’, yet we rarely connect the two. The body is the medium through which we experience ourselves and the landscape. Body awareness is a key component in developing a new relationship to our environment. This is an experiential course, with exercises to develop internal and external maps and landscapes, deepening a sense of place and relationship. Working with the senses, breath, awareness and movement, participants get in touch with the ecology of the body. The course material is profound and can bring about changes in our attitudes towards ourselves and the world we live in.
Inspired by the landscape of the Vale of White Horse, the course takes place in the heart of the natural environment. The material draws on a number of sources, including yoga, authentic movement, mindfulness, experiential anatomy and the natural sciences to bring you closer to yourself and your environment. Working alone, in pairs and in the larger group, the course takes you on a journey from the beginnings of the earth, via personal stories and experience, to reclaim a lost wisdom of people and place. Some of the work takes place out of doors.

within the human body’ – John O’Donohue
