The Art of Personal Freedom
Origin — Purpose — Inspiration
Online Course
Personal Freedom
There is plenty of limitations in this life - we are born this bound.
Yet.
At the same time we have un-bounded freedom possible - we are born this free.
This online course tries to give you a felt sensation of freedom-poured-into-form and a taste of the skills needed to steer this life-ship. So we can better discern when to bind and when to free. We will use movement, somatic exploration & yoga, lectures, meditation & reflection.
The practices are based on Embodied Flow Yoga™, BMC, Continuum Movement, Nervous system regulation and purpose work by Animas Valley Institute.
The course is divided into 5 modules based on 3 themes.
ORIGIN
We start from your beginning as an embryo, moving with the rhythm of you as pulsating cells dividing. Through a sequence of developmental movement patterns we then journey towards crawling and walking. How each of us got to upright tells a story. Touching the flesh through movement memory awakens, often through images and emotions. Accessing our pre-verbal history. This can be deeply soothing and perhaps even healing, but also triggering and scary. The body remembers. What possibilities were given? how did we move with what we could access at that time?The more options explored the more possibilities available. As adults we do this work to re-establish a connection to space-body-earth through yielding both passively into earth and space as well as activating our push, pull and reach responses. The aim is to be right here right now. For real.
PURPOSE
Your life purpose. Dharma. Longing. You know the feeling of purpose already. Of course you do. That sense of urgency or calm through your cells and fluids. Many of us still equate purpose with worth. how are we of worth or value to others and the world? As if we need to do to be. Often we journey far in life without questioning how society markets purpose as something to be acquired.
You have felt it plenty of times, but may need to re-commit to feeling-acting on it in your body. Purpose is something we usually try to think our way into understanding. But it seems thinking it isn’t enough. What if we reverse our dominant ways of thinking our way through life and get to know the felt sense of life?
Purpose will reveal itself, in waves of feeling & sensation, and then recognizing that fluctuating state. Fluctuating meaning that purpose is not bound to a specific person, emotion or position. Knowing this state may or may not translate into an ability to put words to that purpose. The words or ability to communicate your purpose to others is not the primary aim of this course. As we feel it we can let it lead us and feel how to navigate. To be it. As opposed to do it. Purpose-be.
INSPIRATION
Your body sends you messages through impulse, sensation, imagery and emotion. Many of these messages are received and then the acting it out is blocked. Our impulse is not carried through by acting it. Every time we do act on our basic impulses we strengthen trust between the different parts of ourselves. Basic impulses are not the same as our programming or conditioning so we will try to notice the difference by tapping into both. As we strengthen our in-house trust our intuition becomes clearer which makes it easier for us to read ourselves and the world - we navigate better. And when we feel at ease in our navigation we become inspired! inspiration seeming to be one of the pillars that purpose and personal freedom rests on.
