Body Wisdoms Yatra: Movement, Liberation and Embodied Awareness

The pandemic has shown us now, more than ever, is the time for us to reclaim our choices about our bodies, wellbeing and relationships and tuning into our body’s wisdom is one of the paths towards that.

To reconnect with the body is to enliven the wisdom of the experience. The normativity of the current system of oppression has taught us to judge the body and classify it in sizes and shapes, motivational phrases and even spiritual paths, generalizing people and their processes and alienating too many from their own source of deep communion with the movement of life.

Now more than ever, confined into the screen world, it is essential that we challenge this normativity and to inhabit our body awakening consciousness with kindness, patience and care as a practice of self-understanding, learning to relate and communicate in a way that regenerates our severed connection with the body of the Earth.

This journey is an opportunity to explore ways of traveling in and out of the flesh, in beats and sweat, in breath and calm, in rhythm and movement, visiting different projects and approaches virtually to co-create a space for the recognition of the wisdom of our body, attuning to what we are and not what the imposed normativity wants us to be.

Welcome to this journey in which your body wisdom will be the host and guide, supported by seven innovative projects of brilliant body practitioners and the bodies-territories where they dwell, in India, Chile, Portugal, UK, Mexico and Brazil.
