In the organizer's words:

Coming Home to Myself

Embodiment Workshop - Embodied through challenging times

We live in times that challenge us on many levels: social crises, global conflicts, insecurity, pressure to perform, social injustice and constant sensory overload not only affect our minds, but also our bodies.

Our nervous systems react with stress, tension, withdrawal, inner restlessness or numbness. These reactions are not individual deficits, but physically sensible responses to structural conditions.

Coming Home to Myself is an invitation to counteract this - an invitation to connect with yourself and others through the body.

The workshop combines somatic exercises, trauma-sensitive bodywork, embodiment & movement with an awareness that self-care cannot be thought of in isolation from the social context.

Through breath, movement, voice, touch and somatic shaking, we explore how we can find our way out of stress and survival modes and back into presence, aliveness and (self-)contact.

You will learn body-based practices that can support you in

• regulate your nervous system
• Reduce tension and stress on a physical level
• Strengthen a sense of inner security

The workshop is deliberately designed to be practice-oriented.

Brief theoretical impulses on the classification of stress, the nervous system and social conditions accompany the physical experiences, but are not the main focus.

Coming Home to Myself creates a protected space for FLINTA* in which individual experience and collective experience can enter into a relationship with each other. A space that is not about optimization, but about connection.

Not about functioning, but about feeling.

Not about adaptation, but about presence and embodied joy.

Let's come home - together.

FLINTA stands for women, lesbians, intersex people, non-binary people, trans*people and agender people.
