The Power of Play & the Wonder of Wandering
Sunday, Feb 16, 2:30-5:30 p.m. at Women of Wisdom Conference in Seattle
Do you miss play in your life? Play is as essential for our wellbeing as sleep and in a culture that places high value on busy-ness and “productivity”, time for play, wonder and wandering are lost arts. Yet, these things, especially when done outdoors, fill our body with happy feelings, the abundant Qi of Nature, and the sense of awe and enchantment we were born with. They are keys to our creativity, aliveness and our soul’s purpose. Through simple qigong, outdoor play and a culminating quest , a solo “wonder wander” (with its roots in Chinese medicine), we will reclaim the power, vitality and joy innate to us all!
Join me in this 3-hour workshop on the Women of Wisdom Conference on Sunday, February 16 from 2:30-5:30 p.m.
Location: UW Tower, 4333 Brooklyn Ave N., Seattle, WA 98105
