The heart has a foundational role in our wellbeing, our life force and some say our soul developing very early in our embryological process and underlying the development of other body systems including the brain and the nervous system.
If there is a difficulty in alignment, flexibility, or strength, initiating movement or sound from our heart and working with our heart through touch and consciousness can provide ways to support greater ease, comfort and change.
In this three-class series we will explore our hearts creation, early reflexes and developmental movement; opening our awareness to the expressive foundations of
our heart-mind.
Explorations will also draw from other body systems including the relationship to our lungs, our circulation, our voice and breath and our upper limbs and hands.
Over the three lessons releasing stress and tightness in the heart and opening our tissues and cells to the flow and forces of our “quiet heart” through transitioning
from sympathetic to parasympathetic.
Revealing the consciousness of our own heart to ourselves provides us with the strength to open the door of compassion and embrace ourselves and others, perceive with clarity, and act with integrity. Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen

IN AID OF: FARMS FOR CITY CHILDREN
Farms for City Children provides nature immersive residential visits for primary school
children who live in some of the most densely populated and marginalised communities in the country and
empowers them to see a bigger, brighter future. These children may never have left the city or spent time in
the countryside. Their horizons are broadened as they become more connected to the countryside, the
environment and the source of the food they eat.
During their week in wellies the children’s self-confidence and self-esteem grow as they work as part of a
team, developing new skills to do the purposeful work around the farm. They become farmers for a week.
They also enjoy simple pleasures in a screen-free environment such as building dens, making charcoal from
a bonfire, whittling wood or taking-in the spectacular scenery on countryside or coastal walks surrounding t
he farms. It’s a profound experience that will stay with them for life. click on photo to watch film
