Join Rebecca Harrison and Suniti Dernovsek for a weekend retreat at Liminalia in Vernonia, Oregon.
In Body as Earth we engage in practice with community on beautiful land. We engage in movement, meditation, and discussion to experiment with deep listening, connecting, and discovering the "wow" in aliveness. We bring our bodies close to the ground, near the water, into the wind, and next to the trees, reminding us of the constant, sensuous process of exchange we are a part of.
When we move, we dance together with Rock Creek, an ancient cedar, and the seen and unseen bodies all intertwined. When we sit in meditation, we practice stopping, pausing, and listening for the forgotten song of the heart, blood, skin, and bones. We ask: What is my heart saying that I have not yet heard? We practice deep listening and connecting to ourselves and the world around us so that we can bring more of this into our daily lives.
Touching and honoring a body that is of the elements, we melt into another way of experiencing time.
This retreat is designed to be a deeply nourishing and resourcing experience that will support you to return to your regular life with more ability to approach it with depth, wisdom, and joy.
Liminalia is situated in Vernonia, Oregon. Here you are invited to swim in Rock Creek, sit in an ancient cedar, rest on a grassy island, walk in a moist forest, sit by an evening camp fire, enjoy the sauna, steam room and swing. There is a main house and yoga studio, a barn, 6 cabins for sleeping and resting in and plenty of camping spots.
The land we gather on was once home to the Chinook, Clatskanie and many other indigenous peoples. We touch our capacity to simultaneously hold the grief of what has been lost and open to the blessings of this place.
