Dear Movalogue friends,
In this post, we explore the profound impact of shared feelings within a community, particularly as experienced during a recent Movalogue call. Guided by Petra, participants engaged in a journey of self-exploration that allowed for deep listening and connection. This experience highlighted the transformative power of vulnerability and the beauty of collective expression, fostering a sense of belonging and acceptance.

Feelings most time calls upon my attention nowadays. In particularly so when the resonance of feelings is shared and echoed in the social body. In a previous Movalogue call, we were guided by Petra to explore our individual space from the back of the spine, then to the front of the chest.
As each of us wrote our haiku from this embodied exercise, we listened with the whole body. The whole body listening resonated with lines, forms, and movements as the rhythms of the sound orchestrated heartful appreciations of the beauty. My anxiety and fear dropped into the gentle wave of sound, and a sense of a bigger Self emerged as I saw the collective dance when I read the haiku. Listening and being listened to create the allowance and acceptance of who I am and what I am. Simplify, just I am.
When pains were shared in open gentleness, feelings of being understood and held blanketed the body with warmth and care. When fears are revealed in open honesty, feelings of belonging and restfulness settled the disturbing mind. Curiosity, care, and love—the qualities pouring from the heart reshape the feelings of our bodies and us. Being at easiness and being in just simply one self.
In the holidays, let's rest in our nest. Bring some tea and cookies to share.
If you resonate with our curiosity of exploring these healing space of joint presence we encourage you to join us in our next gathering on Tuesday, December 17th, at 10am EST / 4pm CEST / 11pm Singapore.
We warmly welcome everyone to be a part of Movalogue's Social Body. Feel free to share this invitation widely!
With open hearts and boundless gratitude,
Movalogue Firekeepers
