Magical Relaxation: Restorative Movement & Image Bath
Restore body and mind with gentle movement while you bask in beautiful images from the world of picture books. We’ll explore somatic practices that help us slow down, connect with our breath, and play with easeful, expressive movement. Images from the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art’s upcoming exhibit Sprites, Spells, and Splashes: Magical Beings in Picture Book Art will provide a rich backdrop of colors, textures, and magical beings to help our imaginations unfurl as our bodies relax.
All bodies welcome. No movement experience needed. Accessibility inquiries encouraged, please contact the instructor Terre Parker terreunite@gmail.com.
