You spend most of the day in your head: planning, managing, reacting. Your body comes along for the ride, and you barely notice it's there.

This is the first workshop of the year, and the one everything else rests on. You come into your body and feel what holds you up: your weight, the floor under it, the breath moving through you. Then you choose a few small anchors you can come back to anywhere.

In the room

  • Find the places your weight meets the floor and let it settle there.
  • Practice one slow, low breath.
  • Choose two or three anchors to take home: your feet, your breath, your hands.

The one-minute practice

Sit or stand. Find the three or four places your weight meets the floor or the chair. Let it sink there. Take one slower breath.

Where is my weight right now?

This is the first of five Sense workshops, January to May. Join the Sense cohort for $180, or come to this one for $45.
