Movement /dance is a language through which we are able to become aware and somatically creative. Bridging anatomical and physiological function with emotion, memory, imagination and autobiography, Daria presents a unique process of body mapping using the expressive arts of movement/dance, drawing and poetic narrative to guide participants on a journey through personal autobiography and archetypal themes. Participants will be introduced to the Tamalpa Life/Art Process®, an approach used to explore the bridge between the artistic and therapeutic potency of the expressive body.
The “way” you look, is the most powerful force shaping your life and sense of reality. Seeing through the eyes of wonder has a quality of “I know you” and simultaneously “don’t know you.” Mystery is there. An ancient yet fresh primordial capacity of ‘seeing’ emerges. In the creative capacity for inquiry, we go beyond what we think we know, we meet the tender vulnerability of not-knowing and discover an ancient primordial intelligence, a capacity to know, to discover. We deepen incarnation through an exploratory creative process of engaging, perceiving, participating, playing and connecting.

This session will dive into the insidious ways (sometimes called micro-traumas) in which we can become disembodied and dissociated from a very young age and how this can lead to functional freeze. Irene will use a blend of vignettes to tell this story, mix in teaching points that touch into the polyvagal theory, plus she'll sprinkle in somatic cues throughout the session so one stays connected to their present moment. She'll speak to the path forward so one can heal from these deeply embedded patterns. If time permits, she'd love to answer your questions.
Trauma Releasing Exercises: Ancient systems and modern science
David Berceli
This presentation will demonstrate how the ancient system of body tremors can be explained through modern science. We will discuss how the tremor mechanism reestablishes the necessary “intra-personal” relationship with one’s self as the foundational element for re-developing “inter-personal” relationships with others after traumatic events. We will look at how Post Traumatic Growth contributes to this process as a natural occurring outcome of the human body’s intrinsic survival mechanisms of myofascia patterns, Central Pattern Generators, Sensory Receptors and the Intrinsic Connectivity Network.
