Remembering

Dear Reader,

It’s Memorial Day here in the United States. It’s a day set aside to remember those who gave their lives in service to our country. So many lives lost. So much grief and suffering. And we have so many privileges because of their sacrifices.

One of the repeated themes in Feldenkrais lessons, in coaching, and even in felt-making, is exploring more options. Whether it’s physical movement, life choices, or creative endeavors, we can find possibilities we didn’t know existed.

It’s easy to take choices for granted—in fact, sometimes we have too many choices and become overwhelmed.

Today is a good day to slow down and give thanks, to remember those who lost their lives that we might have freedom.

It’s also a good day to consider what we individually might do to encourage peace. What might we say and do, that could make our world a more peaceful place, where we can find better ways to live together on this earth?

Here are some opportunities for exploring your options:

Our Tuesday online Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement lesson> is Free/Pay as You Wish.

Two in-person classes in June at the Jung Center of Houston:

How about playing with a beach ball and wool fibers? Playing with felt always feels magical to me, and one of my students even described it as “miraculous.” Making Space: Felting Around a Ball is an in-person workshop at the Jung Center of Houston. You might be surprised at how little talent it requires to create a fabulous bowl or bag or vessel. The workshop will be on Saturday afternoon, June 22.

On Saturday, June 29, you can have an in-person Feldenkrais experience. In person at the Jung Center of Houston, please join me for Finding Your Footing: a Feldenkrais Mini-retreat.

And, if you would like to work with me privately, you can Book an Appointment or reply to this email, and we’ll set up a time to connect.

May peace go between us until we meet again
