Graceful Living, a Threshold into Dying - Thanatology

Nothing, it is said, teaches us more about living than dying ...

2023, Nov. 27 / 28 / 29 / 30 / Dec.1

... but if so, isn’t it odd how little we face up to death : and isn’t it odd that modern societies, which appear so keen to find meaning in the business of living, push death to the periphery, minimizing our contact with it and sanitizing its impact !

The purpose of this seminar is to discover, to learn through investigation, to discover within the self the barriers and fears associated with death and dying ~ the fears and barriers we create living each day

We will welcome silence, experience quiet reflection, dialog, inner inquiry :
ponder expectation and conditioning

We will consider our own death and the death of our loved ones: we will inquire into being with others in their final days of living

We will inquire into the social, ethical and spiritual implications, regarding the physiological and psychological effects on the body regarding loss, stress, fear, disbelief, isolation, anger, bargaining, pain, grief, sorrow, depression and despair.

OsteoThai Workshop

Restoring Joints with OsteoThai : Focus on Ankles, Knees, Hips and Shoulders

with Flora, 3 days, 15 to 17 Jan. 2024

The joints are key points of our physical and energetic body and are often not treated for fear or lack of knowledge of their functioning. In this workshop you will learn simple, safe and effective techniques to restore mobility in the ankles, knees, hips and shoulders.

By combining the Thai Massage with the principles and tools of Osteopathy, we will practice techniques of the general treatments (GOT): routine, rhythm, rotation and fixed point, reciprocal tension and slack. We will focus on a sequence to restore mobility, articular integrity, coordination and stabilisation, with gentle repetitive movements for the ankle, knee, hips and shoulders.
