In our October 2024 blog post "Parenting a Social Body" we explored the concept of community as a social body, needing nourishment and care, just like a child. This nourishment comes in many forms, including love, attention, and authentic connection.
Authentic relationships foster a safe space where we can be ourselves without fearing judgment. They offer a sense of belonging and connection, which can be profoundly healing. As Verena König states in her book "Trauma and Relationships," "People begin to heal the moment they feel seen."
These relationships allow us to feel secure and supported, encouraging us to share our experiences, process past traumas, and integrate them into our life story. They also help us unlearn limiting behavior patterns, build trust, and establish healthier connections.
The practice of Social Presencing Theater offers valuable tools to foster these relationships and nourish the social body. Through mindful movement and encounter, we learn to perceive and understand ourselves and others better. We practice empathy and compassion and develop our ability to be present in the moment.
Embracing change and vulnerability, as Petra Borgmann Durrie articulated in her recent blog post is essential for growth. Authentic relationships provide the container where we can safely explore our vulnerability and navigate change.
We warmly welcome everyone to be a part of Movalogue's Social Body and be part of nest of trust and beauty.
 | This month, we have a unique opportunity to delve deeper into the theme of self-discovery and authentic expression. Doruk Kurt will be sharing her book "Symphony of the Stars," a story about a girl who learns to embrace her authentic voice and inspire others to do the same. |
Join us for this special Open Movalogue Call on February 18th, at 10am EST / 4pm CEST / 11pm Singapore.
Thank you for being a part of our story, and we look forward to keep on sharing.
