The Elemental Compass

This lesson invites you into a living exploration of the elemental compass, opening a powerful inquiry into how you stand at the centre of your own circle. As you bring awareness to your relationship with the four directions and the four elements, your energetic integrity and presence grow, along with a clearer sense of orientation in your life.

Across cultures and traditions, the four directions and the elements; air, fire, water, and earth, have been used as a way of orienting in both the outer world and the inner landscape. We approach them as dynamic forces we can experience directly through awareness and movement.

This is about inhabiting the living architecture of existence and the primal forces that sustain all life, including that which is intimately our own.

In the Keynote you will see some lovely footage of a father and son paddling by canoe a part of the WATER: "Wild About The River Erme" project. Our Mini Embodiment practices are often filmed at the mouth of the river, so it feels especially beautiful to share this footage with you in the Keynote.

For the Live Class and the Mini Embodiment practices, please bring with you 4 objects, one to represent each element: earth, air, fire and water. There is more detail about this in the Keynote.

We look forward to sharing this exploration with you.
