Coming Home: Embodiment and the Ground of Being with Russell Delman
October 28, 2024 at Help for Helpers
RECORDING TO  BE POSTED

DESCRIPTION:
We will explore the value of differentiating:

• The “physical body” (AS the physical body)
  from the “Feeling Body” (AS an accessible location for felt-senses);
  and
• The “I am here” experience from the “How am I?” experience.
  Also, If there is time, we will also explore how “body” includes space beyond the skin boundary.
  These distinctions are extremely helpful for both self-nourishment/remembering
  and for our clients.

BIO:
Russell’s work called “The Embodied Life” integrates: Zen Meditation, Feldenkrais Movement and Focusing. His more than 50 years of Zen practice roots his emphasis on presence, curiosity and not-knowing. He has been leading Feldenkrais professional trainings since 1984 and helped in educating more than 2000 Feldenkrais practitioners. With unbounded gratitude, he feels blessed by deep personal relationships with both Gene Gendlin and Moshe Feldenkrais. Above all, his wife of 50 years, Linda, and daughter Liliana are his main teachers.

MORE ABOUT HELP FOR HELPERS
HELP FOR HELPERS is an online weekly gathering that was originally created as a response to the overwhelming stresses of pandemic life, especially for those in the helping professions. It developed into a flourishing, ever-growing wellspring of learning and connectedness.

WE ARE:

1.       INTERNATIONAL, INCLUSIVE, WELCOMING
We prize the contributions of all those who attend.

2.       FREE!
All the organizing and facilitating is donated.         

3.       COMMUNITY-ORIENTED
We are developing and expanding our project together.

4.       DIVERSE
We encourage varied points of view and approaches woven together with respect, openness, and embodied listening.

5.       ENRICHING
Each week, we have a reflection drawn from a wide variety of speakers and a broad spectrum of approaches (meditative, academic, personal, social/political, therapeutic) given by experienced teachers and those presenting their ideas for the first time.

6.       PARTICIPATORY
‘The group focuses on and responds spontaneously to what is offered in the reflection. Focusing conversations are facilitated by the large group discussion and small breakout-room sharing.’
