TOGETHER WE ARE GROWING CULTURAL LIFEWAYS OF BELONGING THROUGH COMMUNITY ECOLOGICAL EMBODIMENT RESEARCH & PRACTICE
​Eco-somatics is a field of embodied research and practice exploring ancestral technologies of animist wisdom. With roots in Indigenous knowledge systems, our approach combines decolonial theory, somatic practice, and ecological relationality to create a framework for embodied belonging.
Eco-somatic approaches rest on a foundational acknowledgment of interdependence and explores how life moves within and along a relational continuum between bodies, Lands and Waters across space and time.
Eco-somatics helps us to explore, in an experiential way through our bodies, our interconnectedness to the living world, because our bodies are an extension of earth. Belonging is embodied to the extent that one is attuned and responsive to the wisdom of the earth / body continuum.
WHAT IS ECO-SOMATICS?
We are being called to mend our estrangement from the web of life,
to remember our belongingness to the living world,
and to allow space in our lives to be re-enchanted by the song of Earth.
