The Dreaming Temple 

The Dreaming Temple
An exploratory workshop exploring dreams in sacred circle. A safe space to explore the symbols, archetypes, and language of your dreams.

Through sacred circle, guided visualization and embodied movement we will seek to engage in the mystery and magic of the dream world.

I am a movement psychotherapist; I have studied dreams for around 25 years in jungian circles and personal jungian analysis. Embodiment, to me, is the foundation of bringing the unconscious firmly into consciousness. Movement is life. 🩵

Location: Yoga and therapy space, Earthbeat Centre, Saltburn by the Sea
Duration: 7pm to 8.30pm
Cost: £20 per workshop( £15 if booked through WhatsApp group)

All welcome. 🙏🩵
Please email movementherapy@google mail.com with any questions or to book.

"The whole existence is a dance that never begins and never ends, a song that goes on and on and on. The moment you start feeling it, there is nothing else to do but to be grateful, to bow down to the infinity of existence, to the mystery of existence and to the great gift that it has given to you. That you are, this is the gift, the most precious gift. That you are alive, that you can see the stars and the sun and the moon, that you can hear music, that you can touch people and feel the warmth, that you can love and be loved"
- Osho
