While Western tradition has sometimes thought of "spiritual" and "embodied" as contrasting terms, most today would agree that we are inescapably embodied. However it is that we are spiritual, we do it in and through our bodies. This workshop will invite participants to explore what ideas our bodies carry of spirituality and how we can use our bodies to explore widening spiritual horizons. The workshop will involve both individual exploration and some experimentation with low-key group exercises. Please wear comfortable clothes!
When: Monday, March 9, 2009
Where: Christian Theological Seminary, room 122
