Embodied Care Workshop: A Practice for connection and Reciprocity

Experiments in Utopia

Join Yello Yaad for this immersive workshop on embodied care and the practices of connection and reciprocity, led by Josh Woolford and Sippin' T.

How can we build our capacity to receive and give care? 

By deepening our connection to our bodies, we better prepare to show up fully for ourselves, our environment, and our communities, nurturing meaningful relationships and fostering sustainable reciprocity. Through grounding embodiment practices—including movement, journaling, and play—participants explore four dimensions of being: length (dignity), width (relational space), depth (internal landscape), and declaration (purpose).

As participants journey from sensation to emotion, thought, and action, we'll cultivate presence and expand our capacity to care for ourselves and others. This workshop is part of an ongoing practice within Yello Yaad, a Sustainable Living and Creative Community space prioritising upskilling, well-being, and social connection, based in Kingston, Jamaica.

Running time: 1 hour 

 

This event is part of Experiments in Utopia, a day of programming centred around imagining liberated worlds and models of governance through sound, movement, and conversation.
