Breema: the Art of Being Present

A weekend workshop May 5 & 6, 2012

Experience Breema Evening – May 4, Friday 7-8:30pm (no charge)

Breema brings you to the level at which you could be nurtured, rather than drained, by your relationship to your body, your surroundings, other people, and all life.

Jon Schreiber, Self-Breema: Exercises for Harmonious Life

Experience the tangible sense of wholeness and aliveness that comes from practicing Self-Breema exercises and Breema bodywork. Students and professionals of all movement and somatic practices are invited to learn and exchange a range of dynamic Breema Sequences, emphasizing mutual support and comfort to benefit both the giver and receiver. Taught in an experiential format this workshop offers practical exploration of the Nine Principles of Harmony, body-mind connection, and the opportunity to experience how vitalizing and nurturing it is to stay connected to yourself as you support others. Breema supports you to be more present, balanced, and available in the midst of life’s demands.

My image stared back at me in a familiar way. There were 4 smaller buttons to press:
