Over the last 30+ years of teaching embodiment, Constance Clare-Newman has developed a trauma-sensitive, neuroscience-informed approach to embodiment practices that focus on wholeness of being.
Grounded in her own deep study of embodiment practices, dance, improvisation, meditation, breathwork, trauma work, contemplative traditions, deep ecology, social justice work and addiction recovery, Constance facilitates a path to wholeness with a pedagogy of pleasure.
The cultural norm of working hard at improvement is relinquished for a slow-pace of enjoyment and feelings of pleasure that facilitate healing, creativity and unity of self. Nature-based play makes way for co-evolving with the natural world and deepening our relationship with self and environment. Breath awareness and exploration restores and rejuvenates. Sustainability for self, community and environment is prioritized for dynamic balance of human and non-human life.
I've been a fan of Joanna Macy since "World as Lover, World as Self" first came out. In the decades since, I've followed the WTR in books, workshops, online. I've flirted with becoming a WTR facilitator, but have yet to make the time. My own classes for dealing with eco-anxiety or collapse fear incorporate aspects of WTR (particularly feeling into the grief) but are more somatic based practices and less group talking.
Glad to be a member of this community as well as Deep Adaptation and XR.
