Description:
Join Jamie Anesi, LCPC every Tuesday morning at 10:15AM at Dancing Lotus Center for Movement Therapy. Movement Therapy is a somatic movement practice where and individual focuses on learning the authentic wisdom of the body to assist with holistic healing. Often words can't explain a feeling or experience, which can leave a person feeling severed or fragmented from the body and emotions. This separation of mind, body and emotions can lead to chronic feeling of loss, anxiety and depression. Emotional injuries that are held in the body for long periods of time also lead to chronic conditions such as PTSD and Dissociative Disorders. Using the body as a tool to higher awareness, buried feelings, emotions and memories can surface in a safe, holistic way, freeing a person from old patterns and energy blocks. Session may include breathing awareness, a variety of movement forms, eclectic mix of music, boundary work, visual guidance, meditation and mindfulness of body sensations. These methods increase awareness of emotional and physical boundaries, decrease anxiety and depression and relieve symptoms of PTSD and other trauma-related health problems. Through the use of choreographed and improvised dance and movement, a person can learn to become more aware of how one breathes, moves, speaks and experiences emotional, physical, visual and spiritual feelings in the body. The purpose of this approach is to leave a person with a deeper connection to oneself and the world.
