What do you need right NOW to be well?

Join Kanada Gorla, co-creator of Catalyst and Lydia Newman, Catalyst Course co-facilitator, to explore staying well in body and soul during this time. Kanada setting some context, Lydia leading us in an embodiment practice she is using herself these days to stay in a good place, with a Q&A after.

This workshop will allow us to put down our thinking brains and allow us to sink into the wisdom of the body. Be prepared to let your body communicate unknown truths to yourself as we give it centre stage.

Let it be fun, let it be joyful, let it be restful and emancipating as we give ourselves a chance to experience ourselves and our space in new ways.

Catalyst is an Embercombe programme for young people ages 18 – 29.
