SUMMARY:Everything is Beautiful
DESCRIPTION:Everything is Beautiful\nFriday\, November 8th\nFacilitator: Lanie McKeever Anderson \nPlease join me for a precious moving prayer through ecstatic dance. \nEverything is beautiful and I am so sad.\nThis is how the heart makes a duet of\nwonder and grief. The light spraying\nthrough the lace of the fern is as delicate\nas the fibers of memory forming their web\naround the knot in my throat. The breeze\nmakes the birds move from branch to branch\nas this ache makes me look for those I’ve lost\nin the next room\, in the next song\, in the laugh\nof the next stranger. In the very center\, under\nit all\, what we have that no one can take\naway and all that we’ve lost face each other.\nIt is there that I’m adrift\, feeling punctured\nby a holiness that exists inside everything.\nI am so sad and everything is beautiful. \n~ poem by Mark Nepo\, “Adrift”\, from Inside the Miracle: Enduring Suffering\, Approaching Wholeness\, (Sounds True\, 2016)\n~ art by Lanie McKeever \nLanie’s mixes: www.soundcloud.com/rainbowdragonheart.

SUMMARY:Saturday\, Nov 23\, 2024\, Eco Grief Dance at Lake Eden Barn
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, November 23rd\nTemple of Seaweed presents\nEco Grief Dance at Lake Eden Barn\n5:30 pm to 7:15 pm\nLake Eden Barn\n377 Lake Eden Road\, Black Mountain\, NC \nSponsors Leaf\, AMC\, and StarTribe\nFacilitators: Sara Bensman and Jeannie Adair \nHow do you express grief in the aftermath of a natural disaster? Just putting those two words together – natural and disaster – feels contrary to the human spirit. \nPrior to Hurricane Helene\, Western North Carolina was flourishing in its first stages of foliage season. Now? We are faced with grief beyond individual and collective comprehension. So many people feel soul-shocked and gutted by the devastation. So many hearts are cracked open. So much is still tender\, raw and wounded. So much weeping remains… \nWe’re hosting this eco-grief dance in the beloved barn at Lake Eden as an invitation for you to be in your grief and with your grief\, to give movement and expression to your grief; to allow your grief to flow freely through you… \nBy Donation\, all profits donated to Beloved Asheville.\nAdd the comment Eco Grief when you pay with Venmo.

SUMMARY:The Body Is the Score
DESCRIPTION:The Body Is the Score\nFriday\, November 29th\nFacilitator: Sara Bensman \nA storm blows through and just as it shifts the ground beneath our feet and knocks down trees\, it also stirs up the grief and trauma that has been living in our bodies and overpowers our normal defenses. Dance has always brought us back to our bodies when we feel uprooted or vulnerable. Research now shows that bilateral movements\, shaking and stretching can release trauma\, but as a species\, we have always known this instinctively. This dance is an opportunity to find whatever continues to cling to your spine\, fascia or heart and to offer it up to the rhythms and movement.

SUMMARY:Experiencing Unity
DESCRIPTION:Experiencing Unity\nFriday\, December 13th\nGuest DJ: Megan Belling\nSupporting Facilitator: Rory Jagdeo \nWith the daily hustle and bustle\, it’s easy to forget that we are all one – just branches stemming from the same tree. Every day we experience the illusion of “others”and separation from oneness. I believe our aim amidst the different beliefs or the language we don’t understand\, is to come back to the knowing that we are all connected despite this. We dance as one even as we move in our own unique way.

SUMMARY:DANCE CANCELLED - Four Seasons in One Day
DESCRIPTION:DANCE CANCELLED – Four Seasons in One Day\nSunday\, January 10th\nFacilitator: Lanie McKeever  \nDrawing inspiration from one of my favorite Neil Finn / Crowded House songs\, join me for an evening of movement to embrace our life’s ever-changing nature and impermanence. We will tend to the myriad of emotions that visit our bodies and experiences throughout just one day: from joy to sorrow\, hope to despair. Maybe we will become curious about any shifts in our bodies\, minds\, and spirits as we attune to the changes in rhythm\, within and without. Perhaps we are becoming the change we want to see in the world.

SUMMARY:Speck of a Star
DESCRIPTION:Speck of a Star\nFriday\, January 17th\nFacilitator: Sara Bensman  \nWithin each of us is a particular genius\, our unique offering to the universe\, or what the ancient people referred to as a speck of a star.  Our ancestors knew that our collective future depends on each of us finding and sharing that genius with the world. \n“Don’t go away\, come near.\nDon’t be faithless\, be faithful.\nFind the antidote in the venom.\nCome to the root of the root of yourself. \nMolded of clay\, yet kneaded\nfrom the substance of certainty\,\na guard at the Treasury of Holy Light —\ncome\, return to the root of the root of your Self. \nOnce you get hold of selflessness\,\nYou’ll be dragged from your ego\nand freed from many traps.\nCome\, return to the root of the root of your Self… \nYou are a ruby embedded in granite.\nHow long will you pretend it’s not true?\nWe can see it in your eyes.\nCome to the root of the root of your Self.” \nFrom The Root of the Root of Yourself by Rumi

SUMMARY:Four Seasons in One Day
DESCRIPTION:Four Seasons in One Day\nFriday\, February 21st\nFacilitator: Lanie McKeever \nDrawing inspiration from one of my favorite Neil Finn / Crowded House songs\, join me for an evening of movement to embrace our life’s ever-changing nature and impermanence. We will tend to the myriad of emotions that visit our bodies and experiences throughout just one day: from joy to sorrow\, hope to despair. Maybe we will become curious about any shifts in our bodies\, minds\, and spirits as we attune to the changes in rhythm\, within and without. Perhaps we are becoming the change we want to see in the world.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Veil
DESCRIPTION:Beyond the Veil\nFriday\, April 18th\nFacilitator: Rory Jagdeo \n“Across our path a sunbeam gently lies;We know not whence it came; we think we know;But\, as we watch its glories come and go\,It fades away! Whither? Into the skies?We seek to follow it\, with blinking eyes\,Beyond the Veil—of which we nothing know!But e’en imagination is too slowTo chase a sunbeam as it heavenward flies.The fairest and the dearest objects fade\,Just as a sunbeam comes and glides away;But\, e’en while lingering in the gloom and shade\,Struggling through sorrow’s night into the day\,We feel “’tis better to have loved and lostThan never to have loved”—whate’er the cost.”\n~ Timothy Thomas Fortune
