It provides a safe and supportive space to re-connect to ourselves, to unleash our power within, while being fully present in the moment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We all have many inner resources to develop daily resilience if we take the time and indulge in the opportunity to connect to ourselves.\u00a0We use movement, and body rhythms as healing modalities to build up and to embody our resilience. Movement is a universal language. Before we start talking, as babies we move to express our emotions and needs. Later, before being able to speak, we draw and make noises to express and communicate.\u00a0<\/span>In Art and Movement\u00a0<\/span>therapy-based sessions, we use this primary language, beyond words, to let the body speaks our emotions and needs as well.<\/span><\/p>\n Most of the time, participants don\u2019t see the time goes by and tell that they feel like they were in a bubble, which is the sensation of being here and now. It is a way to go back home: our body.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″][et_pb_column type=”1_3″
