How thrilled am I to have my dear childhood friend Kristen Rubow coming to England in May to co-lead a retreat on embodied prayer. Here’s a bit about her:
Kristen is a mind and movement coach, based in Colorado. She used to be a professional harpist, which helped her understand more deeply how God awakens our senses. She developed her studio 15 years ago, with her movement curriculum on neuroplasticity, and now encourages people to use movement to develop connection within themselves, creating a stronger sense of self and wholeness.
While based in the gorgeous surroundings of Lee Abbey in Devon, we’ll use physical movement in prayer to clarify and connect what’s going on in our hearts and heads through the body. We encounter God as we pray, including with our creation in Genesis. We can attach to God through stories in the Old Testament, and receive Jesus’ love through the gospels.
It’s so amazing how neuroscience is now telling us what God has always known – as embodied beings we encounter God through our through our soul, spirit, mind and body.
All are welcome, and we’ll work gently within the limitations of our individual bodies. Come and worship the Lord in spirit, soul, mind and body!
