The following list of “resources” is meant to be an offering for you to explore some of the places I’ve visited and have found enchanting. You’ll see that some of it is more formal and some of it is more fanciful. And some of it is, well, outrageous. Have fun!

5Rhythms Dance Practice: http://www.movingcenterschool.com/
5Rhythms is a movement meditation practice devised by Gabrielle Roth in the 1960s. Fundamental to the practice is the idea that everything is energy, and moves in waves, patterns and rhythms. By moving the body, releasing the heart, and freeing the mind, one can connect to the essence of the soul, the source of inspiration in which an individual has unlimited possibility and potential. Awesome!
