Description
“What you cannot discover in your own body, You will not discover in any place of the world.” – Gurdjieff
Join us for a 6 day residential workshop at the Earth Spirit Centre near Glastonbury to dive deep into Gurdjieff's Sacred Movements with international teacher Carol Squire. Together, we will be moving, dancing, playing, sharing and entering into deep silence using Gurdjieff’s unique contributions to the development of human consciousness –the Sacred Dances (movements), the Original Enneagram and the Fourth Way path.
Carol’s approach provides challenge for experienced walkers on the spiritual path while welcoming those just beginning their journey (including those with physical limitations). Whatever our ‘level’, we can walk together.
From the first steps into the Movements, the body is drawn into the discovery of deep sensation and impulse. The heart opens and responds to the mesmerizing music composed by Gurdjieff and de Hartmann. The head is challenged by the requirement for focused attention, until it quietens and integrates.
Those who choose to work with the Gurdjieff Sacred Dances (or Movements) hold big questions about Life and Being. With curiosity and vital intelligence, we willingly put ourselves back into beginner mode so that we can be clear enough to hear the answers. Carol has been working with the Movements since she was introduced to them in India in 2000 by her teacher, Akash Dharmaraj, a beautiful example of one who kept asking questions of herself and her students and whose unexpected answers still reverberate. In the Akhaldans lineage, we lead with and from compassion and toward inner exploration – the Journey to Inaccessible Places.
We are excited to bring this work to the UK for the first time in these precious lands of Glastonbury and Avalon which as always will bring its own qualities of discovery.
