Events Hosted or Supported by Calgary Spiritual Companions
Spiritual Companioning is usually expected to be one-on-one or group activities — usually of a verbal and listening nature. However, there are other ways of doing the inner work of connecting more deeply with Spirit and our earthly environment. This page will display information about all our in-house programming other than the one-on-one companioning sessions that you would contact your spiritual companion to book. This includes limited time programs (1 day or 1 weekend, etc.) and regularly scheduled meetings (weekly, monthly) for group participation.
In-House Programs
One of our companions offers a program based on Gabriel Roth’s 5Rhythms. Please check back for updated information. Here is a description from the 5Rhythms website.
Why We Dance the 5Rhythms
“Dancing the 5Rhythms is a practice—a dynamic way to both workout and to meditate in the same breath. They teach us that life is energy in motion, freeing us from any fixed notions about people, places, objects or ideas.
They say that a picture tells a thousand words. One deep dance tells millions. In dancing 5Rhythms you can unearth a freestyle movement vocabulary rooted in unexpected, fresh ways of moving—visceral and highly personal.
In dancing 5Rhythms you can track perceptions and memories; seek out gestures and shapes; tune into instincts and intuitions. They reveal ways to creatively express aggressiveness and vulnerability, emotions and anxieties, edges and ecstasies. They reconnect us to cycles of birth, death and renewal and hook us up to the spirit in all living things. They initiate us back into the wisdom of our bodies and unleash movement’s dynamic healing power.
In dancing 5Rhythms the body becomes our spiritual path.”
