The power of pause

Movement in itself is healing. By pausing again and again, and noticing what shows itself in the opened-up space, we can add in a layer of mindfulness to boost the benefits of our movement practice.
Our contemporary “civilised" societies distorted the natural rhythms of change between activity and rest – constant mental activity and productivity is expected while a sedentary lifestyle is normalised. This practice can be a powerful antidote and tool to take into our everyday lives.

Open Floor embodied mindfulness teacher, biologist • Berlin-based, from Budapest, Hungary • Studied economics, critical social theory, biology • PhD in Tübingen, Germany, in evolutionary ecology.
I weave critical social theory, evolutionary biology, and an ecological perspective into our shared embodied mindfulness practice, which is usually fun and focused at the same time. With a similarly broad musical palette, I aim to give space for an exploration through movement as diverse as possible.
