After a highly successful, sold out launch event, Human Connections is back to offer you an immersive in-person experiment in connecting with others through presence and play.
Beltane, celebrated on May 1st, marks the midpoint between spring equinox and summer solstice; the peak of spring and the earth's fertile abundance.
In this fun and uplifting afternoon, there will be a flow of activities that bring people together in a fun and easeful way. Sometimes as a whole group, sometimes in small groups and sometimes in pairs, there will be a mixture of laughter, embodiment, conscious touch, breath work, heartfelt dialogue, inquiry, movement and relaxation.
It will be a journey of authentic and compassionate relating, coming together in different configurations and exploring connecting in different ways. Within the weave, there will also be individual reflection and relaxation to build greater connection with ourselves.
At the end, there will be time to mingle whilst sharing some drinks and superfood snacks (included). Come as you are, and leave feeling refreshed, seen, and truly connected.
