SUMMARY:In-Person and Online: The Body Remembers Freedom - Meditation\, InterPlay\, and the Art of Coming Home to Yourself
DESCRIPTION:In-Person and Online: The Body Remembers Freedom – Meditation\, InterPlay\, and the Art of Coming Home to Yourself \nwith Kaira Jewel Lingo\n \nThursday\, October 9th\, 2025 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET \nIn-Person Location: New York Insight at 115 West 29th Street\, 12th Floor \n \nOffered monthly on 1st or 2nd Thursdays\, 6:30 – 8:30pm ET — see full list of dates below. Open to all. In-person attendance is recommended\, but hybrid participation will be available for at least this first session on a trial basis. \nNote: This event will be recorded\, so please feel free to sign up even if you are in a time zone that would not allow you to join in real time. You will automatically receive the video once it’s ready. \nWhat if freedom wasn’t something to earn — but something your body already remembers? What if your body already carried the wisdom you need to heal\, connect\, and come home to yourself? What if play could be a blessing? \nThe Body Remembers Freedom is a monthly gathering where we explore the intersection of meditation\, dharma\, and embodied practice. Each session includes time for stillness and contemplation\, a dharma talk or shared inquiry\, and InterPlay — a playful\, powerful practice using movement\, voice\, storytelling\, and deep listening to unlock the wisdom of the body. \nTogether we create a space that welcomes laughter\, tears\, rest\, and joy — a space where you can move freely\, feel deeply\, and be held in community. Through this practice\, we remember what it feels like to trust ourselves\, to breathe fully\, and to belong. \nParticipants are supported to be: \n\nMore grounded and connected to their bodies and each other\nReconnected to joy\, creativity\, and inner resource\nBetter able to meet life — and themselves — with compassion and presence\n\nWe gather to remember the sacred in the ordinary\, to bless our own aliveness\, and to reconnect with community\, the earth\, and the truth in our bones. \nCome as you are. No performance\, experience\, or flexibility required — just a willingness to be curious and present. \nWe suggest you wear comfortable clothing that you can move in freely. \nSave the dates for additional Thursday sessions in this series! These upcoming sessions will open for registration soon:\n2025: November 6 | December 4\n2026: January 15 | February 12 | March 12 | April 9 | May 7 | June 18 | July 9 | August 13 \nIn-Person Registration:\nPlease register below.
