Soul Motion®: Body Prayer every Sunday in person
2025-06-01 10:00 - 12:00, 2025-06-08 10:00 - 12:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Wischemann Hall, 465 Morris St, Sebastopol, CA, 95472, United States
BODY PRAYER IS A FACILITATED EVENT DEVOTED TO INQUIRY INTO EMBODIED CONSCIOUSNESS THROUGH MOVEMENT.
This class is offered every Sunday morning, and led by Zuza Engler or another teacher. It is usually attended by a vibrant & diverse bunch of welcoming and friendly people, some of whom have practiced Soul Motion® for years, while some ~ never before.
What to expect
Guidance and structure are part of every week’s class as we travel across the four landscapes of Soul Motion®:
Dance Infinite (prayer space)
Dance Community (ensemble)
Dance Communion (duet)
Dance Intimate (solo)
Practices, structures, and points of view are offered to facilitate the journey. Participants are invited to travel across all landscapes, not just their favorite one: dancing by oneself, in duet, in ensemble with several people and eventually the whole room, or witnessing in stillness the beauty of another’s or of everyone’s dance.
Body Prayer offers a place to be safely uncomfortable as we experiment with ourselves and with each other in our awkward and magnificent dance at the edge of possibility.
No experience necessary! Everyone welcome!

Doors at 730, show starts at 8pm and runs about 75-80 minutes, no intermission, and the performer promises: NO CROWD WORK
The show: Growing up with a bipolar father and a schizophrenic brother left Aaron Foster with a combination of survivor’s guilt, depression and anxiety that has invalidated his every accomplishment, destroyed his every relationship and invaded his every waking thought. A comedy!
“Mostly Jokes” was named “Best Solo Show” at the Tucson Fringe Festival in January and has received reviews such as: “A laugh every twenty seconds.” “I’ve never laughed so hard about mental health.” “Subversively hilarious, laugh out loud gallows humor.”
Foster is the former host of HGTV’s FreeStyle who turned to standup to manage his depression and anxiety. He has performed at clubs all over the West Coast and has been touring this show for the past year. Some of his main influences are Mike Birbiglia, Maria Bamford, Gary Gulman, Marc Maron, Taylor Tomlinson and Neal Brennan. Do with that information what you will.

Mystical Geography of the Cosmos: The Purpose of Journey
2025-06-09 18:00 - 19:30 | Hopmonk Sebastopol, 230 Petaluma Ave, Sebastopol, CA, 95472
‘As Above So Below’
Kenan will explore the ancient hermetic maxim, ‘As above so below’ — and its profound implications for one’s journey through life, as well as for the various technologies of travel – both inner and outer! What is the true purpose of ‘JOURNEY’ and the power of its hidden dimension: Revelation? Sacred geography, power spots, and the invisible worlds around us have a profound connection to an individual’s evolutionary arc. Is there an emerging planetary consciousness that is an integration of cross-cultural theological maps and new scientific frameworks.
Kenan will introduce how one might transform mundane artifacts into extraordinary perceptual doorways and explore the ways in which the microcosm, the human being, reflects the macrocosm. Bring an artifact that speaks to you — a talisman, stone, plant, book, action figure, technology, deity, for a thought experiment.

Great Nature" Breathwork, Meditation, and Acupressure With Britt Peterson and Maggie Zebrine
2025-06-10 09:00 - 16:30 | Osmosis Day Spa Sanctuary, 209 Bohemian Hwy., Freestone, CA, 95472, United States
Immerse yourself in our serene 5-acre spa retreat in West Sonoma County for a day of transformative self-care. Your journey begins with a morning of relaxation, including a group cedar enzyme footbath, your choice of a 70-minute massage or a 65-minute custom facial, peaceful walking meditation through our bamboo forest, and guided meditation in our renowned Japanese garden. Next, a nourishing lunch, crafted by a local chef with fresh, wholesome ingredients will be offered in a magical creekside setting beneath the shade of oak and bay trees.
In the afternoon, explore the magic of connecting your personal nature with Great Nature by playing with breath wraps for rapture, metaphor, and imaginative meditation practices led by Maggie Zebrine. To begin, using the body as a resource to keep us grounded to earth, we will climb a mountain in the mind with active pranayama. Then, we will play with subtle integrated breath techniques, and meditate through the lens of Taoism, the Five Elements, and TCM. Meanwhile, acupressure will be administered by Britt Peterson to elevate and integrate your insights as we steep in restoration in the serenity of the Osmosis Day Spa setting.
Following this, after experiencing the acupressure session, learn self-acupressure and new techniques to continue the renewal in your home practice. Additionally, a handout of the acupressure points and meditation practices will be provided for you to take a piece of the experience home with you. Ultimately, leave with tools for a more easeful life, high spirits, and a refreshed perspective.
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned practitioner, all are welcome. Please wear comfy, loose-fitting clothing and bring a yoga mat
“What we call “I” is just a swinging door that moves when we inhale and when we exhale.” – Shunryu Suzuki
