Sound Body - Lessons with Molly Kittle

What a wonderful teacher training immersion we had these past several days in Boulder. Each student, myself included, grew and bloomed by the end of the time together. I'm honored to be a part of each person's path to teach this work - and I'm so proud of these students!

Trust is meeting the unknown with a state of curiosity.

Trust is a connection with our innate support.

Trust is connection.

Trust requires that we lean into connection without necessarily knowing or having a clear reference point yet for what we’re experiencing.

In Alexander Work explorations, you might notice a cultivation of trust in yourself, your structure, your abilities, your movements, and your perceptions.

All of which support you as you go through your life.

Support exists all around you. It is literally the ground below you, and the sky above. What’s it like to trust that in this moment?

What does kindness have to do with alignment?

How we meet our whole self in a given moment contributes to how we orient physically and meet what’s around us.

Offering ourselves a little kindness - perhaps that’s acceptance, forgiveness, or self compassion - can literally change how we orient.

What does kindness look like to you?

What exists around us, nature and our environment, inherently offers us support. We exist in a beautiful plane between gravity, the earth, and the sky. This creates a web of support for us to rest in. Trust is connection to support. And sometimes all it takes is remembering that support is there, even when it doesn’t feel like it. This is the practice.

More Than Myself

I am now more than myself. Having brought life into this world, I am no longer only me. I have expanded into mother, into a container for more than me. My daughter is an extension of me. Not because I want her to be like me, and not because I own her in any way. Rather, because my heart has grown exponentially, and perhaps a reason for my very existence has been to usher her into the world, to help her become herself, to hope that my love can help her see the light and be her light amidst the chaos of this world. I will forever be more than myself because of her. This is the greatest gift I could imagine. 📸
