We freed Tony from the restriction of the skin.
What I learned today:
We can be respectful of and happy with the cadaver.
The Color Wheel of Somanauts. Morning Healing Ritual.
Dealing with cadavers requires us to embrace our own mortality. When uncomfortable, we tend to “check out” of the reality of our body and take a refuge in our mind. It is important to stay grounded and connected to the physical reality of each other. Unexpected emotions could bubble up to the surface. We need a safe container for them during the workshop. It is safe to let it speak and it is also safe not to share. It’s O.K. You process in your own way. We just hold a safe space for ourselves, absolutely with no judgement.
