Finding Footsteps of Delight

Eurythmy Webinar – Open to the Public Sunday, April 14 – 7- 8:15 pm EDT

In this Zoom Webinar veteran therapeutic eurythmists, Mary Ruud and Raven Garland, come together to bring you an unique experience of eurythmy exercises using both poetry and music.

ATHENA Webinar: what the Nose knows, with Dr. Cathy Sim

March
26
2023

4:00 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada)

The sense of smell brings much colorful texture to our lives about our inner and outer worlds, from wonderful to disgusting!  I have tried to investigate the sense of smell from a eurythmic and spiritual scientific perspective in order to understand why the loss of smell is common in neurodegenerative disease (Parkinson’s disease being a prime example of this) as well as more recent viral illnesses-such as Covid. Through this doorway of investigation,  one can then find a rich palate of therapeutic eurythmy to meet this  deficit  of smell (anosmia) with art and enthusiasm .”

Fundamentals of Therapy, Case #3: 39-year old musician with chronic inflammations, fatigue and weakness.

Join us for four monthly sessions of interdisciplinary study and discussion as we work through this classic case given by Rudolf Steiner and Ita Wegman. Each meeting includes two presentations on specific aspects of the case (including topics like: temperature curves, fatigue and insomnia in summertime, poultices, potassium, the therapeutic application of bed rest and mental quiet), as well as time dedicated to small group discussions.

This four-part study is offered for us to connect as practicing anthroposophic colleagues and learn from multidisciplinary perspectives. Steiner and Wegman provided these cases as archetypal pictures for study. They become so much more alive and accessible when we study them together!
