Honoring our Mother

The Sacred Story Project

Motherlove and Motherloss
Cynthia Winton-Henry

Oakland, CA

May 5th Saturday 10-3pm (The Full Moon)

Honor thy mother and father isn't a command. It's how we maintain the stream of ancestral energy that feeds our life and the life of our chidlren.. What story do we tell of Motherlove and Motherloss? What song do we sing? What dance connects us to HER? Lack of hearing these stories leaves a hole. This is how we know it is sacred. The Sacred Story Project uses InterPlay tools that allow people to * dscover what story wants to be told. * tell big stories in simple ways and small stories in heartfelt ways. • use Voice Quilt recordigs to honor our Mother on Mother's day, May 13. • send recordings to daughters, sons, cousins, nieces, friends, you or your mother. "When someone deeply listens to you, your bare feet are on the earth and a beloved land that seemed distant is now at home within you." John Fox

Cost: 20-80 sliding scale

Leaders
Cynthia Winton-Henry
Cynthia Winton-Henry, M.Div., co-founded InterPlay and Body Wisdom, Inc., with Phil Porter. Her interest in supporting body and soul led her to curate the Hidden Monastery Online Dance Chapels and courses for those seeking the spiritual intelligence needed for our time at cynthiawinton-henry.com.. As an artist, auhtor and mentor, she can be found on Substack at The Dancing Center where her research into "what the body wants" in community arts, shelters, churches, businesses, classrooms, and everyday life led her to create the somatic curricula she needs to address racism, leadership for the Earth, and the Arts of Ensoulment. Featured on the Body Intelligence Summit, Spiritual Directors International, and as a credential facilitator for the Sacred Dance, her publications include What the Body Wants; Dance - A Sacred Art: Discovering the Joy of Movement as Spiritual Practice, Chasing the Dance of Life: A Faith Journey, and The Art of Ensoulment: How to Create From Body and Soul..
