Wear your silly hat, onsie &/or costume (encouraged not required) Let's balance the scales towards joy!
Supurb Sunday - Silliness Edition
Online InterPlay Playgroup
Christine Gautreaux, MSW
Sunday, May 17th. 2PM EST/ 1PM CST/ 12 MST/ 11AM PST
“It's okay to be absurd, ridiculous, and downright irrational at times; silliness is sweet syrup that helps us swallow the bitter pills of life.”
? Richelle E. Goodrich, Making Wishes
As a recovering serious person InterPlay has been one of my greatest gifts. This pandemic has had me swimming in some serious seriousness and I'd love a break!
In the midst of great sorrow, we must have joy to survive.
Come join Christine Nichols Gautreaux for her monthly InterPlay playgroup-
Join us even if you’re not feeling superb or silly - hopefully after an hour + of movement & storytelling the laughter will return.
This month we'll be playing with silliness - you are invited to show up in a fun silly hat, a onesie and/or costume (not required just recommended).
InterPlay is an improvisational system that is an active creative way to unlock the wisdom of the body. Devoted to fun, InterPlay integrates body, mind, heart, and spirit in a “sneaky deep” way. It also teaches the language and ethic of play in a powerful way. Research shows it reduces stress which we know improves our immune systems!
Recently the co-founder of InterPlay was asked what InterPlay was and keeping in mind the currently situation our country finds itself in she replied, "A solution."
$10 requested- more if you can/less if you can’t
As a teaching artist, I know how much this quarantine has disrupted our way of life so please don’t let $$ stop you from joining.
