The more aware and mindful we are of our bodies responses to our needs, and the World, the more we can create compassionate relationships and empathy with others. Frances is passionate about creating space for body mind awareness – finding ways to reconnect our bodies and minds, in recognition that our bodies have a greater capacity for wisdom and knowing than we often acknowledge.
In being mindful of the language of the body in its responses to our needs and thoughts, we can fostering deeper, more compassionate connections with the wider world – benefiting our relationships with ourselves, each other, and the natural world. Wherever possible, this work is offered outside, drawing on direct experiences of the interconnection between our bodies and the natural world. This is also a way to explore our direct experience via metaphor, meaning making, inspiration and physicality.
With a background in physical theatre, holistic acupressure, qi gong & shiatsu and ecological sciences, Frances offers work with groups, and 1:1 sessions. To find out more, visit Connective Space Shiatsu.
