Dry Bones

Empowering people and communities through embodiment practice.

Our Practice

Amidst life’s ruptures, transitions, and inequities, Dry Bones’ gives people the knowledge and skills they need to regulate their body’s stress responses, soothe painful life experiences, build a steady sense of self, and lead vibrant lives.
Dry Bones supports individual and community well-being through workshops, coaching, and immersive experiences that illuminate the restorative and liberating benefits of embodiment practice. Our approach combines nervous system science, somatic awareness, creative expression, and elective ritual to guide the process of embodiment.

Embodiment is a practice of harnessing the body’s intelligence in order to process life events, grow in steadiness, express ourselves authentically, and direct our lives courageously. This approach involves learning how the body works, and how it plays a foundational role in the formation of thoughts, feelings, actions and reactions. Embodiment itself is a process of careful reflection directed by our sensations and physical experience. As we delve into the body’s inner-wisdom, we grow in self-understanding and form habits that foster an enduring state of self assurance.

Our bodies carry us through our lives and are the keeper of our experience. They remember and hold onto our fear, doubt, shame, anger, and regret, as well as express our joy, passion, love, wonder, and contentment. Our bodies are perceptive, and they know what we need in order to be whole.

With care, practice, and support, you can (re)connect to your body’s wisdom and enter a more present and centered way of life. At Dry Bones, we will help you build a practice unique to who you are. We look forward to learning your story and sharing space with you.

Embrace the body. Live empowered.
