In this episode we talked to Sandra Gojic, an educator passionate about movement and creating spaces where young people can express themselves. The way Sandra explores this is through Embodied Learning: an educational method that has been around for a while. In our conversation our guest shared her story, how is it was difficult for her to express herself through her body, something many of us can probably relate to. There is a tendency to talk about feelings, thoughts and emotions, from our heads, we rationalize. Yet, we all have had times that our bodies, through our senses, helped us understand more about the world. Maybe ignoring our bodies’ wisdom doesn't serve us very well. Embodied Learning shows us that we can learn more and better about ourselves and how we relate to the world around us if we use ou body as a multi-sensorial platform of perception. While working with young people there are a lot of benefits of this approach, and it doesn't have to be complicated, our bodies can serve as tools to navigate all the information that is being throwned at us, by paying attention to it, by contacting with all the sensations that run through us. Amazing conversation about the advantages of being in our bodies, the most present and grounded place we can be. Links and books, and resources mentioned in the podcast: The Embodiement Conference Embodied Change, KA2 project Embodied Facilitator The Embodiement Podcast The Art of Somatic Coaching: Embodying Skillful Action, Wisdom, and Compassion by Richard Strozzi-Heckler The Embodied Teen by Susan Bauer Moves: a sourcebook of ideas for body awareness and creative movement by Katya Bloom and Rosa Shreeves Dance Improvisation: Warm Ups, Games and Choreographic Tasks by Justine Reeves
