Gabriela Green Olea – Body as Mapu
An Iso-somatic Session
Body as Mapu (land) is a gentle meditation that draws upon the natural landscapes we remember in our bodies.
It invites us to imagine the body as natural terrain as we pay respect to the land we are on and make connection to those lands afar. From this grounded place we move. This meditation features words in Mapudungun, language of the Maphuce people, First People of central and south Chile.
