SUMMARY:Sensing the Dialogic Space: An Embodied Experience
DESCRIPTION:It’s the holiday season\, where society urges us on to feel ever more harried and hurried.

Join Heathmere Center and the Beverly Public Library for a relaxing and transformative embodied practice that will leave you feeling more connected with yourself and those around you. No experience necessary—just a willingness to explore\, let go and come alive!
