About This Event
Heart of the Season: Spring
Wednesdays, April 1, 8 & 15, 6pm - 8pm
with Dave Eyerman
Explore the seasonal themes of spring through the lenses of Chinese Medicine and other Earth-based spiritual practices. In this three-week class, licensed acupuncturist and shamanic practitioner Dave Eyerman will guide participants in understanding how this season affects their body, emotions, and energy, through a mix of teaching, group discussion, time outdoors, and guided meditation.
Spring is the season of literal and metaphorical renewal and rebirth. It is the time of setting intentions for the year and making plans to accomplish them. It can also be a time of great frustration and impatience, especially as Winter and Spring jockey back and forth weather-wise.
In Chinese Medicine, spring is associated with the Wood element and the Liver and Gallbladder acupuncture meridians. These channels govern planning, decision-making, stress management, creativity, and growth of all kinds. In spring, these energies are stimulated physiologically, and learning how to contextualize your personal experience with the energy of the season empowers you to navigate your life with greater ease and flow.
Participants will learn practical seasonal self-care strategies, ways to support physical and emotional balance, and simple techniques for connecting with natural cycles. All the practices shown are designed to help everyone develop their own personal relationship with the land and its seasonal rhythms. Sliding Scale $60, $75 or $90 for the 3 sessions.
Dave Eyerman is a teacher/facilitator, helping people reconnect with their most natural rhythms through connecting with the planet. With over 15 years experience as a licensed acupuncturist and shamanic practitioner, he brings a grounded and non-dogmatic view to spiritual practice, encouraging his clients and students to reclaim their birthright of belonging to the natural world.
