Just Sit There, Wednesday 7pm

3 Peeps

Tonight we held the first 'Just Sit There'.  Uschi, Lisa and Katherine came.  We cued regions of the spine, opened the hips a little and then just sat there.  Awesome.

I am interested in learning how to hold the space for sitting as well as cultivating a group that likes to sit together.  At the end we shared which I seemed like fun and confirmed the newness of it.
