  • "For most of human history, societies have recognized that the world’s reality is most intimately experienced in terms of its aliveness." – New Self, New World Photo by Shane Stagner on Unsplash __________ . . . . . #radicalwholeness #theembodiedpresentprocess #Embodiment #PhilipShepherd #TEPP #embodiedpresent #Wholebody #Mindfulness #Wholeness #NewSelfNewWorld #RadicalWholenessWorkshop
  • In the Bellingen, Australia area? Come along Friday Feb 21 from 7 - 9 pm to Bello Youth Hub at 2 William St. I’ll be giving a talk called "The Forgotten Harmony" Disharmony is something we live with and accept as inevitable. We feel it in our bodies, our relationships and our daily lives. We also see it in the world around us, as human activity creates havoc for nature’s delicate harmonies. At the centre of these disharmonies is our way of being, pulling both nature and our lives out of balance.. For more information click the link in bio and go to the Upcoming events page.
  • "Humans are arguably the most adaptable of animals. We live in arid deserts, frozen tundra, overpopulated cities and outer space. Adaptability has been the cornerstone of our survival; but it also has a dark side. Sometimes we adapt in ways that are corrosive to our well-being. As songwriter Bruce Cockburn put it, “The trouble with normal is it always gets worse.” " To read the whole post click the link in bio and look for An Antidote for The Age of Anxiety. __________ . . . . . #radicalwholeness #theembodiedpresentprocess #Embodiment #PhilipShepherd #TEPP #embodiedpresent #Wholebody #Mindfulness #Wholeness #NewSelfNewWorld #RadicalWholenessWorkshop #theembodimentconference
  • The work I share with people really comes to life when it is experienced in the presence of nature, and when there is enough time to live with it intimately over days. That's exactly what is offered by the upcoming four-day retreat in Govinda Valley (NSW, Australia), and why I'm so looking forward to being there. If you yearn to connect with your life in a way that brings clarity, freshness, ease and newfound purpose to it, please consider joining me.

  • ”I’ve read speculative articles about the lack of enduring works of art in the past decades. It seems to me that there may be some basis to the claim, and I have no simple answer to it. I do know this much, though: an artist who creates out of ideas rather than from his or her felt relationships with the world—in all its unknowability—tends to date quickly. Artworks that are created in compliance with ideas are concerned with solving problems or presenting meaning or even supplanting meaning. That’s what ideas are for. Such works tend to represent a world that is mechanical, one that not only refuses to be guided by sensuality, but presents a triumph over it: art without heart—the modern infatuation. However meaningful or earnest or disturbing it may be at the time, such art has a way of appearing quaint as the years go by. Answers come and go. Only the great mysteries endure, shaping all that is. And when an artist primarily shapes his work by idea, he evicts mystery.” – Philip Shepherd, New Self, New World __________ . . . . . #radicalwholeness #theembodiedpresentprocess #Embodiment #PhilipShepherd #TEPP #embodiedpresent #Wholebody #Mindfulness #Wholeness #NewSelfNewWorld #RadicalWholenessWorkshop
  • “I feel like what I was missing in all the other modalities were solid grounding techniques. I have struggled a lot with that in all modalities and feel like I now have the tools to continuously ground myself, and notice when i trampoline. ” – Radical Wholeness workshop participant __________ . . . . . #radicalwholeness #theembodiedpresentprocess #Embodiment #PhilipShepherd #TEPP #embodiedpresent #Wholebody #Mindfulness #Wholeness #NewSelfNewWorld #RadicalWholenessWorkshop #theembodimentconference #embodimentretreats #embodimentretreat #waiheke #waihekeisland #waihekeyoga #yogawaiheke #donnafarhi #christchurchyoga #christchurchnewzealand
