Meet ~ Move ~ Melt ~ Mesmerize ~ Magic

When we listen closely, we can hear the Melody of our Hearts and those around us singing. Sometimes they sing in Joy and Compassion and other times they remind us to be present with our Fear, our Anger and our Sadness. When we listen to the messages we have the opportunity to meet, be with, move and express our deepest desires and yearnings. It’s the uncomfortable emotions, expressed effectively that bridge the gap to Joy and Compassion. This series of Heartbeat level day workshops is a space to move and be moved by the Melody of our Hearts towards Transformation. You are welcome to join all, one or a few. Attendance at all 5 will count towards the 5 Day Heartbeat pre-requisite for the 5Rhythms teacher training path.

Heart Melody
Riding the Wave of Fear

Meet ~ Move ~ Melt ~ Mesmerize ~ Magic

Are you living your full potential? Taking risks, letting go of the illusion of control, dancing into opportunities and allowing yourself to be vulnerable? If you are, congratulations you are allowing anxiety to be a creative, forward moving tool rather than holding you back. Anytime we are passionate about something and unable to ensure the outcome, anxiety can and will arise. Shifting fear into a catalyst of movement we can dance into new ways of being with ourselves, others and the world around us. Turning anxiety and our inner critic into a mentor rather than a controller.

Do you settle for less than you deserve?
Does social anxiety rob you of connection with others?
Are you miserable in your job, yet afraid to make a change?
Do you procrastinate on tasks that if completed would benefit you?
Does your perfectionist hold you back?

Join us in Riding the Wave of Fear where we will tackle some of the fears that hold us back, turn anxiety into a useful tool and dance into living our full potential.

When we listen closely, we can hear the Melody of our Hearts and those around us singing. Sometimes they sing in Joy and Compassion and other times they remind us to be present with our Fear, our Anger and our Sadness. When we listen to the messages we have the opportunity to meet, be with, move and express our deepest desires and yearnings.

Harmony Waves online Community Connection

This Sunday we will move to the inspiration of Anilah! Her music calls to our ancestral roots, connection to nature and cultivates a sense of peace within self. It is an honor to share and move as a collective to her masterful creations.

Join us Sunday 11:30 to 1:00pm

Inspiration on Anilah’s compositions

“The music of Anilah is born from a practice that is deeply inspired by nature and a willingness to engage with the natural world within a framework of reciprocity. In this way, artistic expression becomes a symbiotic relationship with the elements. All of the music is composed in nature, while walking or in meditation. An unspoken conversation occurs which influences the composition, and by entering into this state, I find myself listening to melodic structures that are inherent within all of nature. There is a widening of the senses, and an unraveling of conceptual boundaries. My art and music are continuously influenced by these practices which cultivate benevolence, compassion, and gratitude.” (https://anilah.bandcamp.com/album/invoking-the-numinous)

Meet Anilah

Residing on the beautiful west coast of British Columbia, Anilah is the solo project of composer and vocalist Dréa Drury. For the first 18 years of her life, she lived in a rural village of 50 people in the heart of the Kootenay Mountains. Her experiences there, as well as her love for nature, wilderness, and the world of the elements, has inspired her to write music which directly reflects their influence.

Since the release of Anilah’s first EP “Warrior” in 2014, Dréa has been fascinated with the interplay between creative expression, psychoacoustic sound design, and the natural environment. Ethereal and evocative soundscapes create a stunning backdrop for her unique vocal style, which has been cultivated after two decades of studying both traditional folk-chant and classical North Indian Raga melodies under the late Ali Akbar Khan.

In 2015, Anilah collaborated with Einar Selvik (Wardruna, and History Channel Vikings composer) to create a remix of her title track “Warrior,” which is an epic blend of contemporary songwriting and traditional Norwegian folk instrumentation. Since this release, she has continued to experiment with an approach to writing music that revolves around the power of the voice and the use of minimalist composition. 

Community Dialogue with Evangelos

Join us for an evening with Evangelos in community dialogue around our relationship to money. This isn't a conversation where you are convinced that money will save you from the struggles of life. It's a talk where you will learn how your personal struggles with life are played out and communicated through money behaviors. We will look at and identify unresolved challenging patterning. The money flows to the open vessel so if you want to thrive, you need to empty out the useless inherited stories from the past.

You are invited to join us for the whole weekend workshop and apply the $20 fee towards the workshop! This talk is no charge for those registered for the weekend ThriVe: The Motion of Money with Evangelos.

Time: 6:30-8:15pm Date: Wednesday, November 6, 2019

Location: The White Box Theater, 2590 Truxtun Rd #205, San Diego, CA 92106

Exchange: $20, you are welcome to bring a friend, loved one or any that you feel would be called to this offering. Drop-in Welcome

Contact: Christina@Harmonywaves.net or go to Christina5Rhythms.com for more information on weekend workshop and Wednesday night talk.

In this dialogue you will

• Discover your current Archetypes to help you identify when you are in a challenging pattern. These archetypes show us what we don't want to be and uncovers what we want to move towards!

• Be able to see the archetypes in other people. This saves us time and frustration when working with potential business partners, loved ones and friends.

• Healthier relationships

• Move from scarcity and fear to thriving through choice

• Becoming the Hero of your own Money story

• Take part in the full weekend workshop to further expand your possibilities

About Evangelos:

Evangelos is a facilitator, trainer and behavioral money coach. Evangeols incorporates his offerings of 5Rhythms movement meditation, behavioral money awareness and meditation in his powerful work on bringing light and awareness to the impact money has on our lives, relationships and choices. He travels the world bringing this much needed, taboo topic into the forefront of our awareness so that we may step into choice rather than unhealthy patterns, assisting each of us to learn how to thriVe!

Here is what people have to say about Evangelos’ Talks:

“This was a transformative experience on many levels. Evangelos’ expert, unpretentious manner instilled me with a new confidence in my own ability to rethinking and reboot my money-related mental models. The experience was empowering and exhilarating, and I’m only beginning to apply all that I have learned.” John Munroe, CEO Gaia Works, Tokyo Japan

“Evangelos has a way of gently but firmly guiding me to the answers I already know. Having someone who is as knowledgable of not just the financial, but also the emotional and mental roadblocks has helped me become more confident in my ability to create the life I desire.” Anthony Fernando, Professional Photographer in Winnipeg Canada

Body Talk: Asking for What you Want
A 5Rhythms® day Workshop

Do you find yourself struggling to ask for what you want? Many of us hold back from expressing our true desires, wants and needs.

In this day long workshop we will utilize the 5Rhythms map as a way to explore discovering our wants and needs, effectively expressing what we discover, letting go of all that holds us back, while opening up to all possibilities.

5Rhythms is a movement meditation practice that allows us to connect with our body, mind and heart while learning the language of our body expression. Our bodies hold a vast amount of experience and knowledge, when we learn how to listen, express, surrender, expand and integrate through the 5Rhythms map we can communicate more effectively with ourselves and others.

Dancing into our power, presence and freedom.

Adventurous Heart

a 5Rhythms Heartbeat Level Workshop

with Kierra Foster Ba

In  Adventurous Heart we begin with recognizing how fear moves and shapes each of us in relationship to ourselves, others and in a group dynamic. Belonging is a basic need that when unmet can turn inward and lead to a deep sense of loneliness even when we are with others. Meeting our fear, expressing it and letting it go creates a shift from “fitting in” to “belonging” and being accepted just as we are moment to moment. Fear leads to performance, giving ourselves away to feel accepted. Tapping into the courage in our body and hearts we practice the art of vulnerability and showing up just as we are. Moving fear into courageous connection.

“Fitting in is about assessing a situation and becoming who you need to be to be accepted. Belonging, on the other hand, doesn’t require us to change who we are; it requires us to be who we are.” 

Brene Brown

Adventurous Moving Hearts we welcome you to explore, dance and connect. This is an advanced level workshop and requires attendance at a weekend, day workshop or 5 previous classes of 5Rhythms. Workshop counts as one day of Heartbeat level work towards teacher training.

Emerging Presence
5Rhythms Workshop with Christina

Presencia Emergente
Taller de 5 ritmos con Christina.
(Scroll down for English Version)

En Presencia Emergente, exploramos el arte de pasar de la desconexión a la presencia. Ese lugar de despertar cuando nuestro cuerpo nos llama a escuchar y responder, en lugar de operar en piloto automatic, con patrones obsoletos que ya no sirven a nuestro ser superior.

El fluir nos conecta con la presencia de nuestro cuerpo intuitivo.

Staccato alimenta el fuego de nuestro corazón expresivo, aprendiendo nuevas formas de comunicar nuestra verdad.

El caos nos permite liberarnos de las restricciones y rendirnos a todos lo que espera para manifestarse.

Lírico nos mueve a todas las posibilidades.

Y la conciencia de lo que es la Quietud emerge en presencia de nuestro auténtico espíritu en cada respiración que nos da forma.

Este taller será una exploración grupal de todo lo que surja cuando nos tomemos el tiempo de movernos con la presencia, emergiendo en nuestra verdad en cualquier momento y dándonos permiso a nosotros mismos y a los demás para que seamos exactamente como somos: momento a momento, respiración por respiración y conexión a conexión. Les doy la bienvenida a todos a danzar en presencia con nosotros en Ensenada, México.

In Emerging Presence we explore the art of moving between disconnect to presence. That place of awakening when our body calls us to listen and respond, rather than operating on auto pilot with outdated patterns that no longer serve our higher being.

Flowing connects us with the presence of our intuitive body

Staccato fuels the fire of our expressive Heart, learning new ways to communicate our truth

Chaos allows us to break free of restrictions and surrender to all waiting to manifest

Lyrical moves us to all possibilities and awareness of what is

Stillness emerges into presence of our authentic spirit in each breath that shapes us

This workshop will be a group exploration of all that emerges when we take time to move with presence, emerging into our truth in any moment while giving permission to ourselves and others to be exactly as we are—moment to moment, breath to breath and connection to connection. I welcome all to dance into presence with us in Ensenada, Mexico.

Discovering your Home Rhythm

6 Week Series

We each have a home rhythm in how we relate to life, relationships and the world around us, dancing to the beat of our own drum. Discovering your home Rhythm can provide insightful information in navigating through the world, facing challenges that arise and becoming more fluid in our approach to life. Do you flow through life, but have difficulty committing? Are you a planner, yet struggle with change? Do you wait until the last minute and fall into ‘out of control’ mode when deadlines arise? Are you a creative shapeshifter, yet at times loose your focus and follow through? Are you an intuitive empath connected to spirit and at times get overwhelmed shifting into numbness to protect yourself? Understanding our shadow and light patterns through the dance empowers us to make conscious choice. In this 6 week series we will delve into discovery together through the dance.

Attending the whole series is recommended to get the full benefits of the work as we move through each of the Rhythms. Following the series will be a Wednesday Sweat Your Prayers with minimal guidance.

Time: 7:45-9:15pm

Dates: Wednesdays, 10/17, 10/31, 11/14, 11/28, 12/5, 12/12

About 5Rhythms Harmony Waves w/ Christina

Are you ready to let go of predictability, explore your internal landscape and express all that you have to offer through movement and the dance? Join Christina, Certified 5Rhythms® teacher, for an embarkment to the Embodied Soul in Harmony Waves. 5Rhythms® is a dynamic movement practice that opens the mind/body connection to experience transformation at its highest level. Moving through the 5Rhythms of flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness we complete a journey called The Wave. In Flowing we connect moment to moment within self, opening the door to Staccato we dive into the beat and give expression to our discovery, allowing our body to be our voice. Chaos provides us the element of releasing and letting go of all that no longer serves us, allowing for recognition of the deepest part of ourselves in Lyrical and lightness and ultimately coming into harmony with our full mind, body, soul connection in Stillness. Each Rhythm offers a wealth of information and unearthing of self-let the music guide you to new terrain. 

All bodies are welcome whether its your 1st or 100th dance. Using a combination of both guided and self-guided practice, the embodied mover is invited to follow his or her truth in the moment
