Embodied Listening
Awakening to the Spirit of Place

Sunday 3–Friday 8 September 2023
Campfire in the Heart, Alice Springs

General information

Come, rest, meditate, play, and reflect in the expansiveness of the magnificent central desert, beside ancient red rocks, under giant river red gums, in the sand, and around open fires.

We will be silent, listen, move, make art, sing and tell stories that connect us with ourselves, each other and the spirit of the land herself.

Immerse yourself...

Play in an embodied way using InterPlay tools and principles...

Susanna Pain | Philosophy
My aim is to enable the transformation of individuals and communities in good times and in bad, through change and transition; to create space where people can rest and feel safe with challenges and successes.
I invite inclusiveness, grace, beauty and fun, as well as silence. I shape ritual and space that speaks to hearts and minds.
All my midwifery is undergirded by prayer.
