Future Blessings

My vision in creating the space for (and even in just naming) Future Blessings is to come together and create something for our children, their children, their children and beyond, through yoga.

The principles that are guiding me in this work are:

• collaboration & interdependence
• creativity
• curiosity
• anti-oppression

In my own life, my practices have completely re-arranged just about everything. Every single angle of the trajectory my life was on prior to yoga has re-aligned. This is huge. There are still patterns I’m locating and shifting, of course, but I am completely re-wired due to the new patterns laid down through connecting with the present, identifying my blindspots and broadening my vision.

Movement, mantra, meditation and mediation (YESS!!!) are the profoundly powerful tools I’ve used to shed old skins and reveal more of my real nature. My wish is to use them not just for my own benefit– or to individuate myself as a “special” practitioner (I’m not!)– but for the purpose of bringing our human species into right relationship with our-selves and our home, this planet.

FUTURE BLESSINGS// an invitation to practice, co-create & transform

WHAT ARE FUTURE BLESSINGS?

Future Blessings is/are a response to reactionary, myopic systems that fail to see beyond the short-term wants of an individual. It’s a framework for coming together to do long-term planning and long-term practice. it’s practice FOR the benefit of future generations.

Future Blessings is an at-home, real-time, co-created practice space facilitated by Kelly Sunrose. Together, we’ll weave yoga philosophy, movement-breath-meditation practice and visioning work to create something together. Future Blessings is an experiment. We have no idea where this will lead. We trust the process.  (Thank you 1008 times for bravely trusting the yoga.)

HOW WILL THIS WORK?

We will gather ONLINE, in REAL-TIME. Our success depends on our coming together. We’ll circle up each day, for three days for 2 hours. Where we’ll go beyond that is up to us!

Rough agenda (we will create the final agenda together)

PRE-WORK: What do we want to do together? What is our vision of the future? What can we offer?

June 6: Opening mantra, opening movement and meditation practice, setting OUR agenda

June 7: Opening mantra, opening movement and meditation practice, work session

June 8: Opening mantra, movement and meditation, summation of work, next steps

What am I hoping for?

A group of friends (that’s you <3) to come together to share ideas, practice, make something and keep going.

How will we know we’re successful?

MOMENTUM, connections (real connection, not just emails added to a list or sales-sales-sales), relationship, collaborations in LIFE, LISTS of what to do next, ideas, volunteering, continued conversations.

What’s next?

If you are interested in this experience/experiment, please let me know by commenting below. We’re circling up LIVE online on June 6, 7 & 8. Before then, I’ll send out some questions to facilitate finding our first steps as a group.

LOVE TO ALL. kelly
