Darby Crouss is sharing with us a “Day of Joy.”

Movement for Equanimity (MFE) is a simple fascia movement practice. Join Judy and learn to move mindfully in ways that cultivate well-being and joy.

 Judy’s class is a fascia movement class designed to support more inner ease, movement range, and physical pleasure by developing qualities of glide, elasticity, tensile strength, and plasticity. Bring health to your Fascia and feel more equanimity, resilience, and joy.

Do you have a practice that cultivates JOY? One easy and simple practice is to embody pleasure from our senses mindfully. The largest sensory organ in our bodies is the Fascia, and like taste, smell, touch, sight, and hearing, our kinesthetic sense is the body informed by fascia receptors. Formed as a 3-dimensional tissue network wrapping and connecting every organ, bone, and muscle, Fascia is a living, interconnected tensional web contributing to our shape/form, physiological health, perception, attitude, and postural and movement patterns. Fascia is a highly malleable tissue that continuously adapts to how we stand, move, and think. The mind-body qualities in Fascia inform us about how we feel and experience the sensations within the body, emotions, and mind.
