Slow Marrow: A Marinating Conversation with Sandrine Harris.

I loved this slow marination of conversation with my colleague Sandrine Harris. Delicious as molasses. We wove our way through exploring Marrow as fundament and vitality, spoke of how the journey through trauma restoration and recovery takes time, and is a both a field of support and eventually an invitation to rediscovering pleasure and curiosity, playfulness, and the capacity to once again receive. We meandered through the ephemeral nature of making images in the ecosystems around us. And we remembered how all of these things, exist together in a space of deep integration. You can watch our conversation on Vimeo - I highly recommend this way of joining us.
