Meet Shirin who presents a short practice to get a feel for the presence and creativity of EARTH's community focused efforts. You can visit our Practice page to learn more about Shirin and see more of her and many others' work.

Here is a description of the practice (with Farsi version below): Some trauma-focused professionals suggest that our sympathetic nervous system makes us to take more space, meaning to expand ourselves and physically become bigger. Whereas our parasympathetic nervous system makes us to take less space - to move inward & become physically smaller. Neither is better/worse - we need both. Shirin calls this exercise “the bud to blossom” to symbolize awareness of times of inward/contracted and outward/expanded movement. This and other mind-body practices can help balance the two divisions of our autonomic nervous system.
