Contact and Connection In the Time of Covid 19: What I’ve Learned from InterPlay

Our bodies and souls crave movement, contact, and connection. How do we manage when we are told to shelter in place, maintain social distance, and not to touch our own faces, let alone someone else’s? Adjusting to the “new normal” was a shock to the system. I was delighted to find online opportunities to move and to “connect” with others online through a favorite progam called InterPlay. Through participating I’ve rediscovered a few tools, forms, practices, and principles that are helping me to do more than “survive”. I’ll share them with you in hopes that we can all find some resilience, or at least some “re-silly-ence” to help us through. Let’s play!
