Embracing the New (Year): Birthing, Dying, and Continuum

“A living organism contains a vast potential for innovation by containing an intelligence that can elicit new pathways to optimize internal life processes. What may appear to be frozen and dormant can throb with currents of life, all of it taking place within the profundity of a fluid recapitulation.”

– Emilie Conrad

What are you birthing in your life? What are you ready to let go of?

As we begin a new year, we are engaging in a birth. We tend to be aware of potential for this new year and may set our resolutions accordingly. We seldom acknowledge that the past year has just died. Every birth involves a death. A baby birthing out of the womb is also dying to life in the womb. Both birth and death involve passing through a portal to or from the Mystery.

Continuum is a mindful movement practice that emphasises orienting to what is new, what is novel, what is unfamiliar. We aim to acknowledge when we are engaging in habitual patterns and to make the conscious choice to orient to what else might be possible here. What else might be here that I am not paying attention to because of my habits?

Continuum has been described by its founder, Emilie Conrad, as an enquiry into our fluid nature. Where we are locked in habit and pattern, we are less fluid. When we listen for what is unfamiliar, we discover what we have forgotten or ignored, perhaps from the time of our birth or even before.

This time, as we birth a new year and let go of an old one, supports us in engaging in something different than our usual. In the process, we find ourselves becoming less stuck, more fluid, more creative, more curious, as we explore unknown territories.
