A message from Johanna…
I am a Dance Movement Psychotherapist (DMP), and new to Ochre House. I’m grateful for having discovered the beautiful therapy space here, it’s perfect for movement. Through DMP, I hope to bring my clients the benefits of movement, the joy of creativity, and opportunities for connection.
I’m embracing the summer season by spending more time outdoors and connecting with the outdoor elements through sensory experiences and everyday movement, like walking. I aim to allow mindful moments for rest, stillness, and grounding amidst my busy daily schedules.
Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen’s quote comes to mind:
The mind is like the wind and the body like the sand: if you want to know how the wind is blowing, you can look at the sand.’
My summer reading recommendation is:
