Freeze. Run. Fight. Play! Humans, like all mammals, rely on our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems to respond to danger and safety in the world. But in a time when the world feels incessantly dangerous, our body has a hard time keeping up. In this participatory online playful ritual, we’ll explore how we respond to threat, and how we create safety. Audio narration, sound, and on-screen text will guide participants through simple story-based moments to experience from home. Together we’ll consider how our mammalian nervous systems adapted to keep us alive, and what we can learn by listening to them.
