Abstract

In this article, I present a brief introduction to somatic practice of felt thinking in movement, as a contemplative practice for ecological belonging. Accompanied by illustrations, coming from my personal practice, the text introduces the reader to three phases of experiential immersion and presents felt thinking as an inclusive method of embodied re-connection with the natural world. Through the lens of embryological development and dynamic activity patterns observable in movement, it also elaborates on different realities of time/space experience. Finally, alongside the first-person narratives, as examples of outdoor practice, I also introduce some major references to the theoretical framework of the work and underline the importance of an ontological principle of movement as relational, thus infused with meaning and care, which can be accessed and practised in felt thinking starting with gentle attention to the movement of the breath.
