ITPI Board Member Article

ITPI Board member Christina Grote leads an adaptation of an LET exercise created by George Leonard. It offers you the opportunity to develop your subtle sensing of the outer world. You can become more aware of and connected with your natural surroundings, and you may come to experience a feeling of reciprocity, and even love, as you feel this deep connection. You may find that touching doesn't have to be limited to physical contact. Through the practice you may experience yourself as being connected with everything in the world and even the universe.

Rachel Hamilton, member of ITPI's board of directors and active practitioner, shares the importance of an ever-evolving practice inspired by her 25 years experience as an Improv directer using a "Yes, And" approach.
