Peace Channel...coming soon at www.movingpeace.org!!!

The "Peace Journey" will start on the 31st of january 2012. First country visited: India, the country in which Mahatma Gandhi was born. So I decided to start my investigation in the "Land of Peace", during 28 days, asking everyday local people and visitors about their idea of Peace/Shanti. It'll be a "low-cost" journey, with low-cost technology (a compact digital camera which makes three minutes videos, a small light, a netbook and a cellular phone of Paleozoic Era). I want to demonstrate that it's not important to spend lot of money to get the latest version of the newest tech-item if you have enough interesting and deep content to show. It's a challenge...I know!!! But I'm sure that the people I'll meet during my journey have lot of wise thoughts to share with the rest of the World.

E-mail from Marjo Bochove (Netherlands), about peace and communication

Namaskar Frederica,

Thank you for your visit and stay here at Shishugra. I don' t know how they call it here in India.
For me it was a pleasure to talk with you because you inspired me too.
Your job is a beautiful job and very interesting.
Well we talked a lot but I think you mean my vision: we are all part of one world and not a part of our own city! It' s impossible to close your eyes and tell other people: you may not be my neighbour. We use twitter, facebook and all modern facility's to reach the whole world and than see no to your neighbour from Africa or somewhere else.......
You can turn things to set an example. I keep on saying namaste in India to everybody and so many times you see a big smile because people are not used to someone saying hello.

5 días en Orissa…

Yoga y PAZ

El yoga como herramienta para la construcción de la paz

El yoga, palabra sánscrita cuya raíz significa “unión”, es una disciplina holistica que ha sido practicada en Oriente durante miles de años, y que en Occidente ha empezado a difundirse a partir del siglo XX, y no para de atraer nuevos buscadores de paz.

Se trata de un sistema enfocado al desarrollo del ser humano, que tiene mucha relación con la psicología en cuanto ésta se concentra en el conocimiento de la conducta humana.
B.K.S. Iyengar, uno de los más grandes y conocidos maestros de yoga (que fue además entre los primeros en llevar esta disciplina a Occidente) escribe lo siguiente en su libro, “La Luz del Yoga”:

The final countdown...

In 4 days the trip starts, and Peace Channel will be on-line!!!
Looking forward to that moment!!!

In the picture below, you can see the "high technology tools" I will use for the program...Laughing is allowed!!!

Danza-terapia per la Pace

Danza-terapia por la Paz

Danza terapia en Educación por la Paz
“Los hombres no se hacen en el silencio, sino en la palabra, en el trabajo, en la acción, en la reflexión.” (Paulo Freire).
Después de tres años trabajando en una ONG dedicada a la Educación por la Paz, y posteriormente a los estudios de Danza Movimiento Terapia y Mediación de Conflictos, decidí intentar desarrollar un método que permitiese utilizar las dos disciplinas conjuntamente para el mismo fin.
La paz no es solo ausencia de guerra, ni significa ausencia de conflictos. Las relaciones humanas son siempre conflictivas y la superación pacífica y positiva de estas situaciones es la auspicable forma de convivencia armónica de las distintas culturas, pueblos, religiones, sexos, razas.

Dance-therapy for Peace

Dance-therapy for Peace
Men have learnt how to fly like birds,
have learnt to swim in the depths of the sea like fish,
but we have not learnt the noble art of living like brothers
(Anonymous)
- Introduction
After three years working in a non-profit organization dedicated to
education for peace and having studied a postgraduate in conflict
management and a master in dance movement therapy, I decided to try
to develop a method that enables the two disciplines together for the
same purpose.
Peace is not only the absence of war, nor does the absence of conflict. Human
relations are always in conflict, and peaceful resolution of these situations is the
auspicable way of harmonious coexistence of diverse cultures, peoples,
religions, genders, races.
