While more research is needed to fully understand the benefits of dance in the corporate workspace, these studies render visible  that dance can have positive effects on mental and physical health\nas we search for technological solutions structures that serve the common good, we must also participate in communities of care and mindfulness. Dance, which requires the mind and body to work together, offers a unique perspective within Descartes' body/mind duality. Dancers train not only their physical abilities but also their perception and ability to convey something beyond themselves. Moreover, it has the ability to influence the nervous processes of the brain and contribute to happiness and health - it can even stop the ageing process of the brain.\nWe offer physical classes to different communities, bridging dance with web3  -  We believe embodiment is essential to understanding the perfect machine that is the human body -  and we  want to encourage people who digital systems and protocols to train their bodies. This way, their work experience will be fully embodied, and they will gain tools for self-regulation, ensuring balance and mental wellness in a very demanding field\nThrough teaching online, The Body Mind Guild learned how to create trust spaces and free people from the judgement of the eye, even on Zoom. For a non dancer, the dance studio might be an intimidating place - there is this belief in our society that says dance is reserved only to one kind of body - and this couldn\u2019t be further away from the reality.\nWe believe Dance is more ancient than language, society or coin, and there exists a number of feelings and sensations that can only be experienced through motion. It teaches us how to be aware, how to listen to ourselves and others, and ultimately, how to have empathy towards every living being in the world. These seem, for us at The Body Mind Guild, absolutely necessary qualities that the leaders of the technological revolution must possess!\nBringing dance practice to offices, zoom calls, gatherings, into the everyday of a company, it may seem like a very unorthodox way of practicing dance - but as we surprisingly found out , these classes allow for a sense of private dance - we are all dancing together, and even though one does not share a physical space, we rather uphold a space together - you might not dance, but you are the only responsible person for your time. Triggering that sense of responsibility is parallel to the sense of social justice and impact each one of us must share in order to bring forth a new body, an empathic, conscious, aware body that can be instilled in technology.\n\nWe live in a society that wants to humanize robots and actively dehumanises people. We can instil a sense of responsibility, empathy, and care by practising awareness. We are creating a new relationship and economy between dance and tech, as we pave the way for what\u2019s to come in terms of technology, we must do so with the ancient knowledge we possess in our DNA \nAre you ready to dance to the sound of the revolution?", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectTwitter": "Body_By_Onio"}, "recipient": "0xBb0A4f6aA0B630695079e874447FD00F570325F2"}}
