The Embodiment Talks (English) - S01 / E03

Introducing myself.... Amy Abdou interviews Marjon (#3)

Amy Abdou talks with Marjon van Opijnen, initiator of this podcast and founder of the Embodiment LAB.

What are important key moments in Marjon's life that lead to launching this podcast. An interesting conversation unfolds about the 'why' of this podcasts, the necessary education systems change and the essence of embodiment in this and other societal change that we are facing.

Every conversation gives me new insights and deepens my perspective on the relation between systems change and embodiment. This conversation is not just a sharing of my motivation and ambition, it's an inquiry in the choices I've made to come to change in the work I did so far.

Over The Embodiment Talks (English)

In this podcast social systems change will be made accessible. In times of societal unrest, political scandals and climate crisis, we, probably unconsciously, question ourselves how to relate to the societal systems in which this is rooted. We often analyse this with our cognition. However, our body anticipates this much faster than our cognition can grasp it.

My name is Marjon van Opijnen, founder of the Embodiment LAB. In this podcast I will unravel the mysteries of our bodies in relation to challenging situations. And how more body awareness can help us to create societal and education change that serves us. I hope that this podcast gives you knowledge and new ideas. And that you can take your role as embodied change agent.

Because….. Concepts and ideas are important to come to change, but if we fail to feel and life through it, little change will happen.

This explorative podcast is about my own search to the relation between societal change and embodiment. I will share background information. I will interview experts and provide exercises. We will think, feel and act!

Great that you are here and I hope you enjoy listening to this podcast!
