Mackenzie Amara
Co-ordinating the Embodiment Tent "Hi. I'm Mackenzie. I’m here to help you come to your senses—literally—through deep embodiment, nondual awareness, & penetrating insight. I am a soul-scientist, thought-rebel, & embodiment enthusiast. A dancer, psychological spelunker, & symbol reader, I delight in the intersection between body & mind. I relish paradox, take pleasure in mystery, & effortlessly attune to the sacred in the profane. I am student of my body, depth psychology, & nonduality. Above all, I am committed to living a life of radical responsibility & igniting freedom for any & all beings brave enough to truly want it. I stand, above all, for radical responsibility & rigorous self-awareness." To get in touch with Mac directly about contributing to the Embodiment tent: mackenzie.amara@gmail.com The Red Tent:
