Adventures In The Field
Embodied Practice Manual
& therapeutic Companion
a somatic wellbeing quest in pixel and cell
2018 - 2024
Adventures In The Field was an evidence-based experiential site designed by Live Particle as an interactive embodied practice manual. Treated like a self-paced course, this beautifully designed site was a meditation for the senses. Bringing embodied practices into your home, it got you moving, sounding and sensing day-to-day in your own way and exploring fascinating natural structures and systems inside and out.
Though the site is no longer available, the extraordinary content collections are in Soma Roma. Read below for more on the Adventures In The Field project.
