Nourishing the Festival Culture.
People are waking up... waking up to what is happening in our
communities and in the world, and it’s not all sweet. There is much
suffering and fighting, deceit and conflict in politics. War persists
between countries and cultures, and it's becoming harder and harder to
avoid. But art has found a way into our hearts and hands and out of our heads, into the collective.
Festivals of many varieties are providing a space to
possibly heal some of this global wounding. Through artistic performance
in musical instrumentation and song, story-telling and dance,
interactive installations, children’s entertainment, street theatre,
etc., healing happens. Festivals have become a retreat, a place to
re-charge and re-member the collective as a cooperative. It is at these
festivals that people find themselves and each other in a world of
beauty, play and unity.
When you venture out of town into the world of festivals, fairs,
concerts and outdoor gatherings, it is extra important, if not
necessary, to stay tuned into your body’s needs and health. When the energy is high and there’s so much to do, there doesn’t seem to be
enough time in the day to have a wholesome, nourishing meal.
Beyond Broth offers a solution. It is possible and encouraged to stay
nourished and light to keep moving and playing out there, whether
you’re on the playa at Burning Man, out in the middle of the forest, in
the mountains or on hot county fairgrounds. Furious dancing, play and
movement calls for extra measures of self-care. Often times, the music
and fun goes until the wee hours of the morning... and it get’s chilly
at night! Then we start all over in the morning often times pushing the
limits. Beyond Broth offers warming and nutritious food to keep you
fueled and your spirits high.
So play and dance on; remembering to laugh, invigorate the soul, drink lots of water and do so with a healthy body and mind!
