An Apprenticeship with Water
For Patricia Garcia-Gomez, ethos is a quality of presence, about how you move through the world - & also how the world moves through you. When she left the world of corporate advertising in NYC to do a creative residency on the Greek island of Naxos, she cultivated a daily ritual of ocean swims, one that she has since maintained year-round in Long Island, no matter the temperature & conditions. The potential for magic & metamorphosis draws Garcia-Gomez back to the water every day. In her CreativeMornings/NYC talk, she'll share how invitations to metamorphosis are closer than you think. Join us on October 7 & learn how to welcome everyday rituals that connect you to nature & into your life.
About Patricia Garcia-Gomez
Patricia Garcia-Gomez is a water-practitioner, sensory immersion artist, & the creator of RewildRestore. As the founder of RewildRestore, she invites people into the water as part of a daily practice of listening, sensing, connecting, & knowing. The inspiration began when was in creative residency on the island of Naxos, immersing herself in the soul of the land. While living in a monastery & creating site-specific multi-sensory installations, she began swimming in the Aegean every day. What started out as a refreshing break in the day turned into a life-changing water practice. She is now a year-round swimmer, including freezing winter water temperatures as low as 33 degrees. With the sea as a teacher & guide, she has created a Water Practice that is both physical & meditative, new & ancient, holding & healing, often in transformative ways. And the only thing she loves more than her morning swim ritual is introducing people to water. To introduce someone to the water is to invite them into a relationship. With the sea, the self, with ceremony, the yet to be revealed, & the ready to be released. That's where the magic happens.
Out of water, Patricia Garcia-Gomez is also an award-winning brand creator. She is recognized for crafting the narratives of some of the world's biggest brands, & some of its most beloved. She's currently focused on helping idea leaders create the narrative that places them powerfully & genuinely at the center of their own story & sphere of influence, often creating new languages for what they do.
