MINDFUL CREATIVITY WORKSHOP with Tara Remington
Saturday, May 18 from 2-5pm

Art is a gift we give to ourselves.

Lila – Sanskrit for divine creativity- is a gift that comes from a place of joy, self-discovery, self-observation and inner knowing. Tapping into Lila becomes a source of creative-play-consciousness.

Mindfulness is embracing the moment for what it is and letting go of judgment, learning that moment by moment is a continuous adjustment of continuous change. Together Lila & Mindfulness create moments of clarity. During this workshop, you will encounter these moments and remember the innate act of creativity. Discover your inner courage and natural rhythm that will connect your mind, heart and hand. Find joy in discovering new perspectives!

Register today and
give yourself the gift of Creativity!

Workshops include:
Meditation - finding your still point,
Music & Kinesthetic Sensitivity – discover natural rhythm,
Intuitive Drawing – mark making,
Journaling– reflecting,
Circle Time Community – Connect!

Tara Remington Facilitator
Register today, space limited! You must pre-register to attend.

May's book: Wild by Cheryl Strayed

Reviews of this book:

“Spectacular . . . Gripping . . . A breathtaking adventure tale and a profound meditation on the nature of grief and survival . . . A literary and human triumph.”
—Dani Shapiro,
New York Times Book Review

“I was on the edge of my seat. . . . It is just a wild ride of a read . . . stimulating, thought-provoking, soul-enhancing.”
—Oprah Winfrey, on Wild, first selection of her Book Club 2.0

“One of the most original, heartbreaking and beautiful American memoirs in years.” —Michael Schaub, National Public Radio

“This isn’t Cinderella in hiking boots, it’s a woman coming out of heartbreak, darkness and bad decisions with a clear view of where she has been.” —The Seattle Times

GONG BATH MEDITATION with Loren Crawford
Sunday, May 26 from 6:30 - 7:30pm

Experience the healing power of gong and mantra on the fourth Sunday of every month. We begin with light yoga (suitable for any body) and then move into a deep relaxation with a beautiful Paiste symphonic gong. The gong is a reinforced vibration that impacts the entire body by releasing stress, unwinding nerves, and bringing the mind to total calm. The yogis say that the human body is like a wonderful musical instrument constructed with meridians that allow an inflow of healing and energy to cascade like a waterfall. Following the gong bath, we will engage in a meditation using mantra to further refresh and renew ourselves- re-creating ourselves for the week! What better way to start it?

Donations from the heart welcome!

YOU ARE A MULTIFACETED JEWEL

Walt Whitman said, "I am large. I contain multitudes." And so do you. And so does this program.
So much more than a series of weekend workshops, so much more than a static, set-in-stone curriculum indoctrinating you into a method, this training will help us radically affirm all
parts of ourselves, even our shadows, so that we all may learn more about unconditional love and live our fullest lives.
