SUMMARY:An Introduction to Mindfulness Through Movement and Meditation - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:Mindfulness can be an abstract concept\, difficult to break down\, and challenging to integrate into our lives in an effective way. The Mayo Clinic defines mindfulness as\, “Mindfulness is a type of meditation in which you focus on being intensely aware of what you’re sensing and feeling in the moment\, without interpretation or judgment.” This workshop aims to introduce mindfulness in a relatable way\, to break down common misconceptions\, and to have participants experience mindfulness through movement and meditation. We’ll spend time doing gentle movement with full awareness\, time in meditation further connecting to the present moment\, and time in discussion. Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of mindfulness\, experience the benefits for themselves through the practices\, and feel the power of practicing within a community of others. Suitable for beginners or anyone who wants to refresh their mindfulness practice. \n\n\n\nMonday\, June 19\, 7 to 8:30 p.m.Public $24\, Members $21 (plus applicable taxes and fees) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Susan Czyzo\n\n\n\nSusan Czyzo supports adults in living active\, mindful and grounded lives so that they can do what they love and lead meaningful lives. Susan does this through mindfulness coaching and teaching\, physiotherapy\, and Pilates. Her approach to health and healing is an active and holistic one. She wants to leave her clients feeling secure and inspired to take action towards better physical and mental health. Knowing that most of us lead busy lives\, Susan strives to help her clients make shifts that are accessible and sustainable\, and to pass on the tools they can use long after she stops working with them. A lover of the outdoors\, Susan believes that when we take care of our health\, we’re also helping to take care of the planet. \n\n\n\nRegistration Deadline: Friday\, June 16 at 12 p.m. \n\n\n\nSafe Program Access \n\n\n\n\nTo ensure the safety of our participants and instructors\, all staff\, volunteers\, and participants are welcome to wear masks indoors and maintain physical distancing.\n\n\n\nTo learn more about what we’re doing to make your next visit safe\, enriching\, and uplifting\, please review our list of Frequently Asked Questions.\n\n\n\n\nPlease review our Refund Policy and Terms of Agreement.

SUMMARY:TBG Farmers Market Film Festival - Open Sesame: The Story of Seeds
