EXPLORATION OF PLAY: an ART EXHIBIT BY MEG GENTRY

PRESENCE OF HEART

5Rhythms Heartbeat Workshop with laura martin-eagle

Within each of us dwells a beating heart playing out the rhythm of our lifetime. Traumas and dramas, joys and surprises~all the stories that we have accumulated and those yet to be experienced. In setting aside our stories we can begin to find the medicine that comes with being in the beat of the present moment.

In this 5-day workshop, we will traverse the emotional map of our beating heart through a journey of rhythms. We will invite the teachers of fear, anger, sadness, joy and compassion to bring us into the beat. We will purposely be PRESENT in the beat of our own hearts. Gabrielle Roth’s 5Rhythm’s Heartbeat map will be the safe container that holds our emotional stew as we move towards PRESENCE with our tender hearts. I hope you will join me in this exploration to deeply listen to our Beat. Heart. Now.

TRE Group Shake

with TRE provider Mariel Ferreiro

Trauma/Tension Release Exercises, commonly known as TRE, is a practice created by David Berceli, Ph.D. “TRE is an innovative series of exercises that assist the body in releasing deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma.” (Berceli). By utilizing these low impact movements along with self-regulation techniques, individuals can activate a safe natural reflex mechanism of shaking, often called a neurogenic tremor. The provider will guide you through the exercises while maintaining a safe and controlled environment allowing you to tremor or shake out existing muscular tension.

Practioners are invited to a bi-monlth group shake. We will gather together to go through Dr. Berceli’s seven exercise sequence, explore our body’s natural tremor, and learn this great self-help tool to better manage daily stress and trauma.  TRE group shake will be held on the first and third Saturdays of the month.

TRE is for all and we will accommodate and make it accessible as much as possible.

Community Kirtan

with Malika & Clark

Come sing with us! Kirtan is from the Indian tradition of Bhakti Yoga, the yoga of devotion, and is practiced by group singing of simple mantras and the names of the divine in various archetypal forms. Whether one comes to kirtan for a sense of community, the joy of devotion, or the pure love of singing, chanting together can lead us to connect with the peace and stillness that is inherent within each of us. No prior experience is necessary.

Malika & Clark have studied traditional Sanskrit chants with Geetanjali Tiwari for 15 years. They lead chanting and Dances of Universal Peace in a variety of settings.
