Osho active meditation: Nataraj
with Shawn
sat  sep 17    12-1pm
The mystic Osho created active meditations to enable us to quiet the mind and release stress. Many meditative techniques require one to sit still and be silent - for many of us accumulated stress makes that difficult. Osho active meditations are designed to release the tensions that block the natural flow of energy in our bodies, so that we may become more peaceful and relaxed. In September we will practice the Nataraj moving meditation. Disappearing in free form dance, then relaxing into silence and stillness.  $10 suggested donation

Tao study group: ageless wisdom for living in the modern world with Stephen Sharkey
sun  sep 25    4-6pm
It is impossible to express Tao with words, but with kind hearted intention, some achieved ones left behind a 'road map' so that those so inclined might find their way home. It is with this generosity of spirit that this group is being offered. At the heart of our course study we will be using the elucidations and translations of  the Taoist Classics by Taoist Master, I Ching Scholar, TCM healer and physician Hua-Ching Ni.  $10 suggested donation


new moon class with Kara Lukowski
wed  sep 28    7:30-8:30pm
The new moon – a time when the moon loses its light as it joins with the sun, beginning a new cycle of unfoldment. By honoring this cycle, we honor the rhythm of nature and the Shakti or power inherent in it. It is this Shakti that gives our lives energy and meaning. We will discuss the energies being created by this cycle and learn (from your own Astrological Chart) how these energies are affecting you. Where is this new cycle taking place for you? Where is your energy best focused for growth and healing over the next 30 days? We will honor the new moon with a fire ceremony and a group meditation, allowing ourselves to tune in, feel, and integrate the information of this rebirth. You are invited to bring your birth details (exact time, place and date) and will receive a free printout of your Indian Astrological Chart.  by donation
