Description

You are invited for an evening of renewal - through art, mindful movement, & a closing sound bath to awaken the soul. Join us as we embody spring: renewing peace, ease, and joy in our bodies, minds, and hearts, using creative expression, journaling, mindful movement, and closing with a sound bath to awaken the soul. During this event, we will have tea & water available but please bring something to snack on if you would like. What to bring: -Water -Snacks to meet your needs (Our class is from 4-7pm) -A yoga mat, blanket, and pillow or 2 (for the sound bath, especially helpful for low back pain as we will be lying on the floor) extra yoga mats will be available, but please if you have one, bring one! -A mug for tea (we will have some extras) -Openness to the experience. Event Details: Art: 4pm-5pm Often, we run around with our minds detached from our bodies- like balloons floating into the past and future while our bodies amble around taking care of business. That distance, between mind and body, is where stress lives. In this session, we aim to draw our balloon-mind closer to our bodies and practice mindfulness using art materials. We’ll pay special attention to our senses; what we see, hear, smell, and feel as we work. We will notice our thoughts and feelings and gently brush them aside as we apply paint to canvas or pencil to paper. The mind wants us to make an identifiable picture, but we will focus on doing the opposite. This is about bringing our awareness back into our bodies. When we practice awareness, we learn how to cultivate peace, making it easier to be patient and compassionate with others and ourselves. Movement: 5pm-6pm Terra Lea will lead a mindful, accessible movement practice incorporating simple yoga, breath and qi gong healing movement on the lawn of Rosehill Center, weather permitting, or inside. Wear comfortable clothes, bring your favorite tea mug, bring a mat, towel or blanket, there will be extras to share. Sound Bath: 6pm-7pm We will end our evening delighting in the sounds of crystal bowls, gongs, and chimes. Savannah will guide us through a sound bath immersion focused on activating the parasympathetic nervous system to heal from the inside out. The intention of this sound bath is to leave rested with an awakened soul to guide you into new beginnings. Savannah facilitates sound baths in Washington state with the mission of achieving tranquility in mind, body, & spirit. Come disconnect, breathe, & reconnect. We look forward to seeing you.
