Wellness Wednesdays
This weekly meet up is dedicated to developing tools to calm our mind and strengthen our spirits by using mindfulness and generative somatic practices. This mindfulness and movement-based group is for managing stress, anxiety, and social isolation. In this group, participants can learn techniques to mitigate stress, such as deep breathing and gentle stretching. Through awareness of the emotions and compassion for the body, folks can learn to build a mindfulness practice. This moment of grounding and self-care is important for regulating our emotions and feeling well.
You are by no means expected to be an expert in meditation. You are only expected to show up for yourself and know that this group is FAIL-PROOF. Folks do not need experience in meditation or movement. This is a judgment-free space and all the activities are fail-proof and modifiable for any comfort level. All you need is a paper, pen and a comfy private space to stretch. Pour yourself a cup of tea or cool glass of water, and settle in wit
