30 Day Challenge

Making a Change for Good-Develop a personal practice with compassionate self discipline

How do we break "bad habits" and start good ones, whether it is in the realm of exercise, eating, shopping, or committing ourselves to a spiritual practice such as meditation or a daily home practice of yoga? We have all been led to believe that if we were only a little better in some way, we would find happiness. We are always thinking, "Life isn't the way it should be- and it's my fault!" But no amount of self-punishment will ever make us happy or bring us control over life's problems. The happiness and peace we are looking for is ultimately found only in self-acceptance and kindness.

Making a Change for Good encourages us to focus on what is true for us in this moment so that our experience can be authentic, awake, honest, and joyful.

This 30 day challenge will include daily home study from Making a Change For Good -A Guide to Compassionate Self-Discipline By Cheri Huber, contemplation, journaling, as well as weekly classes with discussion, relaxation, meditation and more.

Meets Mondays Sept 20- Oct 18th 6:45-8:00pm with Molly. Cost - $75.00 includes cost of the book and course materials

 

30 Days of Deep Relaxation

Bring your body into balance. Reduce your everyday stress levels, boost your feelings of wellbeing, build deeper awareness and bolster your health.

When practiced regularly, you will reduce your everyday stress levels and boost your feelings of wellbeing. You will also build deeper awareness and bolster your health with deep relaxation.

Class will consist of a variety of relaxation techniques including guided meditation & imagery, breathwork, and restorative postures.

"Green For Life" by Victoria Boutenko

Many people know that we should eat more greens, but rarely do any of us truly enjoy our kale or wheatgrass. For the first time in history a remarkably enjoyable way of consuming the necessary amount of greens has been created by blending the greens with fruit. From this smoothie, the body can absorb the essential nutrients much more efficiently. Anyone can prepare tasty green smoothies quickly in their own kitchen, with their own choice of ingredients. With green smoothies people gain more control of their own health. Raw Family and "Green For Lifeby Victoria Boutenko
