Designed to combat the mental and physical repercussions of everyday stress. Still the mind, increase balance and capacity for healing, boosts immune system functions, and deeply relaxes the body to alleviate built up stress.
A meditative form of yoga with a focus on breathwork and longer-held poses. More relaxed, passive, and slow-paced, allowing the body tissue to rest and recover. Restorative yoga releases mind-body tension by moving at a slower, more-relaxed pace that allows the body tissues to rest and recover. Props, such as blocks, straps, and bolsters, may be used to support your pose with ease to achieve relaxed comfort.
Restorative yoga works with the parasympathetic nervous system, which targets our response to stress in the body. Slow poses paired with breathwork can slow down the heart rate while increasing blood flow to your vital organs.
CLASS LENGTH: 60 minutes

Wellness Through Art: Coping & Creating
2023-02-11 13:30 - 15:00, 2023-02-25 13:30 - 15:00 (America/New_York)
Wellness Through Art classes are used to reduce debilitating symptoms, provide opportunities for expression and resolution of painful memories, and enhance stress reduction through art-based relaxation techniques and coping skills. By definition, “Art therapy engages the mind, body, and spirit in ways that are distinct from verbal articulation alone. Kinesthetic, sensory, perceptual, and symbolic opportunities invite alternative modes of receptive and expressive communication, which can circumvent the limitations of language.”
Through the creation of art, Wellness Through Art classes, enrich the lives of individuals and the community and presents a myriad of tools combining the creative process, psychological theory, and the human experience to help individuals cope, blossom, and heal.
What is Mindful Dot Art?
The type of art used for this class activity is pointillism. Basically, you use dots to form a bigger whole. Using small dots to form a bigger whole can be really reflective of a lot of things in our lives. There are many aspects of us, parts that make us who we are, our job is to try to integrate them. It’s when we allow different parts of ourselves to take over and act out of balance that a problem arises. Integrating our parts is a lifelong process.
Using dots also helps us develop the ability to slow down and be in the moment. It increases our level of mindfulness. Society tells us we are what we do, so we constantly hustle and strive to do more. We might increase productivity yet feel depleted afterwards. Why? Because we are doing things in a robotic way, not connected to the reason we are doing things. We are doing without intention. This activity forces us to slow down.
About the Instructor: Heather Hostetter, MA, MBA, ATR-BC, LPC is a local Art Therapist and artist with over 25 years of helping the community cope and strive towards wellness with the process of creating together.

Sound Meditation With Monica Mullen
Start with a guided meditation paired with instruments to navigate the busy mind and allow the body to enter relaxation so it can restore itself in its natural rhythm.
Sound therapy has been an integral part of Monica’s spiritual growth, deepening her relationship to the present moment. It brings her complete joy to facilitate experiences for others as she intuitively uses a variety of overtone emitting instruments to help empower participants settle into stillness and relaxation.
Monica starts with a guided meditation paired with instruments in which she gives tools to use to navigate the busy mind during the session, helping to achieve slower brainwaves to allow the body to enter relaxation so it can restore itself in its natural rhythm which is hindered by mental and physical stress. She utilizes visualization to encourage the use of the creative imagination, adding some breath work to help release stored tension and use vocalization to bring the vibration into the body which stimulates the vagus nerve. She then allows the participants drift off to deeply listen to the sound with all of their senses.
CLASS LENGTH: 2 hours

Since then she has followed the call of the sound by experimenting intuitively with instruments, and receiving training from Lana Ryder, Alexandre Tannous, and David Shamesh.

Calling all beginner artists and seasoned painters: Channel your creative fire with a little help from your friends and a sparked-up pre-roll!
We encourage you to bring an open mind, as Heather Hostetter guides us through the creative process of transferring ideas from your imagination to a canvas you can take home and proudly display.
Many artists use cannabis to conjure creativity and ground them in the moment with their medium. We encourage cannabis use to calm the nerves and get the brush flowing across the canvas.
Our goal is to create more than a canvas, we want to build a sense of community where we have fun and break the stigma surrounding cannabis, on painting at a time!

Medicate & Meditate: Sound Meditation with Monica Mullen
2023-03-19 18:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York)
Medicate & Meditate: Sound Meditation With Monica Mullen
Why Medicate & Meditate? For a lot of people, meditation is difficult. Perhaps they’re too stressed out to settle into their practice. Maybe they struggle with chronic pain. Or maybe their anxiety makes the thought of sitting down and observing their thoughts feel completely overwhelming. Whatever the case, meditation just doesn’t come easily for a lot of would-be meditators.
But, for some, cannabis can make it easier to settle into a meditation practice. Meditation has some serious stress-busting benefits—and cannabis has some serious potential to help you deepen your meditation practice. And now that you know how to use the two together, all that’s left to do is take a hit, relax, and get meditating.

Start with a guided meditation paired with instruments to navigate the busy mind and allow the body to enter relaxation so it can restore itself in its natural rhythm.

Sound therapy has been an integral part of Monica’s spiritual growth, deepening her relationship to the present moment.
