Energize Your Day

For those who sit at a computer for hours at a time and for those who are on their feet all day, several de-stressing, healing and re-energizing applications are taught. This program incorporates movements from martial arts, Yoga, Qigong and Polarity Therapy as well as self-massage, acupressure and eye care. This seminar, taught by Nancy Gardner, LMT and certified Tai Chi instructor, includes handouts of the exercises covered.

Meditation

Tuesday, November 21, 6 pm

Stimulate your parasympathetic nervous system through sitting meditation
(zazen), walking meditation (kinhin), and stress reduction meditation (visualization).
The parasympathetic nervous system controls the “rest and digest” response in the
body which is a system that slows the heart and breathing rate, and causes blood
vessels to dilate thus improving blood flow. For those planning to attend this session,
wearing loose or stretchy clothing is recommended. Presented by Simone Richardson, MLIS, MA; Librarian, Business & Government Division.
