SUMMARY:A Course in Miracles
DESCRIPTION:A Course in Miracles: each week we begin our exploration by reading the short introduction which includes these words “the course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim however at removing the blocks to the awareness of Love’s presence which is your natural inheritance.” \nHas any other subject been written or sung about more often than love? Isn’t it the organizing principle of all religions? So popular and prominent in our daily discourse\, yet so elusive. And don’t we yearn for an alternative to fear\, guilt and hatred\, suspicion and divisiveness?\n\nWhether a beginner\, a student of many years\, or an on-again/off again inquirer\, you are invited to join us in seeking to learn how to love and enjoy being in love. It’s not a solo performance.  Only together\, is love manifest.\n\nhttps://commonstreet.zoom.us/j/91709436048?pwd=eXpvM2dpYlhPNE1aNGE5cEFtOER4Zz09 \nMeeting ID: 917 0943 6048\nPasscode: 695321\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,91709436048#\,\,\,\,*695321# US (Washington DC)\n+13126266799\,\,91709436048#\,\,\,\,*695321# US (Chicago)

SUMMARY:Men's Wisdom Council
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to be a “Man”? \nMost men find that there is no clear answer to that question. It’s never been easy being a man. We take on the roles that society assigns us\, without being given clear instructions. Role models that are offered up to us don’t speak to our deeper concerns\, or rarely reply from the depths that our spirits require. \nCouncils have long been used by many traditions and cultures as a way to come together and gain a greater understanding of the world. The Men’s Wisdom Council continues this sacred tradition of sharing and deep listening. \nOur circle we will strive to create a safe\, supportive\, and non-judgmental space where we can take turns telling our stories\, sharing our concerns\, and learning from each other—as we explore how we\, as men\, walk through the stages of our lives.\nPlease contact Michael Corthell (michaelacorthell@gmail.com) for any questions that you may have. \nMeets upstairs in meditation room. Enter through school street door.

SUMMARY:Show & Share
DESCRIPTION:Held in a community circle format\, this event is free of charge (donations accepted) and will provide space for folks to gather face-to-face. It will be a place where people can connect in a vibe of safety\, spiritual communion\, openness\, honesty\, and non-judgement to share whatever they wish. My hope is for this to be something of a compassionate and open-hearted ‘show and tell’ for adults\, a place where the inner child can have space to play freely\, experience emotional release\, and heal through the joy of supportive human connection! \nIf you want to share feelings: fears\, joys\, and get into deep places that are often difficult in surface-level conversations\, you are welcome. If you choose to share stories\, poems\, songs\, life experiences\, you are welcome. Want to share creative emotional expression\, dance\, photo albums\, or something else that is important to you? YOU ARE WELCOME!\n—————\n-At the open and close of each meeting I will facilitate a short sound healing and guided meditation. Also\, if a few people bring instruments\, we could do a peaceful jam session at the end of the event… I’m always up for those!\n-While I don’t wish to make any topics explicitly off limits\, we will practice compassionate and respectful communication. There will be a ‘talking stick’ of some sort\, so the only ground rules will be: don’t interrupt while someone is sharing\, don’t respond directly to a share without asking permission first\, and please do not use derogatory/demeaning language or point aggressive communication/anger at anyone.\n-There is no commitment required. Come to one circle or come on a regular basis. This is not a closed or ‘regular members only’ event. \n-I will bring a limited amount of snacks. Anyone who wants to bring food and/or non-alcoholic beverages to share\, you welcome to do so.\n-This group will meet in the Meditation Room on the 3rd floor.\n—————\nI hope to build a supportive and connected community around this gathering\, which will be held on a bi-weekly basis (regular recurring time open to group discussion and potentially subject to change). If you have any questions\, please reach out to Jason at MetalionMusicOfficial@gmail.com or (508)254-0263. \n*Please note that the end time of the gathering will be organic and will flow with being in the moment on that day. 5:00pm is a loose target. Anyone who wants to come but needs to come after 3:00pm or leave before 5:00pm can feel free to do so knowing that it will be received with acceptance and grace.* \nPeace & Respect\,\nJason Karol

SUMMARY:Ecstatic Flow and Soundbath: exploring the rhythm of life
DESCRIPTION:We are so excited to announce the next Ecstatic Flow: exploring the rhythm of life on May 21st from 6:30-8pm at the Common Street Spiritual Center (13 Common St\, Natick).\n\nThis authentic movement exploration will take place in the sanctuary. The high ceilings\, stained glass\, woods floors and gorgeous sound will give us the foundation to move freely and connect into our primal movements.\n\nWe guide you into some yogic movements infused with fluid elements and encourage you to engage with the senses while deeply listening to your body.\n\nOver time the fluidity of movement turns into your own intuitive expression which some might call dance. As you tap into this harmony between your body and mind you become totally absorbed by the moment beyond the point of distraction and free yourself beyond the confines of your mind.The class ends with a blissful sound bath to soften the body\, relax the nervous system and glimpse into the oneness of consciousness.\n\nPlease bring your yoga mat and blankets\, pillows or anything to make yourself comfortable for the ending Soundbath meditation. Sliding scale offered. Investment for the 90 minute class is on a sliding scale of $20-40 (with options for a need based barter).

SUMMARY:Community Yoga Class FREE
DESCRIPTION:YOGA COMMUNITY CLASS with Dr. Jen Kurz \nThis is a free offering but donations to Common Street are welcome. \nPlease register by email to doctorjenkurz@gmail.com \nYOGA: (yoga citta vrtti nirodah): Translates\, from Sanskrit\, as “the cessation of the fluctuations of mind.” Patanjali\, a great yogi sage\, defines it in his “Yoga Sutras” as the ability to direct the mind exclusively toward an object and sustain that direction\, without distractions. \nFor many westerners and Americans\, yoga practice involves particular asanas\, or mat exercises and stretches\, which build strength\, flexibility\, and balance. It may also be a way to find stillness in the mind in the effort to reach a state of focused attention and self-awareness — through guided sound\, breath\, and posture. This class will be geared towards those who are looking for a moderate to fast paced flow\, as well as a deeper understanding of the mind body connection. \nDr. Jen Kurz is a pain management physiatrist (www.doctorkurz.com for further information). \nDr. Kurz witnesses the limits of conventional care in the treatment of conditions as complex and difficult as chronic pain\, addiction\, and related mood disorders. If we lose our ability to move due to chronic pain\, we know the central and peripheral nervous systems are involved. Neurons that fire together\, wire together. Can we redirect our minds and rewire neurons towards health and wellbeing? \nYoga is a powerful healing and preventative practice for chronic\, painful physical conditions – including chronic spine and joint pain\, muscle pain\, weakness\, tightness\, and postural imbalances. Yoga may enable you to awaken to root mental causes\, conditions\, and obstacles that may be overcome with practice. Previous experience with yoga is recommended for this class.

SUMMARY:A Course in Miracles
DESCRIPTION:A Course in Miracles: each week we begin our exploration by reading the short introduction which includes these words “the course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim however at removing the blocks to the awareness of Love’s presence which is your natural inheritance.” \nHas any other subject been written or sung about more often than love? Isn’t it the organizing principle of all religions? So popular and prominent in our daily discourse\, yet so elusive. And don’t we yearn for an alternative to fear\, guilt and hatred\, suspicion and divisiveness?\n\nWhether a beginner\, a student of many years\, or an on-again/off again inquirer\, you are invited to join us in seeking to learn how to love and enjoy being in love. It’s not a solo performance.  Only together\, is love manifest.\n\nhttps://commonstreet.zoom.us/j/91709436048?pwd=eXpvM2dpYlhPNE1aNGE5cEFtOER4Zz09 \nMeeting ID: 917 0943 6048\nPasscode: 695321\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,91709436048#\,\,\,\,*695321# US (Washington DC)\n+13126266799\,\,91709436048#\,\,\,\,*695321# US (Chicago)
