SUMMARY:Community Yoga Class FREE
DESCRIPTION:COMMUNITY YOGA CLASS with Dr. Jen Kurz \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. \nThis is a free offering and anyone from the community is welcome\, whether or not you are a member of the Spiritual Center. \n

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:Intro to Ayurveda - IN PERSON
DESCRIPTION:Known as Yoga’s “sister science\,” Ayurveda is the world’s oldest system of health and healing. This time-tested\, nature-based wisdom empowers us with principles and practices to maximize our existing health and prevent the onset of future “dis-ease.” Ayurveda uses nature’s basic elements (space\, air\, fire\, water and earth) as a foundational framework to understand everything we see in the material world including the design of our unique body/mind constitution.\n\nBy observing ourselves through the lens of elemental qualities\, we learn how the seasons\, weather\, physical environments\, emotions\, food\, relationships\, and all life activities have an impact on our constitution – how they support balance or lead to imbalance within our own unique organism. This deeper self-awareness can lead us to better life choices and combined with Ayurvedic practices\, improve our overall physical\, emotional\, and spiritual wellbeing.\n\nJoin this workshop to learn…\n• Origins of Ayurveda & the practice of Ayurveda today in the US\n• Key concepts in Ayurveda and its unique view of health\n• Potential benefits of practicing Ayurveda\n• Your unique constitution through a take home assessment (Vata\, Pitta\, Kapha doshsa)\n\nTo register\, email rebecca@illuminate-discover.com indicating you intended date of attendance.

SUMMARY:Dub Yoga
DESCRIPTION:A vinyasa flow yoga class set to live roots and dub Reggae\n\nYes\, Yoga and Reggae fusion!\n\nFREE & open to the community \n\nw/ Dr. Jen Kurz and DJ Jah Rich\, live!!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCurious about the meaning of “Dub”?\n\n\n\nWhat is Dub music? Dub is one of the many sub genres of Reggae music. Dub is instrumental Reggae that is artistically enhanced and layered with effects like echo and reverb as well as production techniques like splicing in snipits of vocals or sporadically dropping out all the instruments except for the powerful\, stripped down drum and bass.\n\n\n\nDub gives the recording engineer the opportunity to become the musician as their multi-track mixing console acts as the instrument. An engineer making Dub is like a chef creating a unique meal not often seen on most menus!\n\n\n\nJamaican producer and engineer King Tubby is commonly known as the creator of Dub\, as he first experimented with ways to manipulate and “dub out” his instrumental tracks in the early 1970s. Today\, his innovation and influence is widely seen in genres like techno\, drum and bass\, and electronic music overall. Dub stands as another example of the rich contributions of Jamaican music.\n\n\nJah Rich 7/19/23

SUMMARY:Natick Music Makers
DESCRIPTION:What:  Natick Music Makers  \nWhen:  First Fridays\, 7-9pm \nWhere:  Common Street Spiritual Center\, Upstairs \nHow much: Cost; 100% of your $10 entry fee goes to the center to support its mission* \nWho:  You & Us!! ? \nHello! We want to play music with YOU! \nIf you have a basic musical ability (play an instrument\, know your chords)\, We welcome you to bring your instrument; guitar\, bass\, drums\, keyboard\, ukelele\, voice\, and more – for a night of playing songs together. We’ll finish out the night with a jam. \nPoint of the event is to have fun and make music together. There is little expectation beyond that. \nFormat of the event:  we’ll play relatively easy songs which are 3-5 chords. We’ll have a list to choose from for this event\, and we’ll cast them on a screen / or have on poster-boards\, so everyone can see the chords and lyrics. We’ll draw numbers from a hat @ 7pm and that will be the order of those wanting to lead a song. If you just want to play\, then just play! \nGenres include but not limited to Rock\, Pop\, Folk\, Blues. Typically\, we’ll be mostly in 4/4 time to keep things simple. I’ll start off the 1st song to get us warmed up\, then we’ll take turns leading a song (optional if you desire to). \nNote: we’ll play mostly “clean” in terms of sound\, but some basic pedals / effects are permitted such as Wah\, Compressor\, Reverb\, Delay\, etc. Ear plugs will be available. \nAlso Note:  respectfulness of everyone’s ability level is expected\, kindness is appreciated. This is for fun\, and there is no expectation that the songs will sound like the original nor do we really desire for it to. \nKeep your alcohol and drugs and pets at home. \nWe’ll take a break about halfway through to socialize and munch on snacks. \nIf you have any questions\, you can reach me by email: MrDaveStewart@gmail.com \nHope to see you there! \n\nNatick Music Makers \n\n  \n*Free if you’re a member of Common St. Spiritual Center.  See this link if interested: https://commonstreet.org/membership/
