Join Bev, Ron and Sunflower for a beautiful alchemy of treasures that will invoke your innate feeling of love and bliss. Yoga Nidra is a practice of deep relaxation while lying in a deliciously supported savasana. No, it’s not a nap, it’s better. Bev and Ron will guide you through a meditation in a favorite restorative, then into the deep relaxation practice of Yoga Nidra accompanied by readings of Bev & Ron’s favorite poems. If that wasn’t delicious enough, Ron will play with his crystal bowls and Janice T. Sunflower will play her unbelievably beautiful Native American flutes to lure the concerns of the day away, and replace them with nothing but love. Join this beautiful trio for a very special exercise in doing nothing.

The position of your baby and the positions you use before and during labor can have a powerful impact during and after the delivery of your baby.
This workshop will present positions you can use in labor and in the months before the birth of your baby to help your baby find his or her way into a
position that may ease delivery. We will review yoga and child-birth preparation poses, partner exercises, the use of the birth ball, and relaxation techniques. Partners are encouraged but not required to attend. Please bring an exercise or birth ball if you have one.
Come experience new techniques and practice the ones you’ve already learned with your partner so that you may experience a more comfortable and joyful
pregnancy, delivery, and early days with baby.

ABOUT THEODORE KYRIAKOS
A beacon of light and laughter, Theodore Kyriakos, native of Greece, guides people the world over into the sacred flame of the heart with the passion and potent skill of a master. At the early age of 18, Theo discovered the eastern traditions; he immediately resonated with meditation as one of his main spiritual practices. He began to see the world with the eyes of a seeker and dove into such modalities as hands-onhealing, Tai Chi, psychotherapy, depth psychology, dream work, Sufi mysticism, body work and alchemy. He holds a MA and an advanced diploma in integrative transpersonal counseling and psychotherapy, a post graduate certificate in dreamwork, and years of personal and professional experience. He aims to help others explore their true potential, develop their inner resources, and access their creativity to live a life of eros, the ancient Greek word for passionate love infused with sensual longing and desire. True to his Greek roots, he believes in the power of eros reawakening on the planet at this time. Theo fuses east with west, light with dark, and the known with the unknown for each of us to illuminate the celebration of Spirit in all things.

Kathy Stewart presents THE WORK of Byron Katie
Saturday, March 101:00 - 3:30pm
$25 in adv./$30 at the door
Wherever we go, whatever we do, our thoughts incessantly whisper (and sometimes shout) that something or someone could be better. He doesn’t appreciate me. My thighs are too big. They should listen to me. That paint color is all wrong. Thoughts like these not only deprive us of peace and happiness, they are also at the heart of all suffering.
The Work of Byron Katie is a gentle yet powerful way to:
• Identify the thoughts that rob us of happiness
• Experience the freedom of undoing these thoughts
• Discover new perspectives on troubling situations
• See the beauty and perfection of life just as it is.
Everything you need to do The Work will be provided—just bring a pen and your most open, honest self.
