Memoir & Mindfulness: Your Path To Freedom And Enlightenment (online)
Teacher: Wanda HennigCost: Donation to support the BRC during the COVID-19 lockdownDates: 06:00pm - 07:00pm
We all have stories to tell but many of us don’t know where to start. When we meet we will stop, listen, connect (with ourselves), write. The focus will be on two interconnected, transformative practices: mindfulness (presence, “listening”) and memoir / writing / story. My workshop was scheduled to run over these four days. Instead, we will do four one-hour Zoom sessions. Each will start with a centering (presence) practice - followed by guided writing practice. The interaction will be between you and the surprises that appear on your pages. The sessions are designed to flow into and complement one another.* For each session I request you bring your whole self, your curiosity and a lightness of being. Also a journal or notebook of choice and pen or pencil.
1. Being here. Bring (*the above) plus a willingness to jump in and engage with yourself. (June 8, 6pm - 7pm)
2. Relish and write. Bring (*the above) plus some culinary pleasures. We will practice mindful eating, drinking and writing. (June 9, 6pm - 7pm)
3. On giving good ear. Bring (*the above) - and your listening skills. (June 10, 6pm - 7pm)
4. My life under lockdown. Bring (*the above) as we play with the past and present in the now. (June 11, 6pm - 7pm).View teacher detailsWanda Hennig is an award-winning food and travel writer who has freelanced extensively for print and online publications both internationally and locally.

Metaphysical Causes Of Illnesses (online)
Teacher: Heike SymCost: Donation to support the BRC during the COVID-19 lockdownDates: 02:00pm - 03:30pm
“If we listen to our body when it whispers , we won’t have to hear it scream."This will be an introduction into deciphering the spiritual, emotional and emotional roots that manifest in illnesses. The body is always in reaction to how we perceive and process on those levels. When we understand the root cause we can shift it and the body can regain balance.
