SELF-CARE IN TIMES OF CRISIS

TURN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS INTO "ELATIONSHIPS"

TURN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS INTO "ELATIONSHIPS"

Beth Eldridge, PhD. 

CREATING WELLNESS TOGETHER CO-FOUNDER 


What does self care really look like in times of crisis? If you were affected by the Marshall Fire, or some other crisis recently, your old blueprints for self care probably went out the window pretty quickly. How do you manage self care when your whole world really has been turned upside down? This is no time to beat yourself up over old visions of self care. It’s time to find new ways to navigate life and all the unknowns around you. Your self care is no longer a one person job. We can build a team, engage in community. Let’s be present as we are, and find ways to cultivate wise compassion, caring for ourselves and each other.

We will practice gentle yoga asana as well as pranayama (breathing practice) with mindfulness to help us reconnect body and mind in the present moment.  


This class welcomes beginners or people seeking an encouraging, accessible class; let Lisa know if you have any physical limitations.

 

Throughout her years of yoga practice, training, and teaching, Lisa has experienced the beneficial effects of joining mind and body in the present moment. She aspires to guide students toward creating these experiences for themselves through explorations of yoga poses (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), and meditation (dhyana). She believes that the well-being of individuals and collectives is nourished by the mental, physical, and emotional development of both strength and flexibility. Lisa completed her 200-hour yoga teaching certification in 2016 with Asana Studio’s Connect Yoga Teacher Training in Arvada, Colorado. She has spent over two decades studying and practicing meditation and mindfulness in the tradition of Vietnamese Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh.

PERSONAL STORIES FOR PROFESSIONAL SETTINGS

PERSONAL STORIES FOR PROFESSIONAL SETTINGS

PERSONAL STORIES FOR PROFESSIONAL SETTINGS

    Keith MJ Bailey  

       StoryConnecting For Networking:  Stand out from the crowd by incorporating personal stories in professional settings 

“What do you do?” is the most   common question when getting to know someone.  BORING! And not very effective   for building quick rapport and making lasting connections.  Why?    If you say you are a project manager, how does that differentiate you from   the 1000s of other project managers out there?  Learn how to put the   person before the profession to grow your professional   network.   

In our StoryConnecting workshop we teach how to win at networking by leading with stories and to be the last person to ask the typical first question        - what do you do?

  • Using our With 1 Word ® First | Best | Last | Worst exercise you will experience;        how easy it is to find stories for any situation.
  • You will have opportunities to share these stories in small group breakouts to get practice and confidence using this approach.  
  • Since networking is a two way engagement you’ll then learn listening, alignment and inquiring strategies to get the best stories out of the        people with whom you are networking.  
  • As stories beget more stories the AI team feedback and coaching elevates the        kinesthetic learning of your team members.


Keith has had a passion for public speaking   since experiencing a seminal moment in the 4th grade. From the hospitality industry to global corporate sales he learned the power of storytelling for profit, influence and fun.

With 16 years as a  personal and corporate coach, Keith is motivated by the success of others in his quest to help you live a life well spoken. Knowing that good speakers are   created, not born, Keith started Articulated Intelligence to help prevent   unintentional audience abuse through a proprietary gamified storytelling   technique called With 1 Wordtm.

THE ART OF FEMININE PRESENCE

THE ART OF FEMININE PRESENCE

   Marla Press  

Do you want to ignite fiery passion and attract all that you desire? Do you know what it feels like to be fully in your body and power center? Would you like to improve your relationships with everyone, yeah everyone?! Could you benefit from experiencing more energy and joy no matter how much you have now? 

The Art of Feminine Presence® consists of over forty-five practices that range from increasing your awareness and potential to shifting your psychology.  We'll do a few of the powerful ones today and include a brief unique meditation. 

It is perfect for you if you: 

• Have the brakes on instead of playing bigger 

• No longer want to be triggered by other people’s energy 

• Want to be open to abundance AND be able to receive it 

• Are tired of being stressed, overwhelmed, or exhausted 

• Want to quickly become calm, focused, and purposeful 

• Want to be seen, be heard, and inspire change 

It is challenging to convey the essence of this work in words because the work is experiential. You are guaranteed to get something you can immediately benefit from.

THE MAGIC OF ART, HEALING, AND CREATIVITY

THE STORIES WE TELL AND THE BARRIERS THEY CREATE

THE MAGIC OF ART, HEALING, AND CREATIVITY

Peg Hilliard, BFA, BAE, MAE 

Feeling stressed? Art can provide a vehicle for gently exploring our inner world! It is the language of the soul. It comes directly out of our creative core. 


In this session we will learn a technique to calm the nervous system and find our “Artist Zone” quickly and easily. This happens to be the very same state of mind that facilitates healing and a feeling of wellness internally.

I will be guiding everyone through the warm-up process, step by step. We will be aligning body, mind, and spirit through Blind Contour Drawing after we move through the calming energy exercises together.

Come and learn about this elegant series of activities that will tap into your deepest creative core. Art offers you the stillness and peacefulness of simply enjoying “being here now”. With this state of consciousness, and frame of mind, healing and a feeling of wellness occurs organically and naturally.


 Peg Hilliard is an artist and educator. She received her BFA, BAE and Master’s degree in Arts and Education. She has been teaching art for 30+ years to thousands of people of all ages. During a severe health crisis, she realized that the same techniques she had been employing as an artist, (relaxation and meditative states) were the same approaches that were healing her during her recovery. Art can be a restorative, healing, and meditative practice that brings back balance and health for those seeking to support their inner resilience and sense of joy

THE STORIES WE TELL AND THE BARRIERS THEY CREATE

THE STORIES WE TELL AND THE BARRIERS THEY CREATE

THE STORIES WE TELL AND THE BARRIERS THEY CREATE

 Julian Crosson-Hill  

Human beings are storytellers. We’ve told stories through art and later writing since we took our first steps on planet earth. Have you ever really listened to the story you tell about yourself? Each of us has an inner narrative that constantly runs. That inner narrative is telling us a story about who we are and how the world works. To top it off, we often allow others to contribute to our own story.

In human design, we say that our story acts as a filter between us and the unlimited possibilities in the quantum field.Conditioning is anything that pulls us away from our core authentic being (letting other people contribute to our story). If we want to experience something different in our lives, we need to examine how our story is limiting the possibilities and rewrite it.

In this workshop, we’ll use journaling, storytelling and coaching to discover the parts of our story that aren’t true. Once we discover these parts that aren’t helping, we’ll learn several tools to begin rewriting them.  

This workshop is for anyone who feels that they just can’t make the breakthrough they want and don’t know why, the person who has their inner critic playing on repeat in their head, and the person who is still trying to live for other people and doesn’t know how to shift that. 

 

Julian Crosson-Hill is a certified spiritual life coach and human design specialist. He teaches and guides others to live a spiritually aligned life that answers their unique calling. Julian is the host of the Answer Your Unique Calling podcast, an instructor at Starseed Academy Coach Training, a RYT-200 yoga instructor, and tarot reader.

Julian works with people that are dissatisfied with the status quo and want to be become powerful catalysts for change by pursuing their soul's mission. In this work, Julian supports those just starting their journey and those running spirituality centered businesses.

As a lifelong follower of Goddess spirituality, Julian blends elements of ritual, storytelling, art, and movement into his work and mixes in a generous helping of human design
