Connecting with Your Body To Make Peace with Food - 02/17/2012

A One Big Roof Workshop, 3rd Friday each month

A new program at One Big Roof, offered on the third Friday of every month, (3/16/2012, 4/20/2012, 5/18/2012, 6/15/2012) will help individuals strengthen the connection to the art of nourishment through various gentle means including meditation, movement, relaxation, and teachings. For anyone whose eating behaviors or thoughts are interfering with their daily living or their health. Each session will begin with a brief meditation, followed by a teaching, a body-centering experience, and a closure. This is neither a support nor therapy group, but hopes to help close the gap between different existing services and to provide a safe space for those who are often dealing with these issues alone. Hosted by Pierre Zimmerman, Buddhist Chaplain and Health Facilitator; Ann Saffi-Biasetti, Certified Social Worker and Yoga Therapist; and Elyn Zimmerman, Nutritionist. From 7:30 to 9 PM. Free - donations gladly accepted. RSVP in advance if possible.
