Awakening Awareness of Energy through Meditation at Prairiewoods

We have the power to awaken to a new energy within ourselves, to connect with our personal biochemistry and cellular structure, and to even develop new brain circuitry. These experiential gatherings at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) invite women of all ages to engage practical, meditative practices to integrate the mind, body and spirit for healing and wholeness. These practices will be taught and repeated throughout the series so the practices become habits that, when lived out daily, may enhance mental and spiritual health and well-being. This is a four-part series that will meet on Aug. 4, 11, 18 and 25. This group, facilitated by Ann Jackson, PBVM, and Nancy Hoffman, FSPA, will meet in person with an online option available upon request. These conversations may lead to a future time to meet together in person. The cost is $100 for the four-week series. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700. 2022-06-22 12:00:00 -0500

Please invite friends and family to ensure the event happens as scheduled. We would love to meet your loved ones. EDUCATORJhe Russell is a holistic dance healer. He received his MFA from University of Iowa in choreography and dance. He is able to weave together and connect traditional ballet positions with the elementary teachings of the 5 elements. Every human being has a head, two arms and two legs which equals the five elements. In ballet there are five major positions which relate to the five elements. Jenni RoseFrom the age of five Jenni had the opportunity to dance with various dance studios and participated on the Solon High School dance team. She went on to study photography in Chicago, at Harrington School of Design and spent her twenties focused on learning about weaving, natural and synthetic dye processes, and shearing sheep. She interned at The Chicago Weaving School for 2 years, and through that process developed her own weaving curriculum that she then taught to the age of preschool to adult, in Chicago and Seattle. In 2018 she suffered an undiagnosed inflammatory episode that caused significant neuropathy and mobility loss. She has learned a lot through her personal healing journey and contributes most of that healing to the gift of a grateful mindset and a good mother.  LOCATIONWetherby Park, 2400 Taylor Dr, Iowa City, IA 52240, USA COVID-19The event is held outside.
