Saturday Soul-Stretch for Lovers of Embodied Spirituality at Prairiewoods
<p>Wake up! Wake up! The weekend is here. Saturday Soul Stretch will get us out of bed and back into our full-spectrum humanity. Join facilitator Laura Weber at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) to de-stress, reconnect and sink deeply into the present moment. A hot breakfast starts the day, followed by gentle tai chi movement and a sitting meditation to foster deep relaxation. To relax and engage, sip a cup of aromatic tea and enter into a whole new realm of exploration with a different spiritual modality each month, such as dream work, journaling, mandalas, labyrinth, breath-exercise, sounding, centering prayer, poetry for the soul, singing bowl meditation or drumming. To cap off the morning’s spiritual workout, enjoy a mindfulness walk out in the beauty of Prairiewoods’ 70 acres of prairie grasses, trees, streams and gardens, with only the owls, squirrels, turkeys and deer as your companion-guides. Finally, return to the Spirituality Center for a scrumptious luncheon, and leave happy and refreshed. The cost is $50 and includes breakfast and lunch. (You may choose to pay an additional $25 to stay through the afternoon with dinner, or $55 to stay overnight with Sunday breakfast.) For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2018-01-09 13:00:00 -0600

Taiji, Tea & Qi Retreat at Prairiewoods
<p>The AARP Global Council on Brain Health has identified what it calls the Five Pillars of Brain Health: movement, relaxation, discovery, connection and nutrition. This retreat with facilitator Gerry Hopkins at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) aims to provide all five (with a little help from the Prairiewoods kitchen staff). <em>Taiji</em> (Tai Chi) is a Chinese martial art that is used by most practitioners as a movement modality operating somewhere between yoga and dance. As such, it’s not only a fun way to move, but it also encourages relaxation while challenging us mentally. Tea, another gift from China, is the second most widely consumed drink in the world. We will break during the workshop to learn about and sample some of the most popular types of tea. While both refreshing and stimulating, tea can also provide nutritional and health benefits. <em>Qi</em> is the Chinese word for breath or life energy. Over centuries Chinese practitioners have developed various exercises designed to enhance and encourage the flow of this energy within ourselves. We will learn some of these exercises and examine how they may help us relax, heal and grow. Join us as we explore these cultural gifts from China; as we move in new directions; as we relax mentally, physically and emotionally; as we discover new ways to approach somatic engagement; as we connect with others; and as we share the delicious and nutritious meals from the Prairiewoods kitchen. The cost of this weekend retreat is $230 and includes sessions, lodging and all meals. The commuter fee is $180 and includes sessions, Saturday lunch and dinner, and Sunday lunch. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p>

Walking in Mindfulness Silent Meditative Walk
<p>Begin your weekend in communal solitude during a silent meditative walk with Andrew from Walking Space. Being in the silent presence of another person can shift your relationship to a more conscious and present moment, especially when drawing upon the serenity of nature. Participants will have the option to quietly greet others at arrival and after a brief introduction Andrew will lead a silent meditative walk. While the walk itself is silent, participants are welcome to stay after to socialize. Because of the nature of this walk, music in earbuds, cell phones, and dogs are not allowed. Children are welcome so long as they abide by the concept of walking in silence. Pre-registration required. M $4; NM $6; children under 12 are free.</p> 2020-01-11 15:00:00 -06004/04/202:00 p.m.Indian Creek Nature CenterCedar Rapids -

Tallgrass Conversations Book Reading & Discussion at Prairiewoods
<p>Prairiewoods played a significant role in the inspiration for <em>Tallgrass Conversations: In Search of the Prairie Spirit, </em>a book of short writings and photographs, and much of its content—in both word and image—reflects co-author Thomas Dean’s Prairiewoods experience. Poetic, beautiful, meditative and informative, <em>Tallgrass Conversations</em> (co-authored with Cindy Crosby) encourages experiencing the prairie through the heart, mind and spirit, as well as sight, sound and other senses. With a special focus on Prairiewoods, Tom will discuss how the book came together, including how the idea of “conversations” with the living world informs the writing and photos. In this afternoon at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha), he will read selections from the book and share photos that accompany the short writings. After the reading, all are welcome to sow seeds in the prairie. A free-will offering will be accepted, and registration is requested by the previous day.
