Silent Mindfulness Meditation Retreat at Prairiewoods
<p>“Life unfolds in moments. The healing power of mindfulness lies in living each one as fully as we can.” —Jon Kabat-Zinn, <em>Full Catastrophe Living. </em>Mindfulness is an open, kind, non-judging attention to what is happening in the present moment as it is happening. It shapes a wise and compassionate relationship with and response to experience as it unfolds moment by moment. As Joseph Goldstein writes in <em>A Heart Full of Peace,</em> “Mindfulness is the quality and power of mind that is deeply aware of what’s happening—without commentary and without interference … keeping us connected to brushing our teeth or having a cup of tea … connected to the people around us.” Scientific research shows that mindfulness can positively affect stress resilience, physical and mental health, the ability to sustain attention, self-regulation of emotions, interpersonal skills, and general well-being and happiness. Come to Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) for a weekend retreat with facilitator Chris Klug to cultivate mindfulness in silence amid instruction, questioning, sitting meditation, walking meditation, mindful movement and mindful eating. All are welcome to participate, whether we are interested in beginning a formal mindfulness meditation practice or have been practicing for some time. Facilitator Chris Klug has practiced mindfulness meditation for more than 30 years, including seven silent extended mindfulness meditation retreats. He is an instructor in the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program at Prairiewoods and at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics (UIHC), where he began teaching in 2001 following participation in training by Jon Kabat-Zinn. He is a grief counselor, educator and consultant in private practice in Iowa City, and a consultant to the palliative care staff at UIHC. Chris has more than 30 years of experience facilitating retreats and workshops on mindfulness, nonviolence, creative conflict resolution, and grief and loss. 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. A non-refundable deposit of $25 is required at registration. (Full payment is required to register online. If you prefer to pay the $25 registration fee now and the balance when you arrive, please call 319-395-6700.) If you want to stay in a Hermitage, you also will need to register by phone. If you have dietary restrictions that affect your health, please list them.</p>

The Clairvoyants Christmas
<p>America’s Got Talent finalists and World Champions of Mentalism, The Clairvoyants, are thrilled to announce their 2019 US Christmas Tour. The holiday-themed show will feature illusions performed by the duo that will be sure to get audiences in the Christmas spirit.</p><p>“We cannot wait to celebrate the most magical time of the year with our audience,” Thommy Ten and Amélie van Tass shared. “We will spend an unforgettable evening together. Get ready to experience the miracle of Christmas in your hearts and minds.”</p><p> </p><p>When Amélie van Tass and Thommy Ten met in October 2011, they began to develop their "second sight" act, and two months later brought it on stage for the first time. Within a year, they had developed a full length show. Shortly thereafter, they started touring Europe.</p><p>In 2014, they received their first long term contract in America. After a six month run in the show "The Illusionarium," they were offered a featured spot in the largest touring magic show in the world, “The Illusionists.”</p><p>In 2016, they decided to take part in the biggest talent show in the world, “America’s Got Talent.” After four months, six different performances and over 100,000 contestants, America voted them second place. In October 2016, they appeared, together with winner Grace Vanderwaal, at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas. More recently, in early 2019, they were personally invited to compete in the AGT spinoff, America’s Got Talent: The Champions, wowing the judges with every performance. Being part of not one, but two highly successful TV shows has been another major step in the evolution of their career.</p><p>A highlight of their career was the opportunity to perform their show at the Sydney Opera House. In winter 2016, they experienced another career highlight, headlining the show “The Illusionists - Turn of the Century” in the Palace Theatre in New York City, on Broadway. The show was the best selling magic show in Broadway history.</p><p>Van Tass and Ten were awarded “The German Champions of Mentalism,” “Magicians of the Year 2015,” and, also in 2015, were enthusiastically chosen as the “World Champions of Mentalism,” a prize that hasn't been awarded in 30 years.</p><p>In April 2017, the Academy of Magical Arts and The Magic Castle Hollywood awarded Thommy Ten & Amélie van Tass "Stage Magicians of the Year 2016" for their extraordinary art.</p><p>Thommy Ten and Amélie van Tass continue to appear with their full length show in America and Europe and perform for corporate events worldwide. In beginning of 2019, they appeared twice on NBC's new show America's Got Talent: The Champions.</p>

Thursday Forum - The Golden Age of Neuroscience: Understanding Addiction, Stress, and Brain Disorders
<p>Researchers have learned more about the brain in the last decade than in centuries of study, ushering in a golden age of neuroscience. Yet, a better understanding of the brain is still desperately needed in order to develop effective treatments for neurological disorders, one of the greatest threats to public health. How do we go about understanding the nervous system—the most complex organ system in the human body—and a range of neural processes like addiction, stress, and brain disorders? This forum, led by faculty from Coe’s biology and psychology departments, will provide an introduction to neuroscience and exciting developments in this dynamic field. Following week one’s introduction to the field and its history, week two’s session led by Professor of Psychology Michael Baker will explore addiction and the psychological and neurobiological mechanisms that play a role in the compulsive behaviors associated with it. In the third session, Associate Professor of Biology David Lo will explain the biological process of stress, the myriad ways stress impacts our health, and techniques for managing stress. The final session, led by Associate Professor of Biology Paul Storer, will explain the mechanisms that lead to brain disorders like Alzheimer’s disease and Multiple Sclerosis and explore the modern treatments that may ameliorate such brain disorders.</p> 2019-10-01 11:30:00 -05002/06/208:45 a.m.Coe College, Hickok Hall, Kesler Lecture HallCedar Rapids -

Food and the Making of a People: A Biblical Perspective

Sustaining a Food System for a Growing World
<p>Whether interested in food for health, world hunger relief, or just to enjoy your favorite meal, we cannot escape the fact that our current food systems are unsustainable. As global population grows in the shadow of climate change, what we eat makes a big difference. Our food choices impact water security, carbon emissions, and global and local food security. In this talk, we will explore how we got to our current system and how a sustainable food system might look. How can we feed the world, reduce our carbon impact, and adapt to our changing climate?</p>
