Times: 6-9pm
Location: Brentwood Community Center in Brentwood, MO

Registration: Call 314.704.8456
Integrity means being and living in alignment with your core, which is the foundation for joy, flow, connection, and expansion.
In this playshop, we will cultivate inner integrity in a few ways, including a pranic meditation which contributes to your integrity on the energetic level of the chakra system, and impeccable agreements are easy learning skills which help create ease, clarity, honesty, and maximum flow in relationships with others. We will also play with identifying deeply with your inner 'yes' and inner 'no,' the importance of this connection, and creating a life in alignment with your deepest being.
Wear comfortable clothing, bring something to take notes with, and bring yourself with an openness to learn in the easiest, friendliest way, and to laugh and play.

Workshop: Integrity Inside Ourselves and With Others
Times: 9am-1pm
Location: St. Louis Ethical Society www.ethicalstl.org
Fee Request: $50; or $40 if prepaid by May 12, 2011
Registration: Contact Kathy Kammien at kkammien@ethicalstl.org or Call 314.991.0955.
Integrity means being and living in alignment with essence, which is the foundation for joy, flow, connection, and expansion. This workshop will provide an introduction to each Pillar of Integrity, including conceptual information and experiential exercises. The Four Pillars of Integrity, as organized by Gay & Kathlyn Hendricks are: Emotional Literacy; Authentic Speaking & Resonant Listening; 100% Responsibility; and Impeccable Agreements.
Participants are invited to participate in the experiential activities and share their discoveries. Experiential exercises will be offered solo, in small groups, and with the whole group. This approach is based on the idea that our bodies and our minds are always working in harmony with each other, and that we can (learn to) tune into what is arising through our body sensations, feelings, and thoughts to presence what is happening, love ourselves and learn with ease so that we feel in flow with ourselves, with life, and in relationships.
This approach has similarities to the Nonviolent Communication process, The Work of Byron Katie, and the Big Mind Process. No previous experience is required to attend. Wear comfortable clothing, bring something to take notes with, and bring yourself with an openness to learn in the easiest, friendliest way, and to laugh and play.

Healing Meditation Practice for Japan
Maha Mrityanjaya Mantra
Friday, March 18th at 7:30pm for approximately one hour.
Location: Big Bend Yoga Center, 88 N. Gore, at Kirkham, Webster Groves, MO (www.bigbendyoga.com)
We will create a healing circle, to chant the Maha Mrityanjaya mantra out loud 108 times, followed by 30 minutes of silent meditation, generating and sending healing energy and love to Japan and all her inhabitants.
The image on this event is that of a fire, because when we chant this mantra we become that healing fire and healing light unto ourselves for the benefit of all. We can direct this light and healing energy wherever we choose, in the case of this practice - to Japan.
Please arrive at 7:15pm so that we can begin promptly at 7:30pm.
This will be a group led practice.
If you'd like to create a similar practice at your own location or studio at the same time, please do so, and post here on this page to let us know, so that we may share and expand the healing energy we are generating together.
If you are not familiar with this mantra, and would like to attend, please do come. You may simply participate with your heart and intention during the outloud chanting part of the event, and silently pray or meditate in own way during the silent practice.
With love,
Mar 11, 2011
