SUMMARY:TAFT GARDENS - Dreaming in the Garden
DESCRIPTION:“Dreaming in the Garden”\n\nA Nature-Based Experiential Immersion\nWednesdays in September (7\, 14\, 21\, 28)\n8:30am – 12:00pm\nTaft Gardens\, Ojai\, Ca\n\nWe have forgotten the river of dreams. The ancient ones knew that the dream stream was the elixir of the “other” world. For the aboriginal peoples of Australia\, the “dream-time” is more “real than” the middle-world space we inhabit. In the Judeo-Christian text (aka The Bible)\, there are numerous examples of dreams and visions. Most dreams were interpreted as communications from God. The river of dreams flows down the sides of the mountain and into the garden of the Psyche where we find ourselves confronted with mysterious images\, emotions\, and predicaments\, just the right kind of trouble.\nWe might make a case that dreams are initiatory opportunities from the Self\, God or Mystery. The dream-maker of the psyche offers nightly gifts as an opportunity to expand our consciousness into the consciousness of the imaginal and the underworld.\nDuring this month-long journey\, we will enter the garden of dreaming for 4 separate sessions. We will move from attempting to interpret dreams into allowing the dreams and their strange characters to alter our consciousness; in fact\, that’s the whole purpose of dreams\, to initiate us into a wisdom beyond the ego. We will encounter characters of our wildness\, our wholeness\, our outcasts\, our protector parts\, deep mystery\, and if we are lucky\, some nightmarish shadowy figures.\nIn addition to entering the night-world of dreams we will\, not surprisingly\, enter into the dream of the Earth and wander with dreams in nature and semi-wilderness.\nWe will employ soul-centric dreamwork\, embodiment practices\, heart-centered council\, expressive arts\, deep imagery\, and wild wanders as we explore the wild dream stream.\nJoin us and deepen into your dreams and your unfolding wild story!\nSleeping in the Garden by Mary Oliver\nI thought the earth remembered me\,\nshe took me back so tenderly\,\narranging her dark skirts\, her pockets\nfull of lichens and seeds.\nI slept as never before\, a stone on the river bed\,\nnothing between me and the white fire of the stars\nbut my thoughts\, and they floated light as moths\namong the branches of the perfect trees.\nAll night I heard the small kingdoms\nbreathing around me\, the insects\,\nand the birds who do their work in the darkness.\nAll night I rose and fell\, as if in water\,\ngrappling with a luminous doom. By morning\nI had vanished at least a dozen times\ninto something better.\n\n\nLocation: Taft Ecological Gardens\, de la Garigue Rd\, Ojai\, Ca\n20 minute drive from Von’s in Ojai\n\nCost: 380.00\n\nGroup Size: 8\n\nGuide: Brian Stafford\, MD\, MPH\nBrian is an eco-therapist\, depth psychiatrist\, vision fast guide\, retreat facilitator\, and Guide\, Trainer\, and Co-Founder and Director of the Wind Mind Training Program\, an eco-depth wholistic psychotherapy program at the Animas Valley Institute. A former Chair of Psychiatry\, he is also a poet\, essayist and storyteller who is completing his first book\, “Pathways to Ecological Awakening.”

SUMMARY:ALIGNMENT HEALINGS - Alignment Yoga and Qigong (Sarzotti Park)
DESCRIPTION:Alignment Yoga and Qigong\n\n\n\nLepeng has been teaching group Yoga and Pilates classes at gyms and yoga studios for the past 10 years. She has witnessed many people\, especially older people struggle in typical Yoga classes as well as other strenuous workout classes in the gym. Unless you have been consistently practice Yoga and workout regularly\, the typical yoga and pilates classes are not natural or even suitable for our bodies and it can also hurt us and cause unnecessary injuries. \nEven though she grew up in China\, Lepeng was not interested in practicing Qigong and Tai Qi until she is in her forties. She started to experience and understand the benefit of Qigong movement as she gets older and becomes more in tune with the subtle flow of  energy patterns in her body. According to ancient integral medical theory\, disease is the manifestation of energy disorder and aberration within the body. It is a state in which the various organs and the nervous system are functioning incorrectly or inadequately in a manner which is either too slow or fast\, too weak or strong. When the energy flows through the channels unimpeded and various organs are in a state of equilibrium\, one is healthy. If the energy becomes imbalanced or blocked\, disease manifests. Disease indicates that the energy flow needs to be corrected. Through the calmness and relaxation generated by Qigong movement\, the vitality which has been blocked within a tense and imbalanced body is released and allowed to restore and sustain natural health. \nLepeng designed this movement class to help people to enjoy movement in a way that feels good\, flows the energy and trains the mind.  And you don’t have to go fast\, be competitive and worry about injures. The class starts with gentle flow of Qigong to warm up the body and open up all the energy channels in the body\, then we use 6-feet wooden sticks to help us stretch in ways that we normally would not be able to without it. The last 30-minutes of  the class\, Lepeng lead people through some gentle yoga poses to strengthen and further stretch the entire body so you feel so relaxed and peaceful after the final relaxation pose on the ground. She truly believes this is a movement class almost everyone can benefit and enjoy. \n\n\n\nMonday 9:30am to 11am at Sarzotti park\nWednesday 9:30am to 11am at Sarzotti park\n\nFriday 9:30am to 11am at Sarzotti park\n\nPlease contact Lepeng at 818-853-3033 or email alignmenthealings@gmail.com for detailed information
