**Join us for a unique experience of combining the healing energy of Reiki with the artistic expression of handbuilding clay. This workshop will delve into the ancient practice of Reiki, promoting holistic health and wellness through energy healing. Participants will learn the basics of handbuilding clay while immersing themselves in a spiritual and creative environment. This event is perfect for those interested in exploring the connections between art, spirituality, and energy healing. Come and indulge in an afternoon of self-care, mindfulness, and craft as we mold clay with intention and positive energy. Whether you are a seasoned Reiki practitioner or new to both Reiki and Crafts, this workshop welcomes all who seek a harmonious blend of creativity and healing.** **We Will be meeting at 101 Haven Wellness Center in Rockville.** **101 N Adams St Rockville, MD** **Bring an apron if you have one.

Join our weekly walking meetup to have fun, maintain a healthy lifestyle, meet new people, and enjoy the weather! We meet Saturdays at 10am, halfway between the Reston *Container Store* and *Not Your Average Joes* (by the metal benches), leaving no later than 10:05. Every week, rain or shine, we start by walking along the Green Trail to reach Lake Anne Community Center. Once there, we pause for water/bio (often staying a few minutes extra from April-November, due to the local Farmer's Market), and then we circle Lake Anne and head back to our starting point. It's roughly 3-4 miles and takes about an hour and a half. Afterwards, some members will often head to *Not Your Average Joes* or another local restaurant for a quick drink/meal before tackling the day. This event is open to all ages and fitness levels. Dogs are welcome, and we recommend dressing for the weather (umbrella, water, snow shoes, hat, etc.) since we'll walk rain or shine. Also, feel free to bring a friend! By signing up, you accept and assume all risks and responsibilities with this activity, and nobody will be held liable.

## About the Event **Instructor: Dr Naresh Chand** **Cost**: Free for Vedic Health members; $25 for non members [*[Membership from $19/month](https://www.vedichealth.org/memberships)]* Experience a deeply restorative session that combines **chakra cleansing meditation** with **gentle stretching yoga** to help you reset your body, calm your mind, and rebalance your energy. We will begin with grounding breathwork to help you settle into the present moment. From there, you'll be guided through a **chakra cleansing meditation**, focusing on the body's seven main energy centers to release blockages and invite a smoother flow of energy throughout the body. Following meditation, we will move into **slow, gentle yoga stretches** designed to ease tension, improve mobility, and support the energetic balance of each chakra. The movements are simple, mindful, and accessible to beginners as well as experienced practitioners who want a calming and nurturing practice. This session is ideal if you are looking to: * Reduce stress and mental fatigue * Reconnect with your body and breath * Balance your energy centers (chakras) * Release physical tension through gentle movement * Cultivate a sense of inner calm and clarity No prior meditation or yoga experience is required. All are welcome. Come as you are, breathe deeply, stretch gently, and leave feeling lighter, centered, and renewed.

We had a great conversation the last time we went here. For everyone attending this was a new find, a cafe tucked away on the upper level, not immediately noticeable by the average visitor to this shopping center. I’ll probably have a matcha, but get whatever you like, and start the weekend off right. (No discussions on politics, religion or potentially controversial topics. We're here to relax and have fun. Just be respectful and we'll be alright. Pay your own way, and enjoy!)

Hands-on learn how to save life & limb, when mired in the wilderness of an urban disaster zone, travel or rural area far from hospital, or natural area miles from an access point, during the critical minutes or hours before ambulance arrival. Come away with actual do-it-yourself care-giving skill and confidence, and 2-year SOLO certification. Counts as WFR Recertification, too. No prerequisites. YOUR SPOT IS NOT RESERVED UNTIL YOU'VE COMPLETELY REGISTERED AT WWW.SOLOWFA.COM \***Spaces are limited. REGISTER: www.solowfa.com or 434.326.4697** Can't make these dates? Check out more course locations and dates on our website. WHO: Open to the general public, adults & teens with solid attention spans. Know your loved ones are safe wherever they are. WHY: Mired in a disaster zone, travel or rural area far from a hospital, or natural area miles from an access point ... accidents, destructive weather, and terrorism happen, and all-too-often members of a group are not capable of dealing with the emergency. This leads to improper care of the patient, and endangers the entire group. Many recreational accidents are preventable, and improper care of trauma can compound even simple injuries. Very few first aid programs actually address the issues of providing emergency care in a setting where 911 is overwhelmed or not immediately reachable. In this course, classroom instruction and Q&A are interwoven with practical work and problem-solving exercises. Hands-on experience - a most powerful learning tool - during scenarios comprise \~50% of class. TIMING: This is a 2-day class, Saturday and Sunday, 8:00am -7pm each day. Fee: $295 (Earlybird) $325 (If registering less than 30 days before class)
