📚 Do you love reading, but wish you had a structure and a community to share your insights with? Join our small circle of curious minds (just 4 members per gathering) as we come together for an hour of focused reading—in the calm setting of a library or the cozy atmosphere of a café. Here’s how it works: First part: Quiet reading on your own—bring a book you’re exploring, whether it’s philosophy, history, psychology, literature, or anything meaningful to you. Second part: We regroup and each person shares key takeaways, insights, or questions sparked by their reading. This sparks a structured yet free-flowing conversation around ideas, perspectives, and personal reflections. Why join? Add structure to your reading habit. Discover new books, authors, and ideas through others’ choices. Build real connections by sharing and listening deeply. Socialize around something meaningful instead of small talk.

**Join us for the next gathering of *The Wellbeing Practice Circle*, a monthly in-person space to reflect, connect, and practice the essential ingredients of wellbeing. This is a free event.** This session will focus on **emotions and emotional regulation**, using *The Wheel of Emotions and Feelings* as a simple and powerful tool to help us better understand what we feel and how emotions shape our choices, relationships, and behaviors. Together, we’ll explore how to: * Notice what our bodies are telling us * Name emotions with more clarity and nuance * Gently regulate emotions—both individually and collectively Rather than trying to “fix” or suppress emotions, this gathering invites curiosity, self-awareness, and compassion. We’ll practice creating a supportive space where emotions can be acknowledged, shared, and understood as sources of insight and wisdom. As always, this session will offer time to connect with others, share reflections, and continue building a caring and grounded wellbeing community. No prior experience is needed—just openness, curiosity, and respect for yourself and others. **Come as you are.**

Capoeira (capo-way-ra) is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that is unlike any other martial art. Capoeira incorporates flowing movements with kicks, dodges, and some acrobatics. It is often mistaken for a dance for those reasons. Since it’s origins in the 17th century, it has evolved from a secret fighting practice into an art emphasizing self-expression and community celebration. It is great for the body and mind! In addition to gaining strength and flexibility in class, students learn about Brazilian culture, history, and language (Portuguese). On November 26, 2014 capoeira was granted a special protected status as "intangible cultural heritage” by UNESCO. No need to have a Capoeira background to join this class, just an open mind to try out a new way to move! Beginners welcome. **Please reserve your spot at www.piesfitnessyoga.com**.
