Songwriting

Offering of sound to the temple you reside is a purification process. The space within is cleansed and is receptive to what is. The Sounds offered in this session may intensify your presence. And that, offering presence is said to be healing . The function of the instrument Gong and Singing Bowls are commonly used in sacred places to induce quietude and silence – the cosmic background Sound and space where life thrives best. This is a simple and gentle method to evoke stillness. And as a consequence, the act of doing is refined to be meditative and focused.

Rest and reconnect to your True Nature with Yoga Nidra and awaken to a life of unshakable peace and wellbeing. Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) is derived from the ancient tantric practice and is a unique combination of modern science and ancient yoga teachings. It is a guided mindfulness-based practice that focuses on body sensing, breathing techniques, emotional relaxation and guided consciousness meditation. Backed by science and research, the practice has been proven to assist with deep rest, stress, anxiety, insomnia, pain management and PTSD. Yoga Nidra can be a loving and supportive practice to living your best life. Life can be hard at times, sometimes really hard and we could all use a little support, self-care/love and rest from the mayhem. In this highly regenerative meditative state, we gently allow the sound and vibrations from the Gongs to shift and release stagnant energy and tension accumulated in the bodies. You can restore and rejuvenate your body, heal and recover from illness, and re-wire your brain for greater mental and emotional balance and resiliency.

Celebrate a double treat of an immersive Kundalini experience followed by a soul soothing Sound Healing. The teacher concludes each class with a Gong Bath to help one experience the deeper connection of body and mind. The deep resonating sounds will enable one to go into a deeply meditated state, allowing the mind and body to fully decompress and let go. Incorporating both spiritual and physical aspects of yoga, Kundalini Yoga incorporates movement, dynamic breathing techniques and meditation. The goal is to help to strengthen intuition and willpower, as well as activate and rebalance the nervous and glandular systems. The practice is great for building stamina, strengthening the body, increasing lung capacity and helping people to break unwanted habits and addictions. Prepare to soak in state of bliss, journeying home with a relaxed body, mind and heart.

Come try Kirtan: It’s a simple, music-based meditation that helps you get out of your head and feel centered. Ever feel **stuck in your head?** Kirtan is a practice designed to help with that. While many of us think of yoga as just physical poses, Bhakti Yoga (the yoga of devotion) is **a practice for the heart**, using music and singing to connect. The main technique is Kirtan, or chanting mantras. It’s a **simple but powerful way** to help "control the mind" (which is literally what 'mantra' means!). On the outside, we’re just singing accessible melodies in a call-and-response style with a few Sanskrit words. But internally, the practice works its magic by helping you **set that over-thinking mind aside.** It’s an amazing way to tap into a **calm, joyful, and centered vibe.** **The best part?** You don’t need to understand the language or have **any prior experience at all.** Come **try it for yourself** and meet some great, **like-minded people**. Join us for Kirtan to heal our hearts: **Every First Friday of the month** **730pm – 9pm** oneness yoga 20 Lor Telok, #03-01, Singapore 049032 Directions: [https://tinyurl.com/kirtandirections](https://tinyurl.com/kirtandirections "https://tinyurl.com/kirtandirections") **A homecooked dinner is served after Kirtan.** **Pay As You Wish** Drop a donation on the actual day.

Purchase a free ticket on Eventbrite to book your spot. **Please cancel if you cannot make it so that someone else can have the spot.** This event is organised by a group of volunteers who just love kirtan so much that they like to share their joy. **Things to note:** \- We will be barefoot \- We will be sitting on the floor but plenty of chairs available if you prefer chairs **Things to bring:** \- Water bottle \- Scarf/jacket if you are afraid of cold from Aircon **What we will be doing:** \- Short lecture about the practice \- Singing in the musical meditation \- Enjoy a homecooked Sattvic dinner together

Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you.

**Caller: Gaye Fifer** **Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

The topic for January is "Chemistry" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 7:00 pm, show starts at 7:30 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
