Friday 7am: Jamie Reygle leads a spacious awareness practice.

Friday 8:30am: Mindfulness 101

Jamie Reygle leads an interactive discussion introduces the key concepts of mindfulness and distinguishing between what mindfulness is and what it is not. The session includes the introduction of several mindfulness techniques that can serve both during the festival and IRL. Come with your questions, leave with fresh insights.

Saturday 7am: Joe Klein leads a body scan and loving kindness practice.

Saturday 8:30am: Sex, Drugs, Facebook & Ice Cream: Seeking a mindful way with sensual pleasures.

Things that feel good and taste yummy often take us on a ride that can be delicious and also dangerous. Both of those possibilities excite the brain and make it easy to develop habits of consumption that we sometimes regret. This talk explains some of the brain/body pathways that lead to repetitive or compulsive habit patterns, and introduces mindfulness techniques to help you steer a middle way with sense pleasure. Presented by Joe Klein.

Sunday 7am: Lori Marsh leads a 4-facet meditation, designed to lead into love consciousness.

Sunday 8:30am: Walking Stick Yoga

The Yoga sutras by Patanjali begin by saying Now begins the practice of yoga. The purpose of yoga is to calm the fluctuations of the mind stuff so that the true self may be seen. Practicing yoga postures with walking sticks allows one to find stability and ease in poses. Through this ease, the mind can quiet and rest in the present moment, simply observing what is. Join us for a gentle practice using walking sticks.  This practice is especially helpful for anyone with joint or balance issues.  Walking sticks are also great for walking meditation or for practicing yoga outdoors without a mat. Presented by Lori Marsh.

Daily at 10am from the Tea & Jam Dome: Mindful Walk with Lori Marsh

Come take a mindful walk around the festival grounds. Using walking sticks we will experience the present moment with stability and ease. Walking sticks are great for everyone but are especially beneficial if you have any issues with balance. Or, as an exercise regime, walking sticks add an upper body workout to walking. Please come play.

Daily at 3pm in the Tea & Jam Dome: InSpire mindfulness community gathering with Jamie Reygle

InSpire mindfulness communities have been gathering across the region and online since 2019. These gatherings provide an opportunity to participate in mindful discussion and share mindfulness practices. Give yourself some respite from the festival and meet others who appreciate a still, quiet space from time-to-time. Numbers are limited, so register in the Tea & Jam tent beforehand if you can.
