SunRaven Book
Club
Written by the best selling author of
Tuesdays With Morrie and The Five People You Meet
in Heaven, Mitch Albom, this book is a story about the
power of love.
As the title suggests it is an exploration of our
personal fantasies about having a second chance to go back and
fix our broken relationships--with others and ourselves.
In the end, For One More Day
mostly forces us to reflect on our current choices.
Please join us for that discussion at
SunRaven on Monday June 18th at 7:30

Mindful
Eating:
Thursday May 24
Considering the importance of healthy nutrition, it is
ironic that so many of us are so easily swayed by diet gurus
and the latest fads. More so, the medical profession, despite
its claims, understands little about the true nature of food.
And neither truly appreciated the integrative activity of
eating itself.
We
are simply in a dream world if we really believe that there is
a technological solution or a one-size-fits-all perfect diet.
So
what then, do we believe, and what should we understand about
food? And, where does our food come from? What is our
experience when we are eating?
This
first discussion will approach "nutrition" from aspects that
cover the mind, body and spirit of food and those that consume
it. It will help us orient to the essence of the integration
of physical nutrients and the more subtle energy that we also
acquire when we eat.
Fasting and
Detox:
Thursday May 31
We
spend much of our lives eating and accumulating unwanted
debris, not only from the food we eat, but from the
environment and the conditions in which we live. What happens
to the "gunk" (or amma as it is called in Ayurveda)? How might
we clear ourselves and what are the implications if we do not
do this effectively?
This
second discussion will describe the effects of toxins on the
body, mind and spirit. We will specifically review the various
types of fasts and cleanses and how we can maximize the
elimination of toxins in order to become more
clear.
Living in
Balance:
Thursday June 7
Our
culture is famous for its intensity and fast pace. We even
approach the business of rest and relaxation with vim and
vigor. Cultures in the East, however, more readily realize
that there are distinct cycles that require mindful attention
and periods of both activity and inactivity. We would do well
to apply this thinking to each--the mind, body and
spirit.
This
third discussion is meant to encourage participants to
recognize and honor the inherent cycles in nature,
specifically our own. Ideal health might be best equated to a
state of balance that can only be achieved in this way. We
will share ideas that may help us move from a more focused,
goal oriented mindset to one that revolves around the
center.
We
hope you will join us for these
discussions,
