Relax Relate Release 2014 Workshops
This year we have an amazing line-up of workshops! Check back frequently for updates, additions and the workshop schedule.
Insight meditation helps us build the capacity for ease and freedom in our hearts and minds -- even in the midst of our busy lives. Using simple and loving awareness, we are able to grow in wisdom and compassion and ultimately shift the patterns of stress and contraction that limit our joy. This introduction will provide basic information and tools from this liberating practice.

Pretty Shouldn't Hurt
presented by Lurie Daniel-Favors,
Author of Afro State of Mind
We've all had those moments when we've felt radiantly gorgeous, and other moments when... not so much. This reflective workshop uses media and popular culture to explore our deepest held beliefs about beauty, and how those beliefs affect our self-esteem on a daily basis. You'll learn concrete action steps to transform your "unpretty" moments, and how to radiate the beauty that you are with grace and confidence.
