The Heart is Talking. Are You Listening?
Join your community for an experiential morning exploring the connection between your heart, nervous system, movement, stress, and overall well-being.

• Heart Rate Variability, or HRV, and what those small changes between heartbeats tell us
• The connection between your heart and nervous system
• How stress affects your body and overall well-being
• HeartMath techniques and practices
• Gentle T’ai Chi Chih movement
• Mindful breathing, movement, and awareness
• Simple practices you can take into your everyday life
