Toniann will provide teens and young adults in our Project Stewardship program with a variety of full group and team activities where participants can fine-tune their true voice through music and movement while learning to read people through musical sounds/rhythms\, body language and facial expressions in addition to observing different interpretations. \n\n\n\nImprov theatrics activities include musical games using voice and instruments\, creating a themed-song-together\, stepping to beats and walking into confidence. How do we move based on how we feel? We will learn to share our voices\, encourage others\, and build assertiveness skills while fostering creativity and enjoying group dynamics. The activities are flexible and customized for each group. Participant input will also guide the process as they recognize the benefits of how fine-tuning their voice can be implemented in daily life. \n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\nIf you are already a member of our Project Stewardship program\, please register using the “Member” registration below.

It’s a visual representation or roadmap of how you envision your best life\, helping you to manifest it. Making a vision board is meant to excite you about the future.  \n\n\n\nAt this workshop\, we will be taking a unique approach to vision boarding by first learning a bit about Feng Shui and the Bagua. The Bagua (or parts of your house or room that have symbolic meaning) will be used as a template for the physical board and placement of images\, words\, and affirmations on it. We will discuss our thoughts and ideas as a group\, list out some of the specifics to organize ourselves\, create our vision board\, and share our final products. Our goal is that this exercise inspire and aid our Project Stewardship teens and young adults in building thinking and planning skills towards creating the reality of their dreams.  \n\n\n\nPlease feel free to give some thought to areas of your life in alignment with the Bagua (i.e.\, creativity\, helpful people and travel\, health\, relationships\, prosperity\, reputation\, family) and bring in related images from magazines or internet printouts to have them available and possibly to paste on your board. We will also have materials / images available for this purpose as new ideas continue to flow during the workshop. \n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\nIf you are already a member of our Project Stewardship program\, please register using the “Member” registration below.

Special thanks to our program participants\, Laura and Brooke\, through whom the idea manifested! \n\n\n\nIt is our pleasure to arrange a day to dedicate the Kindness Garden to two extraordinary individuals whose heart-centered existence impacted ours: To Antonet Bivona-Bayrak\, my childhood friend and “soul sister”\, lover of children and animals\, whose kindness and amazing smile lit up the lives of all those who knew her. And\, to Bernice Simmons\, one of our Sangha kids who volunteered with us and served as an important advocate for herself and others\, a beckon of light and kindness. Her rainbow light continues to shine on (literally) which we will discuss at the dedication celebration. \n\n\n\nOn this special day\, dedicated to those who embodied kindness and advocated for its presence in the world\, we will take our nature trail to the Kindness Garden and share some readings and stories with one another. And\, also plant some seeds of kindness in the garden. We will then return to Malcolm House for a reception with refreshments\, music\, and community camaraderie. All are welcome to JOIN US! \n\n\n\nRAINDATE: Saturday\, 6/29\, 1-3pm \n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\nFor this special event\, please register for a free ticket and make a donation in the amount of your choice.
