Temple Beth Israel

Jewish Movement Meditation awakens the body’s own capacity for self transformation. With music, sound, and breath, we use techniques of Jewish meditation to invoke the internal genius of the body’s living waters—the mayyim chayyim—and their power of self-renewal. Join us as we dive into the sacred waters of life to restore health, build core strength, and listen in together to the wisdom of the body. We will work on the floor individually, but together, in comfortable clothing without zippers or buttons. No special experience, strength level, or movement training is necessary. But it is important to form the safe space of a working group or community. This is an ongoing practice group. Newcomers are invited to join at the start of each four week period.
Evlyn Gould holds a M.A. and a Ph.D. in French Literature and a CAS Distinguished Professorship at the University of Oregon as well as B.A. degrees in French and Dance. She has trained 30 years in classical dance and has worked for 5 years in Continuum Movement.

Kol Zimra Chant Circle
with Lisa Kaye chant leader
Thursday evening, 7-8:30 pm
Temple Beth Israel
1175 E 29th, Eugene
541-485-7218
www.TBIeugene.org
donation
Based on Rabbi Shefa Gold's teachings about chant and meditation.
Come experience an evening of sacred chant as a follow-up to the two chant workshops at TBI in April and May. This evening will focus on our personal experience of chant as a transformative journey. Chant is not about what our voices 'sound' like. It is about hearing with the 'inner' ear. Through the deep vibrations and repetitive sounds of ancient sacred words chant takes us on an inward journey through the gates of prayer and into a deep nurturing silence between the chants. We step into a conscious awareness that we are One, that our breath is One, that our voice is One, and that our connection to God is present in every moment. Come add your voice to building this mishkan of sacred chant.
Lisa Kaye has been leading Jewish Renewal chant circles for the past two years. She graduated from Rabbi Shefa Gold's two year Kol Zimra chant leader program in 2009. Kol Zimra is in its 8th year of training rabbis, cantors and lay leaders in Jewish Renewal chant.

Imagine discovering a hidden, uniquely feminine superpower that transforms your connection to your body, liberates your movement, and awakens every cell to your sumptuous, creative, fiery essence while igniting the innate wisdom of your female soul.
For thousands of years, Yoginis all around the globe have been practicing the beautifully tantalizing art of sacred movement and "Wild Yoga" to discover and maintain a deep connection with their sensual, creative power. While many modern day yoga styles are rooted in a strictly male lineage, Yoga Gone Wild brings back the original mystery school of the powerful feminine lineage of Yoga.
In this safe, supportive, ladies-only workshop, you will reawaken your lusciousness and tap into the well of feminine freedom and expression that lives within you.
This workshop is open to women of all ages, abilities and body types and includes a guided yoga-movement practice, an introduction to the feminine lineage of Yoga, and exercises to awaken your "Wild Yogini".
Meghan Bowen has taught yoga and movement since 1998. Thousands of teaching hours later, Meghan is a devoted body advocate and passionate teacher. Meghan’s teaching approach is strongly rooted in trusting the body’s inherent intelligence, creating a rich, inquisitive environment for the workshops she leads. Meghan’s work has been influenced by many paths, including Prana Flow Yoga with Shiva Rea, 5 Rhythms with Gabrielle Roth, and teachings on Feminine Spirituality by Chameli Ardagh. Also a personal trainer with a degree in Exercise Physiology, Meghan brings a keen understanding of the body’s inner workings to her teaching. Drawn to the beauty, power and healing potential of the feminine lineage of yoga, Meghan is infinitely grateful to share it with women who are rediscovering or deepening their connection to their feminine power and sensual nature.
