Join Jill Briansky of Purple Lotus for this grounding meditation.
Within each of us lives a rich inner world made up of many parts—each holding unique energy, emotion, and wisdom. Some parts protect us, some carry old stories, and others are waiting to be seen and embraced. In this heart-centered talk, we’ll explore the nature of these internal energy parts and how they influence the way we move.
Through gentle guidance and embodied presence, you'll be led in a grounding meditation to meet and connect with one of your inner parts—the one that’s ready to step forward and be witnessed. This experience is an invitation to deepen your self-awareness, soften into compassion, and begin (or continue) the healing dialogue within.
Whether you're familiar with inner parts work or just beginning to explore your energetic landscape, this experience offers a sacred space for insight, healing, and connection to your true essence. Registration Required.

In this virtual session with Meg O'Rourke of Harmony With Food, Meg will speak about Firmicutes and how studies have shown that a higher abundance of Firmicutes in the gut microbiome is associated with increased energy absorption and fat deposition, potentially leading to weight gain.
This suggests that an imbalance in gut bacteria may contribute to weight loss resistance. Addressing such imbalances through dietary changes and functional nutrition approaches could aid in achieving sustainable weight loss and improved health.
At Harmony with Food, we aim to empower patients with the knowledge and tools to optimize their health through functional medicine.
A link to the event will be emailed the day before the event. |

All of this is available anytime the library is open, of course, but we’re hoping that researching together on Monday nights will help us build a genealogical community while we each build our family trees.
