Mindfulness for Social Change

Join us for a peaceful afternoon of gentle movement and meaningful connection. Together, we’ll explore mindfulness principles, meditation, and restorative yoga practices designed to support both personal well-being and collective healing. Through guided body scans, mindfulness meditation, and conversations inspired by Engaged Buddhism, you will be invited to slow down, reconnect, and reflect on how mindfulness can create positive change within ourselves and our communities.

This workshop is open to all experience levels — whether you are brand new to yoga and meditation or have an established practice. Come as you are.

You will also receive a copy of the workshop presenter Vanessa Ferlaino’s recent book, Human: Expansive Edition, a heartfelt blend of mindfulness, memoir, and self-reflection.
