SUMMARY:Wende Museum Meditations with Christiane Wolf
DESCRIPTION:Join us for weekly mindfulness meditations. All are welcome\, regardless of experience level.\n\n\nJoin us for our new weekly mindfulness meditations. Whether you are new to meditation or already have experience we welcome you to this community sit in the beautiful garden of the Wende Museum. \nYou do not have to join all sessions but can join as your schedule allows. \nWhat is mindfulness? Mindfulness is being fully present to your life instead of being on autopilot. Our mind tends to rehash the past and to rehearse the future. There is nothing wrong with that except that it does it too much and it keeps us from being with what is actually happening right in this moment. We can feel like life is passing us by and we miss a lot of good moments with family and friends\, in nature and just throughout the day. When we are present we become better listeners and observers and will make better choices\, big and small. People who regularly practice mindfulness meditation report overall stress levels going down and being able to deal with whatever comes their way in a better\, healthier way. They also feel more connected and more joyful. \nWe practice this through mindfulness meditation where we train the mind to stay with an anchor\, like the sensations of the breath. Eventually the mind will calm down and so will the body. We learn tools to be with a busy mind\, challenging emotions\, and even physical pain. We can access peace\, calm and joy that arises independently of what’s going on in our lives at this time. \nTeacher Bio: \nChristiane Wolf is an internationally known mindfulness and Insight (Vipassana) meditation teacher. Originally from Berlin\, Germany\, she is a longtime proud resident of Culver City where her three children attended (or still attend) CCMS and CCHS. \nChristiane was trained as an OB/GYN in Germany but pivoted to not only practicing mindfulness meditation but then teaching it\, mainly through InsightLA. \nShe was trained and mentored by Trudy Goodman\, Jack Kornfield\, Jon Kabat-Zinn\, Gil Fronsdal \nand others. \nChristiane is the author of Outsmart Your Pain – Mindfulness and Self-Compassion to Help You Leave Chronic Pain Behind and the coauthor of A Clinician’s Guide to Teaching Mindfulness\, a classic training manual for mindfulness teachers. \nCheck www.christianewolf.com for more info.

Mindfulness is being fully present to your life instead of being on autopilot. Our mind tends to rehash the past and to rehearse the future. There is nothing wrong with that except that it does it too much and it keeps us from being with what is actually happening right in this moment. We can feel like life is passing us by and we miss a lot of good moments with family and friends\, in nature and just throughout the day.

SUMMARY:THE DREAM & THE LIE: Film Screening and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:A powerful remix of Albanian propaganda films that explores art and control\, followed by a Q&A with artist Elena Dorfman.\n\n\nIsolated. Paranoid. Defiant. From 1944 to 1991\, Albania was Eastern Europe’s most secretive regime. Amidst severe oppression\, more than 300 films were produced to promote the strict form of Marxism espoused by its omnipotent gold-toothed dictator\, Enver Hoxha. \nIn THE DREAM & THE LIE\, Albanian-American artist Elena Dorfman reimagines this rarely seen cinematic archive into a powerful\, immersive triptych art film. Composed of dozens of propaganda features and documentaries from the Albanian National Film Archive\, the work is a visual symphony in three movements\, exploring nationalism\, forced modernization\, and the human cost of state control. \nAt once haunting and poetic\, THE DREAM & THE LIE examines the tension between art and politics as something both specific and universal. In today’s world\, where the arts face increasing challenges under ideologically repressive governments\, Dorfman’s film serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of artistic expression\, and as a tribute to the artists who create compelling work despite severe restrictions. \nJoin us for a screening followed by a Q&A with the artist. \nBio: \nElena Dorfman is an Albanian American artist working in film and photography. Her numerous projects have been exhibited and collected by major institutions around the world. THE DREAM & THE LIE is her debut feature-length film. She’s based in Los Angeles. \nAn ADA-accessible entrance to the Glorya Kaufman Community Center is available through the gate from the parking lot at 10858 Culver Blvd.
