SUMMARY:Wellness Wednesday: Walking Your Way to Vitality
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, November 4\, Dr. Yun Kim and Dr. Jacques MoraMarco lead a special Wellness Wednesday built around walking meditation. The two doctors of traditional East Asian medicine wrote Walking Your Way to Vitality\, a guide to joining walking\, breathwork\, and mindfulness in daily exercise. \nThe morning opens at 9 a.m. in the A-Frame Theater at the Wende Museum with a short sound meditation and an introduction to the Vitality Walk\, one of the six walking styles in the book. It draws on the ideas of qi\, prana\, tai chi\, qigong\, and yoga. The group then moves to the garden to practice the walk together\, followed by Q&A. \nLongtime walkers and meditators alike will find new ways to build a daily practice that strengthens the body and calms the mind. The morning continues with a food service at KONSUM\, a book signing\, and the Soup o Tha Day movement class. \nAbout the Teachers \nDr. Yun Kim is the founder of Emperor’s Wellness\, a doctor of traditional East Asian medicine\, and a fifth-generation lineage student of Sun Tai Chi. She has practiced mindful meditation for 20 years and has learned from teachers including Thich Nhat Hanh\, Trudy Goodman\, and Christiane Wolf. A licensed acupuncturist in California\, she completed her doctoral clinical rotation at the PTSD clinic at the VA Greater Los Angeles Health System and keeps an acupuncture practice in Los Angeles. She earned her Doctor of Education at the University of Southern California Rossier School of Education. \nDr. Jacques MoraMarco\, a doctor of traditional East Asian medicine\, has been a licensed acupuncturist since 1977 and took the first acupuncture licensing exam California ever gave. He apprenticed with See Han Kim\, a renowned teacher of traditional Korean medicine who trained in a monastery\, and did postgraduate work at Ecole Européene d’Acupuncture in Paris. From 1994 to 2004 he studied Sun Tai Chi with Sun Shurong in Beijing and is a fourth-generation lineage holder of the form. He cofounded the International Sun Tai Chi Association with Thomas Duterme and Eric Lee. He has served as a clinic supervisor at Being Alive\, which provides free wellness services to people living with HIV/AIDS in Los Angeles\, and at the PTSD Clinic at the VA Greater Los Angeles Health System. He is dean emeritus of the former Emperor’s College of Traditional East Asian Medicine. \nSeating in the theater is first come\, first served\, so please arrive early. RSVP does not guarantee admission. An ADA-accessible entrance to the Wende Museum’s Community Center is through the gate from the parking lot at 10858 Culver Blvd.

SUMMARY:Wellness Wednesday
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our weekly mindfulness meditation. Whether you are new to meditation or already have experience we welcome you to this community sit in the beautiful A-Frame Theater of the Wende Museum Community Center \nYou do not have to join all sessions but can join as your schedule allows. Each session is followed by complimentary garden refreshments and an optional movement class. \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 and 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. \nAn ADA-accessible entrance to the Wende Museum Community Center is available through the gate from the parking lot at 10858 Culver Blvd. Limited floor space is first come\, first serve. To avoid disruption\, late arrivals may not be admitted. Please arrive early as RSVP does not guarantee admission to this free program.
