Breath Work for Healing — Thursdays in July & Aug 2015

CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) 41 E 11th St FL11, New York, NY, United States

Breathwork is a three-part, active meditation that gets us out of our mind and into our body. Breathing first into the belly to stir up the stuck thoughts, buried emotions, blocked energy, and old stories, we breathe into the heart center to purify, honor, and transform with love, before we exhale and release out an open mouth. Increasing the oxygen level and energy in our body creates a space of openness, healing, clarity, and trust for our intuitive impulses, inner wisdom, and creativity.

Helen will guide and support you through the breathing using music, affirmations, and energy healing.  Breathing is a great modality of SELF-healing for anyone looking to dive deeper into themselves. Your breath. Your body. Your experience. Your healing.

Emotional and mental blocks are also held energetically and physically within the body in the form of vibrations. Witness its release after a sound healing session.

Lecture by Hideko Yamashita, Decluttering Guru & Multi-million Selling Author of Dan Sha Ri

CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) 41 E 11th St FL11, New York, NY, United States

Long before Marie Kondo’s #1 bestselling book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up took the world by storm, another Japanese bestselling author, Hideko Yamashita, introduced the underlying concept of "Dan Sha Ri.” More than just the art of decluttering one’s closets and drawers, Dan Sha Ri teaches us how to carefully observe our relationship to the stuff to which we cling and to free our minds of attachments which do not serve us. If you were intrigued by Ms. Kondo’s book and would like to dig deeper into the ideas which inspired it, you’ll love Dan Sha Ri.

"If you have ever opened a full closet and found nothing to wear, or stayed with a boyfriend you are no longer in love with, let go of them and try danshari," Yamashita told a packed room of anxious urbanites on a recent visit to Beijing. "Get rid of the unwanted things so you can build up what you really want."

Film Screenings + Q&A on the Physical & Psychological Effects of the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster

CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) 41 E 11th St FL11, New York, NY, United States

On Friday, 9/11/15 at 7 pm, CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) and friends invite you to a film program and Q&A about the ways in which the people of Japan continue to grapple with the myriad effects, both seen and unseen, of the ongoing Fukushima nuclear disaster. Light refreshments will be served. Tickets are $15 and children may sit on the floor for free. All proceeds after $150 expenses (for the space and refreshments) will go to the filmmakers.

THE PROGRAM (in Japanese w/ English subtitles)
Little Kyota Errand Hood 20', 2014, dir. by Satsuki Okay
A2-B-C 70', 2013, dir. by Ian Thomas Ash

Narrative short “Little Kyota Errand Hood” focuses on the way that children and parents apprehend the invisible threat of possible radiation exposure and the conflicts and relationships that their attitudes spark. Feature documentary "A2-B-C” documents the growing number of children suffering from nose bleeds, skin rashes, and thyroid issues and the difficulty of receiving reliable information about the radiation threat from the authorities. Both films illustrate the ways in which Japanese parents have sought to take charge of the situation and implement their own solutions to care for their families and communities.

Sept 11, of course, marks the 14th anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center as well as the 4.5 year anniversary of the Tohoku Earthquake, Tsunami and Nuclear Disaster in Japan. Both events triggered many responses. While the films on this program are set in Japan, they speak also to life in the aftermath of 9/11 and other environmental disasters around the world: the not knowing whether the area is toxic or unsafe; not being able to get reliable information from the government; not knowing whether to relocate or return; not knowing whether subsequent illness are caused by the disaster or not; not knowing whether to live everyday with constant caution or to adopt a qué será, será attitude and provide children with a sense of normalcy. It is our hope that this program will promote greater understanding of the difficulties that these man-made disasters cause and renewed compassion for and solidarity with the people trying to live through them and prevent them.
