Day 4 Fall Wellness Week Highlights
Here are highlights from today’s wellness sessions:
Holistic Nutrition Consultant, Neeta Merchant, led us in a heart-centered meditation on the UN International Day of Peace to join with others worldwide to embody the energy to support a peaceful, equitable and sustainable world.
We engaged in a roundtable conversation around the intersections of JEDI - Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion and broader definitions of wellness.
We honoured mother earth and future generations with us through storytelling, songs and prayers via a live streamed event from London, Ontario, Canada. The Share the Water Ceremony honoured the four directions around the sacred fire.
We gathered for a Peace Pole unveiling devoted to commemorating and strengthening the ideals of peace and justice for all. Thank you to all who shared your peaceful heart inspiration and guidance to build a center of peace within and around us.
We investigated the work of Dr. Gabor Mate and watched and discussed a video segment from one of his talks on, ‘The Connection Between Stress and Disease’ focused on elevating our understandings and misconceptions about the relationships of stress, trauma, and disease.
