SUMMARY:Dharma in Motion:  Malaya Flow
DESCRIPTION:Dharma in Motion:  Malaya Flow with Jessy Kondo Zapanta  \nMalaya means freedom in Tagalog. Malaya Flow allows you freedom of movement\, to inhabit your body\, to reconnect to spirit. Weaving indigenous Filipino community wisdom with years of physical therapy\, somatic practice\, and training in trauma-informed Raja yoga\, qi gong\, and 5-element acupressure\, Jessy will guide you through dynamic movements and stationary meditation based on your own body’s accessibility needs. You will build strength\, spaciousness\, and self-compassion. All movements can be done sitting\, lying down\, or standing up. \nWith extensive education in bodywork/somatic/energy practices and deep intuition informed by their life experience as a Bay Area-born mixed person of color navigating trauma and chronic illnesses\, Jessy Kondo Zapanta brings compassion\, curiosity and mind-body wisdom to class. Jessy is no stranger to injuries and accessibility needs\, and hopes to create a nurturing space where all bodies feel welcomed.

SUMMARY:Love: Supported by the Four Divine States
DESCRIPTION:Open to All expressions of love: friends\, partners\, siblings\, parent/child\, roommates\, etc.\nwith Rev. Liên Shutt \nWe all want love. \nAnd\, having and holding love and loving feelings can be challenging.

Click HERE to register. \nCost: There is no registration fee for attending this event\, nor most EBMC events. However\, EBMC is not independently funded. The Center and the teachers will be sustained only by your voluntary donations (the practice of generous giving\, or “dana”). Please donate generously\, in proportion to your ability: \n* Either online (you will be offered an opportunity during the online registration process to donate to EBMC; the teachers will not receive any part of this online donation).\n* Or at the event\, in the two baskets at EBMC\, one for the Center\, the second for the Teacher. \nThank you for your generosity. EBMC will be only be sustained through our collective generosity. \nFragrance-free: In order to protect the health of community members with environmental illness\, please do not wear fragranced products (including “natural” fragrances) or clothes laundered in fragranced products to EBMC. \nEBMC is wheelchair accessible.
