Unwind: A Drop-in Wellbeing Experience
About this Event
In the midst of doing essential work to meet your missions and move your organizations forward, we invite you to come and unwind with us.
We are bringing back our popular Unwind: A Drop-in Wellbeing Experience to invite nonprofit professionals and community leaders to slow down and reconnect with themselves and one another.
This is your space to move outside of your head and back into your body in an easeful, creative, and mindful way alongside a community who understands the weight you carry.
Throughout this experience, you will be invited to move at your own pace through a menu of creative and sensory-centered practices designed to support your physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
A list of the various offerings can be found below in the agenda. Each one is an invitation to support you in refilling your cup and providing a holistic, mindful experience. Join us for this one-of-a-kind experience and stay for as long as you need.
Registration is $25, though we never want cost to be a barrier. If the fee presents a challenge, please email our Senior Program Manager, Charnae Sanders at [email protected] for support.
