Body Inquiry Session This is a 75-90 minute session that combines massage therapy and coaching! We rely so much on thinking as a way to problem solve and although a clear mind and sharp intellect are wonderful resources, the mental realm has its limitations.

In a Body Inquiry Session, I support you in being with sensations in the body and following these sensations as a way to gather wisdom about whatever you may be facing. Sensations are like clues to unlocking a mystery. Pain, whether physical or emotional is transformed into a powerful invitation to inquire more, listen and adjust. Pleasant sensations are open doorways that can lead you to a different perspective. You will leave this session with a deepened relationship with your body as a resource and a different perspective on your current challenge.

Bring the necessary tools and get your bike ready, in coordination with your help, while helping you learn, (this option if tune-up is simple); OR 2. Haul your bike into a shop (this option if tune-up is more complex) and coordinate with you to pick up, together a few days later, with your payment (a basic tune-up/parts runs about $60) and haul it back to your house/apartment. During the whole process I can show you nice places to ride and help you get generally ready for some good exercise & fun on the bike! 0 000080.0 80 .00025E7 25

Podcast Premiere Cocktail Party with the Amended Podcast Host: Laura Free 2020 is the 100th anniversary of the the 19th Amendment - which said states couldn’t restrict the vote on the basis of sex. Humanities New York is producing a professional produced audio narrative series (podcast), which looks at the lesser known stories of people who fought for the ballot for all women, and considers their tactics, their ideas, their actions, and ultimately their triumphs and defeats. Particularly taking into account the voices of African American, Latinx, Asian American, and working-class women, Amended seeks to amply stories from the suffrage movement that aren’t typically told in our mythology of the movement. The podcast will premiere online and on WCNY radio (among others) in the summer of 2020. Come and listen to the first episode while sipping a cocktail, glass of wine, or other pleasing beverage and nibbling on some delicious hors d’oeuvres (all dietary preferences/needs welcome!) Then, if the spirits move you, have a chat about the episode with your fellow party goers and the podcast host. 0 000075.0 75 .0004E7 40
