5:00pm - 7:00pm
PREREQUISITE: None!
You can't pour from an empty cup, my friend. And you spend so much time giving to others, whether it's at work or home (maybe both!) You deserve 2 hours to fill your energy and positivity tanks, so you can replenish your soul for the kind caregiving that's core to who you are.
Curious about how an improviser approaches mindfulness?
Join us for a one-time workshop to see for yourself ... and leave all connected, chill, and in the moment!
Happier Valley Comedy founder Pam Victor guides you on a joyful exploration of mindfulness through individual and shared practice and play. Each workshop explores a select mindfulness theme through improv games, guided meditation, and connection-enriching discussion. Let's spend some thoughtful and fun time together enjoying the places where mindfulness and improv meet!
Note: Though we'll play 3-4 improv games to practice mindfulness, this is not an improv class. No previous experience with meditation, mindfulness, or improv comedy expected.
This class is designed for wherever you fall on the introvert-extrovert spectrum.
Activities can be adapted to practice sitting, standing, or lying down. (No need to be able to sit cross-legged on the floor or do bendy things with your body... unless that brings you joy!)
