ALL ARE WELCOME! COME, RELAX, ALIGN AND PLAY.
The journeys are created to bring you into your body, to release that which no longer serves you, align with your higher self and create new ways of being. Singing bowls, drums, rattles, chimes and other instruments will be used to reinforce and energize the meditation, all in a joyous and soulful way. You need to bring a mat to lie on, a blanket, a pillow, water, and an opened mind and heart. The event is free, but donations will be accepted.
What will you receive from these meditations

Muriel Spark’s timeless classic about a controversial teacher who deeply marks the lives of a select group of students in the years leading up to World War II
"Give me a girl at an impressionable age, and she is mine for life!” So asserts Jean Brodie, a magnetic, dubious, and sometimes comic teacher at the conservative Marcia Blaine School for Girls in Edinburgh. Brodie selects six favorite pupils to mold—and she doesn’t stop with just their intellectual lives. She has a plan for them all, including how they will live, whom they will love, and what sacrifices they will make to uphold her ideals. When the girls reach adulthood and begin to find their own destinies, Jean Brodie’s indelible imprint is a gift to some, and a curse to others.
The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie is Spark’s masterpiece, a novel that offers one of twentieth-century English literature’s most iconic and complex characters—a woman at once admirable and sinister, benevolent and conniving.
Reserve a copy of the book through a patron account or call the Beekley at 860-379-7235. The Beekley Book Club is a book discussion group that meets on the third Tuesday of each month from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. All are welcome to join in.
