SUMMARY:Yoga for Improving Sleep with Tama Soble: A FREE on line Mindfulness Toronto Community Event Tues March 24\, 12pm - 1pm EST
DESCRIPTION:The body and mind both play a role when sleep is elusive. Let’s explore asana\, pranayama and meditation practices that quiet the nervous and respiratory systems\, and gently unwind the tension throughout the body. In this way we will begin to feel and understand a quiet and comfortable state that can guide us towards deep and productive sleep. No previous yoga experience is required. \nFor your comfort in this online session\, please bring a yoga mat or other comfortable surface to rest on during our practice together. \nTama Soble completed her yoga teacher training at Esther Myers Yoga Studio with Esther Myers\, Monica Voss and Paola di Paola. She has been practicing yoga and meditation for over 40 years. Tama co-owns and teaches classes and teacher training at Esther Myers Yoga Studio. She conducts retreats in Ontario\, British Columbia and internationally\, and has been teaching classes specifically focused on supporting those with anxiety\, depression and insomnia for two decades. \nDiscover more about Esther Meyers Yoga Studio and Tama’s offerings here: https://www.estheryoga.com/ \nTo Register go to Event Brite

SUMMARY:Taking in the Good: Rewiring the Mind towards Happiness and Joy
DESCRIPTION:Taking in the Good: Rewiring the Mind towards Happiness and Joy \nJoin us for an evening exploring why negativity has such a strong pull\, and how science shows we can retrain the brain toward happiness and joy.   \nYou’ll be introduced to practical\, evidence-based ways to counterbalance this tendency\, including practices that cultivate gratitude\, joy\, and awe. These practices aren’t about ignoring difficulty—they’re about training the mind to register goodness more fully and deeply.\n\nThe evening will include gentle teaching\, guided practices\, and meditations that you can easily bring into daily life. Through reflection and experience\, you’ll learn how to “take in the good” in ways that support resilience\, emotional balance\, and a greater sense of ease. No prior meditation experience is needed—just a curiosity about how small shifts in attention can create meaningful change. \nInstructor: Melanie Schwindt is a graduate of the Awareness Training Institute in collaboration with the Greater Good Science Center at the University of California\, Berkeley. She offers evidence-based mindfulness and meditation practices grounded in neuroscience\, embodiment\, and compassion-based inquiry. Known for her relational and inclusive teaching style\, Melanie meets people where they are\, offering practical tools and contemplative practices that help navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity\, steadiness\, and care.\nFor more information\, visit www.melanieschwindt.com. \nDate: Wednesday\, March 25th\, 2026 \nTime: 6:30 to 8:30pm \nPlace: The Staircase Theatre 27 Dundurn St North\, Hamilton \nFees: Early bird until March 18th: $25 members; $35 non-member*; $10 student/financial hardship\, After March 19th: $30 members; $40 non-member*; $15 student/financial hardship \n*Note: Membership in Mindfulness Hamilton is $25 per year  \nRegister Here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/taking-in-the-good-rewiring-the-mind-towards-happiness-and-joy-tickets-1981272264678?aff=oddtdtcreator
