Join us in community to practice mindfulness meditation, a life-enhancing skill that can be learned with consistent practice. This formal, largely-guided, practice utilizes evidence-based cognitive training that bolsters one's ability to handle stress, poor mood, and threat.  This weekly mindfulness practice encourages present moment, non-judgemental, awareness – noticing where your focus and attention are and continually inviting attention to current mind and body sensations in a kind and compassionate way.

Mindfulness meditation opens the possibility to pause, gain perspective, attend to the present, and respond accordingly. In our ever-changing, complex, and challenging world, mindfulness can provide grounding. As one form of contemplative practice, mindfulness meditation can offer a framework to support a more skillful approach to navigating the demands of being human and support practitioners to build resilience and take compassionate action.

Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner, each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. All are welcome to attend weekly or drop-in as their schedule allows.

--------------------------------------------

In celebration of Women’s History Month, CEW+ will feature a program focused on holistic wellness, mindfulness, and empowerment. Join us for a workshop offered virtually via Zoom and continue as part of a community of care throughout the month of March. All participants will receive weekly connectedness communications and an invite to return for an in-person check-in at CEW+ to celebrate a month of wellness.

We will spend time thinking about what self-care means to each of us based on identity, social location, and privilege to recognize the intersecting dynamics that drive this concept. We will explore how mindful connections can help foster communities of care. Drawing on Black feminist thought this workshop centers the words of the late poet Audre Lorde who said, “Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” By identifying the ways that we are and are not caring for ourselves we can begin to cultivate new intentions and practices that model for our families, students, and colleagues why self-care is an integral part of a balanced and whole life for women.

During the workshop, participants will engage in small and large group discussions focused on ideas and questions from the brief readings. We will develop our own “Self-Care Bingo” boards as a culminating activity and participants will be invited to do their best to complete bingo on their board throughout the rest of the month. Participants will be invited back at the end of the month (or beginning of April) to celebrate and share their joys and challenges in community.

This workshop kicks off a month-long series of activities related to practicing self-care and cultivating communities of care in the process. Each week participants will receive an email with resources, tips, and tools for incorporating self-care into their daily lives. The email will help to continue the conversation begun in the workshop and help to strengthen connections between participants and CEW+.

VIRTUAL | Women, Connectedness, and Self-Care (March 20, 2023 4:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/105543 105543-21813953@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, March 20, 2023 4:30pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: CEW+

RSVP here: https://www.cew.umich.edu/events/virtual-women-connectedness-and-self-care-2
--------------------------------------------

In celebration of Women’s History Month, CEW+ will feature a program focused on holistic wellness, mindfulness, and empowerment. Join us for a workshop offered virtually via Zoom and continue as part of a community of care throughout the month of March. All participants will receive weekly connectedness communications and an invite to return for an in-person check-in at CEW+ to celebrate a month of wellness.

We will spend time thinking about what self-care means to each of us based on identity, social location, and privilege to recognize the intersecting dynamics that drive this concept. We will explore how mindful connections can help foster communities of care. Drawing on Black feminist thought this workshop centers the words of the late poet Audre Lorde who said, “Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” By identifying the ways that we are and are not caring for ourselves we can begin to cultivate new intentions and practices that model for our families, students, and colleagues why self-care is an integral part of a balanced and whole life for women.

During the workshop, participants will engage in small and large group discussions focused on ideas and questions from the brief readings. We will develop our own “Self-Care Bingo” boards as a culminating activity and participants will be invited to do their best to complete bingo on their board throughout the rest of the month. Participants will be invited back at the end of the month (or beginning of April) to celebrate and share their joys and challenges in community.

This workshop kicks off a month-long series of activities related to practicing self-care and cultivating communities of care in the process. Each week participants will receive an email with resources, tips, and tools for incorporating self-care into their daily lives. The email will help to continue the conversation begun in the workshop and help to strengthen connections between participants and CEW+.

Join us in community to practice mindfulness meditation, a life-enhancing skill that can be learned with consistent practice. This formal, largely-guided, practice utilizes evidence-based cognitive training that bolsters one's ability to handle stress, poor mood, and threat.  This weekly mindfulness practice encourages present moment, non-judgemental, awareness – noticing where your focus and attention are and continually inviting attention to current mind and body sensations in a kind and compassionate way.

Mindfulness meditation opens the possibility to pause, gain perspective, attend to the present, and respond accordingly. In our ever-changing, complex, and challenging world, mindfulness can provide grounding. As one form of contemplative practice, mindfulness meditation can offer a framework to support a more skillful approach to navigating the demands of being human and support practitioners to build resilience and take compassionate action.

Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner, each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. All are welcome to attend weekly or drop-in as their schedule allows.

Join us in community to practice mindfulness meditation, a life-enhancing skill that can be learned with consistent practice. This formal, largely-guided, practice utilizes evidence-based cognitive training that bolsters one's ability to handle stress, poor mood, and threat.  This weekly mindfulness practice encourages present moment, non-judgemental, awareness – noticing where your focus and attention are and continually inviting attention to current mind and body sensations in a kind and compassionate way.

Mindfulness meditation opens the possibility to pause, gain perspective, attend to the present, and respond accordingly. In our ever-changing, complex, and challenging world, mindfulness can provide grounding. As one form of contemplative practice, mindfulness meditation can offer a framework to support a more skillful approach to navigating the demands of being human and support practitioners to build resilience and take compassionate action.

Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner, each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. All are welcome to attend weekly or drop-in as their schedule allows.

Join us in community to practice mindfulness meditation, a life-enhancing skill that can be learned with consistent practice. This formal, largely-guided, practice utilizes evidence-based cognitive training that bolsters one's ability to handle stress, poor mood, and threat.  This weekly mindfulness practice encourages present moment, non-judgemental, awareness – noticing where your focus and attention are and continually inviting attention to current mind and body sensations in a kind and compassionate way.

Mindfulness meditation opens the possibility to pause, gain perspective, attend to the present, and respond accordingly. In our ever-changing, complex, and challenging world, mindfulness can provide grounding. As one form of contemplative practice, mindfulness meditation can offer a framework to support a more skillful approach to navigating the demands of being human and support practitioners to build resilience and take compassionate action.

Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner, each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. All are welcome to attend weekly or drop-in as their schedule allows.

In this participatory public event, Marsae Lynette presents an evening of film, performance, and community.

Kresge Gilda Award Recipient Marsae Lynette is a dancer, educator, and ethnochoreologist whose research explores the ecological interdependence of women of the African diaspora and freshwater sources through the lens of embodied intelligence and spirituality.

The evening’s journey includes:

– Opening ceremony and intention-setting
– 30-minute film viewing
– Dance performance
– Sunset processional to the Huron River and return to the Freighthouse to conclude

The artist invites audience members to dress in all-white attire.

This performance is a “Pay What You Wish” event. That means that you can decide how much you would like to pay to attend. In most venues, an event like this would cost around $15-25 per person. Please enter the price you would like to pay per ticket, and the number of tickets you wish to reserve.

Join us in community to practice mindfulness meditation, a life-enhancing skill that can be learned with consistent practice. This formal, largely-guided, practice utilizes evidence-based cognitive training that bolsters one's ability to handle stress, poor mood, and threat.  This weekly mindfulness practice encourages present moment, non-judgemental, awareness – noticing where your focus and attention are and continually inviting attention to current mind and body sensations in a kind and compassionate way.

Mindfulness meditation opens the possibility to pause, gain perspective, attend to the present, and respond accordingly. In our ever-changing, complex, and challenging world, mindfulness can provide grounding. As one form of contemplative practice, mindfulness meditation can offer a framework to support a more skillful approach to navigating the demands of being human and support practitioners to build resilience and take compassionate action.

Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner, each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. All are welcome to attend weekly or drop-in as their schedule allows.

There’s more to bees than honey (July 29, 2023 10:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/113189 113189-21830369@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Saturday, July 29, 2023 10:00am

What are native bees?
Native bees are diverse.
Native bees are large.
Native bees are small, Native bees are metallic.
Native bees wear masks. Native bees are specialists.
Native bees are super pollinators.
When we talk about supporting bees, many people naturally think of honey bees. Honey bees can help pollinate crops, especially on farms where there might not be enough native pollinators around. Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.
Honey bees were introduced to the Americas from Eurasia and Africa by humans, which means they haven’t co-evolved with our native plants and animals. Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.

These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.

What are native bees?
Native bees are diverse.
Native bees are large.
Native bees are small, Native bees are metallic.
Native bees wear masks. Native bees are specialists.
Native bees are super pollinators.
When we talk about supporting bees, many people naturally think of honey bees. Honey bees can help pollinate crops, especially on farms where there might not be enough native pollinators around. Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.
Honey bees were introduced to the Americas from Eurasia and Africa by humans, which means they haven’t co-evolved with our native plants and animals. Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.

This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.

What are native bees?
Native bees are diverse.
Native bees are large.
Native bees are small, Native bees are metallic.
Native bees wear masks. Native bees are specialists.
Native bees are super pollinators.
When we talk about supporting bees, many people naturally think of honey bees. Honey bees can help pollinate crops, especially on farms where there might not be enough native pollinators around. Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.
Honey bees were introduced to the Americas from Eurasia and Africa by humans, which means they haven’t co-evolved with our native plants and animals. Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!

Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.
Honey bees were introduced to the Americas from Eurasia and Africa by humans, which means they haven’t co-evolved with our native plants and animals. Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.

There’s more to bees than honey (September 5, 2023 10:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/113189 113189-21830407@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, September 5, 2023 10:00am

What are native bees?
Native bees are diverse.
Native bees are large.
Native bees are small, Native bees are metallic.
Native bees wear masks. Native bees are specialists.
Native bees are super pollinators.
When we talk about supporting bees, many people naturally think of honey bees. Honey bees can help pollinate crops, especially on farms where there might not be enough native pollinators around. Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.
Honey bees were introduced to the Americas from Eurasia and Africa by humans, which means they haven’t co-evolved with our native plants and animals. Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.
