Mindful Mondays is a gentle, 4-week mindfulness series offering a focused exploration of a monthly theme through steady, nervous-system–aware practice.

February’s theme, Mindfulness for Emotional Balance, invites you to learn how to meet emotions with curiosity instead of overwhelm, and to cultivate simple ways to self-soothe during tender moments. Rather than fixing or suppressing what you feel, this series offers supportive practices for staying present with emotions as they arise.

Each Monday at 8:30 AM CT, we gather for a 30-minute live mindfulness practice that includes a brief arrival, guided meditation, and gentle closing reflection. Practices are trauma-sensitive and choice-based, with occasional short teachings offered in a supportive, invitational way.

All sessions include replays, so you’re welcome to practice at your own pace if you can’t join live or would like to revisit a meditation. There’s no expectation to attend every week perfectly — you’re invited to return whenever it feels supportive.

This series is ideal for anyone who wants mindfulness to feel accessible, grounding, and doable — especially during times of stress, emotional intensity, or uncertainty. Whether you’re new to mindfulness or returning to practice, you’re welcome here.

This is not about managing emotions.
It’s about learning how to be with them — with steadiness and care.

Class is taught by Deb Phelps, a Meditation and Mindfulness Practitioner (and Certified Teacher) for over four decades.

Put on your fav Halloween inspired Yoga outfit and join us for a fun filled class of SCARY 😃Yoga poses.

This Yoga class is a sweet and gentle blend of Yoga Styles ending in a 10 to 15 min relaxing and restoring Yoga Nidra and designed for the ones among us with busy and active lifestyles especially if you have been feeling a little tense or pressed for time.

With a monthly rotating focus we usually start the class with some centering and breath work , holding poses for slightly longer periods of time, targeting the connective tissues of the body to help release deeply stored tension It is often experienced as deeply meditative, as it invites the practitioner to completely release and let go.
From there we will be moving slowly up with a gentle breath-based Vinyasa flow to build mind/ body strength and flexibility, challenging balance and concentration, and harnessing that energy to promote inner stillness and peace.
At the end of the class of about 45 min there is a choice to quietly leave after a short savasana or stay for a brief 10 to 15 min Yoga Nidra or restorative Yoga practice . Yoga NIDRA is the practice of yogic sleep , a guided meditation technique, which utilizes various practices of body, breath, mind, energy & spirit to draw individuals into deeper and subtler states of being where total relaxation and peace and profound healing becomes available. A nourishing and grounding practice, that does not require any extra preparation or knowledge, Nidra is the perfect way to round out your practice and return to your busy life peaceful, rejuvenated and restored.
This class is suitable for anybody basic fitness level and up, who does not have any contraindication to exercise or practice yoga. Throughout the class suggestions for modifications will be provided for you to meet your body where it is at in the present time.

This 10-minute practice offers very minimal guidance, allowing you to settle into quiet presence in a way that feels safe and natural for your nervous system. Gentle anchors are offered at the beginning, and then we rest mostly in silence.
There is nothing to achieve, fix, or figure out.
You are welcome to sit, lie down, keep your eyes open, or move gently as needed.
This practice is especially supportive if you feel overstimulated, fatigued, overwhelmed, or simply in need of quiet without effort.
All are welcome. No experience required.

2026 Update for Peaceful Mind Circle
Due to some shifts within the group — including schedules and availability — we’ve made a few small adjustments to how the Peaceful Mind Circle meets.
We now gather on the 1st and 3rd Fridays of each month as a shared practice and support space.
Each gathering begins with a 7-minute grounding meditation, followed by time to share, reflect, and receive support around:
Applying mindfulness and meditation in daily life
Navigating challenges with practice
Sharing supportive resources, ideas, or tools
Occasional mindful creativity experiences (announced in advance)
This is a relaxed, welcoming circle — not a class and not a commitment. Come when you can. Each gathering stands on its own.
