TUE May 23, 7pm Ashland History Stories of Triumph & Tragedy, Humor & Ghosts by Peter Finke
After thousands of hours of rummaging through old newspapers, internet websites and aging brains, Peter has discovered hundreds of Ashland history stories. Among the stories you will hear this evening: Humor from a 1929 Ashland High School newspaper. How did Ashland peaches get voted best in the country in 1893? Learn about one woman who did more than the Oregon Shakespeare Festival to keep Ashland restaurants and motels busy in the 1940s and 1950s. Meet one of the ghosts of Ashland- by name! Peter Finkle is the author of the premiere blog and website about Ashland: WalkAshland.com. He is a regular contributor to the online Ashland.News, Ashland Living Magazine, and other publications, and also leads Ashland history and art walking tours... READ MORE

TUE May 30, 7pm The Lost Language of The Feminine by Suzanne Mathis McQueen
Based on her book, “4 Seasons in 4 Weeks”, Suzanne will take attendees on a surprisingly simple, non-technical journey thru the monthly hormonal landscape, revealing an approximate 28-day female body clock. A remarkable navigational system within, this logical and holistic reproductive blueprint can be tapped into throughout a woman’s lifetime for optimal decision-making in health, business, and love—even beyond menopause.
During the presentation, we’ll touch on the colonization of the Feminine culture, politics of the womb, sacred geometry, the four phases of the monthly body clock, why females must align with this powerful rhythm within, and the global importance of balancing the Masculine with the Divine Feminine...

TUE June 6, 7pm The Power of Fasting for Mental, Physical, and Spiritual Health by Dr. Michael Hummel
Fasting is the intentional act of abstaining from eating and sometimes drinking. While fasting has become popular in recent years as a health-promoting lifestyle choice, it is a practice with millennia of history, deeply rooted in many spiritual traditions. Our ancestors have been fasting for thousands of years and modern research is just starting to reveal its power. In this presentation, Dr. Michael Hummel will review the current research behind the many types of fasting and fast-mimicking diets (Ketogenic, caloric restriction, etc.). He will also explore the profound effects fasting can have on our health and many aspects of our being... READ MORE

TUE June 13, 7pm Hanna Somatic Education and the Myth of Aging by Victor Novick
Hanna Somatic Education is a system of what we might call directed self-healing. The work includes hands-on sessions and patterns of exercise. In both of these practices, the emphasis is on the inner experience of the person and their awareness of the proprioceptive sense. The primary focus is on alleviating conditions in the body caused by chronically contracted muscles. Once these become habitual they are no longer within the realm of the person’s control. They can neither be relaxed nor asked to participate in movement as that can create serious problems in the body... READ MORE

WED May 24, 10:15am-11:30am Restoration Tai Chi with Victor Novick (Weekly)
This class is based on the slow, gentle, and graceful movements of Tai Chi and Chi Gong. The style is called Lineage Tai Chi as taught here in Ashland for many years by Michael Vasquez. The practice is designed to integrate and harmonize muscle systems, restoring as much as possible the basic human design. In this design, individual muscles work with others in a system of movement patterns, and such systems combine with others so that the whole body becomes a unified movement complex. The greater the harmonizing and integrating the greater the flow of life-enhancing Chi energy through the body. Cost: $10/class sliding scale MORE
