Hello All,
| We are trying out a new format here. Instead of a (very) long email listing all of our amazing events, we've put it into your hands to decide how much you want to read and when you want to read it.
You'll find a few places to click on links to read all of what's in store for July. The weekly newsletter will contain the current week's events, and for more you can click and read.
Let us know how you like it. It's a work in progress. We know these emails are long as we have so many events. We don't want you to miss out on anything! But we don't want to overwhelm you either. We think this is a good solution. Send feedback if you'd like.
I'd like to highlight a very special event this Saturday. Omega's Brett Bevell is coming to teach his Magical Awakening class in a one-day workshop (June 26, 12 p.m. - 5 p.m.). Those of you who have met Brett in one of his many visits know him as the most generous and down-to-earth of teachers. His style is powerful yet whimsical and, yes, magical!
If you have the time this Saturday and you want to learn an entirely new and original healing modality, spend the day with Brett. He opens new doors to access the Universe and all the energies it holds. Space is limited. Give us a call as soon as you can!
Ayurvedic Classes:
Dr. David
Frawley, one of our great teachers of Ayurveda, says that it is one of the most remarkable holistic medical systems
in the world, covering all aspects of health and well-being including
methods of diet, herbs, exercise, life-style, yoga and
meditation.
YES! This is why I love it so much. In July you can take my five-week Ayurvedic program, (July 6 - August 3) Perfect Health. And you can also take Ayurvedic Cooking Class on July 11. Ayurveda changed my life so profoundly that I love sharing it with you! Space for both courses is limited, so please call soon to sign up.
And an update on our Community Investor Program:
Customers have made significant investments and donations and I'm so excited about all the possibilities. Next week I'll send more details on our plans, but for now I just wanted to thank everyone and to let you know that this is an ongoing program. We are still seeking your support in order to expand our programs, our inventory, and our outreach into the community.
You can support the store in several ways including shopping here! It's that simple! Buying your books and gifts from us is one of the best ways to support and sustain breathe books. Remember us for your book club books, summer reading, your kid's required summer reading, and more. If we don't have a book in stock we are happy to order it for you and we can also send books directly to you.
Other ways people are supporting the store are through donations, gift card purchases, and investments. Give us a call or email and we'll be happy to send you some more information.
Thank you all!!
Love,
Susan

Wednesday, June 23, 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. Deep
Journaling with Christine Stewart
Christine Stewart  | In a quiet space, participants will respond to
questions, prompts, images, objects, or music through writing. The goal is to
pause to appreciate all that we've accomplished and consciously choose to
deepen the experience of the weekend ahead. We write in silence, in the same
way a group gathers to sit in meditation together. In this way, everyone will
leave more centered and ready to enjoy the coming weekend. We will always end
with a gratitude list. (This class may be extended for several weeks if
participants are interested).
Christine Stewart is program director for arts in education, literary
arts, and children's events with the Maryland State Arts Council, and director
of Maryland's Poetry Out Loud program. A former artist-in-residence with
Creative Alliance in Baltimore, Ms. Stewart is the founding director of the
successful Write Here, Write Now workshops and has taught at Carver Center for
Arts & Technology, the Odyssey Program at Johns Hopkins, and the Baltimore
Museum of Art. Some of her publications include Poetry, Ploughshares,
Blackbird, and The Cortland Review. Cost: $20
|
Thursdays, June 24, 6:30 p.m. - 7:45 p.m. Yoga
Nidra with Dr. Gina Sager
Yoga nidra means "yogic sleep", but is actually a
state of heightened wakefulness, of great potentiality and greater
consciousness. The deep physical relaxation induced by yoga nidra allows the
release of energy blocks that may be experienced as muscle tension and subtle
emotional blocks which are a result of unprocessed, suppressed or unwelcome
emotions and experienceYoga Nidra
 | . Reset the body's innate energy balance, restore inner
harmony and good health. You will be led to a state of deep physical
relaxation, followed by guided imagery designed to help release energy blocks.
Yoga nidra offers deep physical, emotional, mental, physiologic and metabolic
rest -- the perfect antidote for the way we live today! Cost: $20 |
Special Event with Omega's Brett Bevell
Learn the new energy modality, Magical Awakening
Saturday, June 26, 12 p.m. - 5 p.m. Magical
Awakening Workshop with Brett Bevell
Brett Bevell  | Magical Awakening is one of the most powerful
and yet playful forms of Divine energy healing available on the planet.
Practitioners who learn the first level of this eight level system gain skills
far beyond what even most Reiki Masters can do, running energy healings on
large groups of people simultaneously and at a distance. Based on an ancient
concept in Celtic Shamanism called the Three Cauldrons, or primary energy
wheels, the first level of Magical Awakening awakens these three energetic
wheels within our own energy system, allowing us to harness energy from them to
heal ourselves and others.
In this first level training you will receive an empowerment to activate all
three of these energy cauldrons, and learn how to use this Divine healing
magical force on yourself, in your life, and for healing others and the planet.
This energy is specifically designed to realign human beings with the natural
world, and release the illusion of being separate from the Divine intelligence
that is the root of all life. This spiritual healing system can work on both
physical, emotional and spiritual dis-ease, by awakening us back into knowing
our place of unity with the Divine and with all life that springs forth from
the Divine, including mythological aspects of Divine intelligence where often
our greatest power resides. Brett Bevell is a Reiki Master and author of
the recently released book Reiki for Spiritual Healing as well as The
Reiki Magic Guide To Self Attunement. Brett has taught workshops at Omega
Institute of Holistic Studies in Rhinebeck, NY and at Alex Grey's Chapel of The
Sacred Mirrors in Manhattan.
