SUMMARY:Reflections Memoirs
DESCRIPTION:One of our most popular offerings\, Silver Spring Village now boasts three active memoir writing groups—and they continue to fill quickly. Why the enthusiasm? \nThese small\, welcoming groups offer a chance to reflect\, write\, and share life stories in a supportive\, nonjudgmental setting. Participants discover the pleasure of putting memories on paper\, the satisfaction of being truly heard\, and the unexpected connections that emerge when stories are shared. No prior writing experience is needed—just curiosity about your own life and an interest in listening to others. \nIf you’ve ever thought\, “Someday I should write this down\,” this may be the perfect place to begin. \nFor further members-only details or to register\, log into your member account and visit the Calendar page. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Mindfulness
DESCRIPTION:Mindfulness is the ability to be consciously aware of the present moment in a way that enables an individual to choose actions that cultivate inner calm and emotional balance.  In our sessions of guided meditation you will learn to be more aware of your thoughts\, emotions\, and environment in a nonjudgmental way by staying in the present.\n\nThe sessions will be held at the home of a member at 4:30\, usually on the last Tuesday of each month .  The group will be limited in size so it will be important to register beforehand.\nFor further members-only details or to register\, log into your member account and visit the Calendar page. \n
