Potluck:

Please bring a dish to share!

Our format is to go around and have each person introduce their food, so that we can learn about how others make Wise Traditions foods, and this allows anyone with allergies or food restrictions to ask questions about ingredients. We then serve ourselves and and enjoy great food and great conversation!

Presentation:

I Chuan & Neigong for Balance, Mobility & Flexibility

by Barclay Powers

Barclay will demonstrate stance and movements to increase mobility, balance and joint flexibility with 20-30 minutes of simple yet powerful movements done every other day.

He will discuss how you can increase the function and efficacy of your bioelectrical system using breathing, skeletal alignment, posture and mindfulness. These training methods can be tailored to all age groups and ability levels. These ancient Chinese medical exercises are based on opening the energy meridians of the body, which result in increased health, energy and mental acuity. The movements loosen and relax tight painful areas by softening and lengthening the connective tissue, targeting the fascia, tendons and ligaments for increased mobility, agility and overall wellbeing.

What to bring to the potluck?

Wise Traditions foods are based on traditional, whole foods, that would be recognizable by our ancestors from around the world. A simple homemade meal made from scratch using natural fats is always a great contribution. We appreciate foods from a variety of categories, including: meats, vegetables, bone broth, fermented foods, fruit, natural sweeteners, properly prepared grains, raw dairy, nuts, seeds, legumes, salt, herbs, spices and lots of butter!

Children & guests are welcome.
