Details of all activities this week are in the calendar – on the righthand side of this web page (or elsewhere on mobile devices). And the doors are always open if you just want to drop-in to look at the art in the living room, make a cuppa, read a newspaper, browse the honesty library or use the children’s playroom. For more information about three particular activities, read on …
A new activity starting this week is Mudras Yoga … Used for many years in the practise of yoga, Mudras are yoga positions for the hands and fingers. Mudra techniques can help people recharge their personal energy, and can provide calm from the frustrations and stresses of everyday life and can be practised by people of all ages and from all backgrounds, and the techniques can be practised anytime and anywhere. The first of eight sessions is on Saturday 23 January, 10am-11am. Spaces on the course are limited. Please book early to avoid disappointment. For further information or to book sessions contact Imtiaz Hasan on 0788 425 3498 or email imtiazhasan@msm.com. For further inspiration visit www.imtiazhasan.wix.com/holisticity
There are major planning developments for new housing across the borough. On The Mill’s doorstep is a big development planned for South Grove – and exhibitions about this at The Mill before Christmas were very well attended. The developers are holding another open consultation event at The Mill on Thursday 21 January, 5pm-8pm, and will also be at the Central Library (top of the High Street) on Saturday 23 January, 10am-3pm.
If you are unable to attend one of the public exhibitions, go to www.southgrove.co.uk to see all consultation documents and comment online.
