HeArt Space Grows Wings

February sees HeArt Space expanding into homes and studios in Muizenberg Village – a truly community driven project – as the community centre becomes an art gallery.

Here is an outline of events taking place this month and where – we hope to have you join us – and thank each and every one of you who have shared your lovely energy energy with us thus far!

MANIFESTING MONDAYS 18H00-20H00 | 18 Royal Rd Muizenberg ~ DONATION BASIS

Are you wanting to learn fun and effective conscious creations techniques?

Meet like-hearted individuals? Enjoy guided meditations and soulful music?

Join us every Monday for some serious manifesting magic!

1on1 REIKI TREATMENTS ~ DONATION BASIS

During a 1 hour Reiki treatment we set our intentions by activating the feeling place of what we are wanting before enjoying a full body Reiki treatment in a safe and nurturing environment. The recommended number of treatments is 4-6 over a two month period, although, if you wish, you can have up to one treatment per week with great results.

For more information and bookings contact Shireen 072 130 2208

HATHA YOGA ON MUIZENBERG BEACH | Wednesdays 7-8:30am ~DONATION BASIS

The aim of this yoga is to provide gentle and personal assistance for beginners and intermediate students.

In ancient times ‘gurus’ use to facilitate one on one training with students – I try and assimilate this process ( not being a ‘guru’, but by having small classes ) focusing on holistic growth.

The power of yoga has been known for thousands of years to improve flexibility, muscle tone, balance, and endurance.

Yoga also works directly on the energy body increasing subtle / deeper awareness of self / soul. This is best done in a gentle, relaxed way – using meditation techniques and wisdom teachings from various sources.

“When we create the feelings of what we choose to experience in our lives – everything from conscious choices, of the perfect relationship, abundance in our lives, healing in our bodies and the bodies of our loved ones – these feelings are creating the energetic patterns that our reality mirrors”

- Gregg Braden, scientist, visionary, scholar

Bring along a plate of something vegetarian to share, something brief to share around the theme (a quote, a visualization, a demonstration, an artwork – be creative) and your beautiful self – you are also welcome to invite your friends.

Breath Water Sound | Lisa Martin | blissfulbeyond@gmail.com

Collage Mural Project | Claire Homewood communitreemuizenberg@gmail.com

Breath Water Sound is a free workshop that teaches simple yet powerful breathing, sound and meditation techniques which eliminate stress from the system so that the mind gains the clarity to solve problems. Most importantly, the course reminds communities of the power each individual has within, to make a difference and to be the change that they wish to see.

The Mural Project is a fun and interactive mural project involving the community in the process and conception of ideas. The outcome is not only a beautiful, vibrant piece of mural art but a lasting sense of community and growth in participants as individuals.

Combined with Community participation, here is an opportunity to discover the essence of community spirit and allow it to animate our interactions within our community.

Mural Magic and the Power of Creativity!

If there was a Mural in Muizenberg what story would it tell?

What would it look like and what would it feel like?

A Mural can be much more than just picture on a wall, a mural could be an end result of an incredibly creative and community building adventure.

A Mural is something that represents a community and uses the power of creativity to bring people together.

Who is part of our community?

How can we embrace our community in all it’s diversity?

Creative Process Workshops will run alongside Art of Livings’ Breath Water Sound Program

The Creative Process Workshop encourages community participation.

A creative process could be anything that helps us begin to feel what the mural will represent and express. These workshop sessions will follow on and interlink and expand the themes discussed from the Breath Water Sound. The Community envision and brainstorm ideas for the final piece and experiment with methods of mural implementation (for example Stenciling.)

Community members are invited to submit ideas and facilitate workshops/ or host experiences towards the creative process.

It could be a collage session, a walk in the mountain, a theatre workshop, a storytelling gathering, a musical sound journey, an out -reach program, ANYTHING!

The creative results (photographs/ collages/ drawings/ found objects/) can then be displayed the Creative Process Wall for everyone to see.

The Mural Process wall is a dedicated wall within the Heart Space in Muizenberg where all the creative outcomes of each creative process will be gathered and displayed.

The Mural facilitators will host regular community gatherings where participants can share and express their experiences with each other as well as offer the space for anyone to share those creative results that cannot be displayed on the wall, for example, a poem, song, dance, play, music…)

This Sharing space will also allow for the Artists to continue reviewing the themes and questions that have been raised by the community during breath water sound and the creative process workshops.
