Weekly Brief

Mindful Movements in Your Everyday Life: A Comprehensive Workshop to Enhance the Physical Well-being of Women of All Ages & Stages
TONIGHT, Tuesday, Februrary 6th, 8:00pm, Rinat Social Hall
The Teaneck Yoetzet Halacha Initiative and Rinat Yisrael’s Nerot are pleased to invite the women of our community to come join
Deena Elias, PT, DPT
Joyce Bendavid, OT, Feldenkrais Practitioner and
Shoshana Samuels, Yoetzet Halacha
in a workshop built to provide women with a tangible understanding of common physical and anatomical causes of pain and injury, and to educate on ways to promote physical well-being through mindful movements, while preventing pain. We will look at various stages of a woman’s life, including emerging adulthood,
pregnancy and post-partum, working adults and mothers, as well as post menopause and continued free movements in older adults, to examine the physical challenges associated with each stage. Participants will take home practical tips to improve various day-to-day activities from lifting packages to carrying a purse, from working out at the gym to working at your desk, and from texting to typing, all in a more mindful way. Small changes in these routine activities can make a big difference in our physical well-being and lives!
