Spring Open House: A Celebration of Body, Mind & Spirit

This past Sunday offered a gorgeous bit of warmth and sunshine here in St. Mary's County, Maryland, and so it was perfect timing for our annual Spring Open House. "It was such a beautiful day, and a great success," said Marin Goldstein, executive director of Joy Lane. "People seemed excited to explore themselves and to find those opportunites that exist right here in their own community."

The morning began with an hour of yoga, eased into a session of biofeedback, and ended with a wander through the beautiful woods that surrounds the center, and into the forest labyrinth. A social lunch followed, where about 15 people gathered to share a meal.

Later that afternoon there was a group past-life regression, and the day ended with an introduction to qigong.

"It was wonderful to see new faces, and to share time with a community of like minded folks," noted Carol Marcy, the Center's founder. "And I enjoyed quiet, peaceful time to reflect on life's journey from so many different perspectives."

Thanks to everyone who contributed, visited, shopped, chatted, wandered and learned. It was a great day of sharing and meeting. And we look forward to seeing you at future events!
