At The Urban Well at Saint James, local practitioners will give insights into Indian spiritual traditions and practices with a panel discussion and Q&A led by Father David Peck, at 10 a.m., April 22, 2023, at Saint James Episcopal Church. Doors open at 9:30 a.m.

The four-hour experience includes presentations and performances of traditional Indian dance and music. The Sound of the Sitar, with John Protopapas, explores the healing forces of music as meditation and prayer, connecting vibration to spirit and experiencing chanting. Dance and Movement, with Rasmita Amin and dance students of Natyashala Dance Studio, will promote understanding of the connection between classical yoga poses and dance movements. Caring for Our Bodies, with Debra Dower, will focus on finding more light and energy in our bodies through mindful breath, chair yoga and anti-inflammatory spices and foods.

Participants may enjoy traditional Indian chai and foods throughout the experience, which will be provided by the presenters and Norbu restaurant.
