Help us celebrate our Board President Reverend Arn

Help us celebrate our Board President Reverend Arnold Townsend for the rest of May.

He is a leader and legend in Fillmore and SF who has served on the AAACC Board of Directors for almost a decade. His story includes fighting for racial equity in SF for 45+ years! In honor of his 80th birthday, Rev. desires to push AAACC to build a culture of giving that allows us to sustain and grow our work.

Join the Rev., the AAACC Board of Directors, and our community as we celebrate this milestone by making a donation to an org dear to his heart.

Repost @pleasureandjusticeforall Come join in the spirit of healing and restoration✨🙏🏾✨
Restorative Wednesdays is a month long self care & transformational health journey ✨YOU DESERVE REST & TO FEEL YOUR BEST!!!
During RESTORATIVE WEDNESDAYS you will get in touch with a deep relaxation to rejuvenate the body and the mind through non-sleep deep rest (NSDR) and yoga nidra.
Yoga Nidra is a ‘yogic sleep’ practice guided in savanna pose in order to bring the body and mind to the edge of sleep while remaining fully awake, and into a profound restorative state. Using verbal guidance to navigate the attention, you’ll experience various layers of your inner terrain while in a fully conscious dream-like state, creating the fertile conditions to plant your “Sankalpa,” the seeds for personal transformation.
The term non-sleep deep rest, coined by Stanford neuroscientist Andrew Huberman, refers to a waking state of deep relaxation that maintains awareness. Evidence suggests reaching this state through NSDR protocols such as yoga nidra can reset dopamine levels and provide other physical and mental health benefits — including better sleep and enhanced neuroplasticity.
As we travel on this inner journey together, the intention is for us to emerge more connected to ourselves so that we are able to leave feeling refreshed and deeply rested.
✨🧘🏽‍♀️RESTORATIVE WEDNESDAYS: Yin Yoga, Functional Movement, Breathwork, Meditation & Naps is held LIVE- IN PERSON @aaaculturecomplex 2nd floor in the Nia Room.
✨🕉 Join Afi Ayanna, Certified Holistic Wellness Coach and RYT 500 Yoga instructor while being supported and empowered to learn trauma-informed healing, nutrition and daily practices to facilitate mental , physical and spiritual well-being.

📝This healing series is created by Afi Ayanna for the African American Art and Culture Complex @aaaccsf and is made possible by funding through the SF Dream Keeper Initiative & AAACC Community Building Cohort.

✨Come heal individually and collectively while building community ✨🙏🏾✨
