Join the Sam Fox School Office of Socially Engaged Practice for Mindful Movement & Sound Healing with Diana Parra Perez and the Sun Protection Outreach Teaching by Students (SPOTS).
Diana will lead two sessions from 6:00-6:45p and 7:00-7:45p. The session invites participants into a gentle, restorative space for reconnection and grounding through mindful movement and sound. We will begin with a slow, accessible movement practice inspired by restorative yoga, designed to release tension, support the body, and cultivate present-moment awareness. The session will then transition into an extended 15-minute restorative savasana, where participants are invited to rest deeply while being immersed in the sounds of crystal singing bowls, gongs, and chimes. These sound vibrations support relaxation of the nervous system, helping to create a sense of calm, openness, and integration.
SPOTS team members will be on-site from 6:00-7:45p to share their knowledge about the importance of sun safety and skin cancer prevention to people of all skin types. Medical students and nurses from both St. Louis University and Washington University will be at the event to talk about sun-safe habits, the importance of skin self-exams and to answer your skin-health questions!
Offered in the context of the Everything Under the Sun community site, this experience is an invitation to pause, listen, and reconnect, within ourselves and in relation to the spaces we inhabit. Everyone is welcome to participate, no experience required. This event is free and open to all. Registration encouraged.
