  Are you, your staff and your clients feeling a little stress these days?

  Westchester Library System is bringing a series of Breath-Body-Mind™ workshops to Westchester County this spring.  Breath-Body-Mind (BBM) is a straight-forward, evidence-based program for gentle breath, movement, and relaxation exercises to relieve stress, improve mood, mental focus, empathy, and performance. Program originators and internationally acclaimed experts, Dr. Richard Brown and Dr. Patricia Gerbarg will lead this series for County nonprofits.

  These breathing and movement exercises help build the skills of resilience and are relevant to the needs of adults, children and families. Recognizing that this training is more important than ever as many struggle with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the training has been restructured from an experiential classroom series to a virtual educational experience with the use of ZOOM Technology.

  We are offering an Introductory Workshop (May 29 & 30) and a Level 1 Teacher Training (June 19-20 and July 10-12), as well as other opportunities to experience the potential of these simple yet powerfully effective practices.

  With the completion of Level-1 Teacher Training participants will acquire the fundamental skills to teach core BBM practices to individuals, assist in facilitating Introductory BBM workshops to larger groups, and help develop programs in their communities and workplaces.

  League of Women Voters Announces Candidates Forums

  WHITE PLAINS, NY—The League of Women Voters of Westchester in conjunction with the

  League of Women Voters of the Rivertowns, and the League of Women Voters of White Plains will sponsor Candidates Forums for candidates running in the June 2020 primaries for the New York Congressional District 17 seat in the U.S. House of Representatives.

  A Republican Candidates Forum will be held in White Plains on Tuesday June 2, 2020. A Democratic Candidates Forum in White Plains is scheduled for Monday June 8, 2020. Both Forums will be held at the White Plains Church Street Elementary School, 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

  A Democratic primary Candidates Forum will be held in Ossining, NY on Tuesday June 9, at the Ossining Public Library, 7:00 p.m. to 9 p.m.

  Candidates whose names appear on the official New York State Democratic or Republican primary election ballot will be invited to participate in their respective party’s Candidates Forum. In accordance with FEC rules, a Forum will be held only if there are two or more candidates on the primary ballot.

  The New York 17th Congressional District covers parts of central and northwestern Westchester county, and all of Rockland county. Nita Lowey, who is retiring at the end of her term, currently represents the district. Early voting in primaries is from Saturday June 13 through Sunday June 21.

  Primary Election Day is Tuesday June 23.

  White Plains LWV president and Westchester LWV executive committee member, Stephen Cohen, said, “the League’s Candidates Forums are an important opportunity for the residents of the 17th Congressional District to hear from all the candidates in the primaries on important issues in a calm, respectful, non-partisan environment that encourages civil discourse”.

  The League of Women Voters takes no position on candidates for public office or on political parties. The League works to encourage the informed and active participation of citizens in government, works to increase understanding of major policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.
