WHAT IS YOGA NIDRA? Yoga Nidra Meditation is a guided meditation practice designed to help bring the body and mind to a deeply restful state. This practice is done is a reclined position. Yoga Nidra Meditation, also known as Yogic Sleep, can lead us into a state between wakefulness and sleep.

Please give as you are able. 🙏🏼 The 541 Eater and Exchange is an amazing non-profit organization which operates a community cafe on Barton Street. This cafe offers affordable food options and supports those in need through its pay-it-forward model.

It’s been… a year 😓 We unfortunately need to close tomorrow as our walk-in fridge has broken down and we’ll need to find a new one. We may need to close Saturday as well but we’ll keep you updated on here!

A new walk-in fridge costs $15,000, which is a big stretch for us right now. Between rising food costs and the day-to-day challenges of running the cafe, it’s a tough hit. If you’re able to contribute to a new fridge for us, we’d really appreciate it. It’ll help us keep the doors open and keep serving our community. Donations can be made online here: https://www.fivefortyone.ca/donate

Each year, September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This day honours the children who never returned home and Survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process. 🪶

Orange Shirt Day is a commemorative day led by Indigenous communities to raise awareness about the intergenerational impacts of residential schools on children, families, and communities. It honours Indigenous children who were lost in the residential school system.
The orange shirt symbolizes the loss of culture, freedom, and self-esteem that many Indigenous children experienced. This day reminds us that “Every Child Matters”.
