Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D.
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction
Based on his renowned program of stress reduction at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of numerous books including his latest, Coming to Your Senses, engages us in sitting meditation, body scanning, and hatha yoga, as well as mindfulness of communication and other activities of everyday life. This is a time to renew and recharge, to explore our lives at a deeper level, and learn tools for a lifetime of well-being.

Annette
The Free Heart
Everyone yearns to live a life from the Free Heart. We all have an intuitive sense of what that might be, and yet too often feel that we are missing the mark. Together we explore real possibilities, so that our yearning can translate itself more and more into a living reality. In a nurturing setting we use meditative inquiry, movement, and creative expression to leap into and from the depth of our Heart. Annette's background includes the nondual meditation traditions of India and Tibet, as well as modern Western integrative modalities. She also facilitates Women's Circles for the recognition and celebration of Spirit in its feminine embodiment.

Naushon Kabat-Zinn
Power Vinyasa Yoga
This vigorous workshop for people at all levels of ability in yoga is a wonderful way to develop strength, serenity, flexibility, and balance. A dynamic blend of sweat and spirituality, this energizing and cleansing practice emphasizes the linking of movement with breath, cultivating our ability to awaken to the present moment.

David Wegman
Reimaging the Image
This workshop focuses on facilitating artistic expression through the exploration of a variety of mediums—everything from printmaking and decoupage to seriography and moldmaking. David Wegman's techniques use everyday materials from the world around us as elements for original, inspired artwork. Wegman lives on his largest sculpture: a schooner that he himself built 25 years ago on the island of St. John. When not teaching, David sails around the world gathering creative inspiration.

Stephan Rechtschaffen, M.D.
Island Time: Living Fully in This Moment
In this workshop physician and cofounder of Omega Stephan Rechtschaffen teaches holistic approaches to time, longevity, stress reduction, and well-being. Through visualization techniques, mindfulness practices, and awareness exercises, the author of Timeshifting: Creating More Time to Enjoy Your Life and coauthor of Vitality and Wellness, shows us how to slow down and come into the authentic and natural rhythms that are the result of living fully in the present moment.

Steven Michael Pague
Exploring the Natural Mysteries of Our World
Steven Michael Pague combines his years of experience as codirector and host of Omega's Maho Bay program—gathering people with music, dance, chant, and prayer—with his movement and awareness skills to help us tap into the sacred heart of the mysteries within and around us. We begin our week in soft, harmonic sound to thank the natural world, then explore an eclectic blend of nature awareness, tracking, fire-making, thanksgiving, peace-making, personal development, and artistic expression.
