Moving Through - Counselling and Wellness

08/31/2025

Be Moved is about fitness, yes - but it's also about community. We take the time to greet one another, we share kudos and good news, and we let ourselves be moved by the emotions in the music. Every so often, we enjoy a potluck meal together after class! All are welcome.

Mondays 5-6 pm at The Mahone Bay Centre.

Let yourself Be Moved!

We begin again on Monday, September 8, 5-6 pm at The Mahone Bay Centre.

Be Moved is a mindful movement class. Explore your unique range of movement with both patterned steps and playful personal expression. Building safe movement practice with layers and options, we will stimulate brain/body connections with interesting moves. Be Moved is a gentle, playful class to help you reconnect with yourself and others as we share the dance floor in rhythmic exploration. You’ll be challenged, you’ll find flow, and you’ll leave feeling energized and connected. Adaptable for all levels of fitness. Every Body is welcome on my dance floor.

You get to choose. Sometimes an hour is just right. And some days, it's nice to have a longer time together.

There's no rush in somatic work, and more time and space can support the integration of new patterns in the nervous system.

Fiona Leckenby is a gifted somatic practitioner. I always appreciate her written reflections on what we are truly aiming for in these practices, in this journey of understanding our own nervous system. Read her piece to better understand why 'getting calm' isn't the goal. You can subscribe to her Substack for other helpful reflections on these ideas.

What if trying to be calm all the time isn't adaptive?

Did you know that you can opt for a Walk and Talk session outdoors? The natural world offers us wonderful support as we focus on emotional wellness.

We might walk on the trail, or sit to bring more focus to the discussion, or use the open spaces in a variety of ways.

Curious? Just ask!

We can choose to be with music that meets and supports our emotions.

What a lovely clip from 40 years ago!

Our FREE Restore Postpartum Rehab Program is currently accepting applicants for a Feb 21 - March 28 program, running Friday mornings at 9:00am at the Royal Canadian Legion in Chester Basin, in partnership with Our Health Centre.

Our bodies undergo enormous change during pregnancy and postpartum. Many changes that can turn into larger challenges down the road (e.g. weight gain, incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, deconditioning, pain, diastasis recti, depression and anxiety) can improve significantly via regular exercise. Our program offers a considerable dose of the types of exercise we know benefit mamas most: pelvic floor and core muscle training, strengthening exercise, and high intensity interval training. It also equips participants with the knowledge and skills they need to exercise at home or at other fitness classes in ways that will benefit their physical and mental health (and the physical and mental health of their children) and enable them to recover from pregnancy and birth-related health challenges.

Email programs@ourhealthcentre.ca for more info or to register. Big thank you to Our Health Centre Foundation for their support and enthusiasm for this unique program.
