Special Seated Pose Extended Gong Bath
Dec 7 @ 7:00 pm

If you have attended prior gong baths, it is likely you laid down. In a seated pose, either on a floor cushion or in a chair, you have the special opportunity to experience the gong bath in a powerfully balanced and symmetrical posture. This position is reflected both in the spiritual tradition and the science of sacred form. The seated pose delivers a deepening and releasing of energies to open up to more healing, balancing and harmony.

This gong bath is 90 minutes long and gives you the opportunity to deepen your experience. Some floor cushions are available, but you may want to bring your own. Following the gong bath, there will be time for discussion.

Register online, www.infinityfoundation.org or call 847-831-8828. Cost: $40.00

Location Infinity Foundation, 1280 Old Skokie Road, Highland Park 60035

GENE SISKEL FILM CENTER PREMIERES MUSHROOM DOCUMENTARY FANTASTIC FUNGI. Tickets to each screening–unless stated otherwise—are From Friday, October 18 through Thursday, October 24. $12/general admission, $7/students, $6/Film Center members. Director Louie Schwartzberg appears for Q&A opening weekend. This revealing and marvelously mind-boggling documentary explores the hidden kingdom of mushrooms, the unique fruit of mycelium, an all-pervasive fungal network that not only lives beneath our feet but subversively dominates the earth. The Fifties rockabilly hit “There Was a Fungus Among Us” unwittingly proclaimed the fact: mycelium is everywhere, whether seen or unseen. Experts including groundbreaking scientist/mycologist Paul Stamets and authors Michael Pollan, Eugenia Bone, and Andrew Weil reveal the ways in which mushrooms harbor a vast and barely explored potential for healing, renewing the environment, providing sustenance, and altering consciousness, but only if mankind is savvy enough to tap their enormous power. Awe-inspiring time-lapse macro cinematography by director Schwartzberg (WINGS OF LIFE) brings mushrooms and their underworld networks to astonishing vibrant life for a don’t-miss experience. FANTASTIC FUNGI, 2018, Louie Schwartzberg, USA, 81 min., narrated by Brie Larson, DCP digital. Director Louie Schwartzberg is scheduled to appear for audience discussion on Friday (8 pm only; tentative) and Saturday. Location: Gene Siskel Film Center of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, located at 164 N. State St., Chicago, IL 60601. Website: http://www.siskelfilmcenter.org/fantastic-fungi
