Perimenopause is a confusing and chaotic time in a woman's life. This talk will touch on women's health disparities, hormone health, what is happening to the physiology, and how hormones affect our whole body, and strategies to optimize health holistically during the transition and into menopause. It is relevant for all women ages 30 and beyond.

Thursdays 6:00 - 7:00 pm
In-person and via Zoom
Calm Abiding Meditation
This meditation is common to many traditions of Buddhism. In this practice, we rest our attention on a simple meditative support, such as the breath. Instead of following thoughts and emotions as we usually do, we release them and maintain our connection to the support.

“From this practice, we can experience a stable and calm mind. We learn to maintain and return to a sense of stillness, no matter what our outer circumstances. The mind is relaxed, alert and aware. The results of this practice are serenity, freedom in the face of circumstances, and ultimately Buddhahood.”

From Meditation for Beginners, by Bokar Rinpoche.

There's no better place to understand Southern Oregon's railroad history than at the Medford Railroad Park and no one better to tell tales about railroad logging than Jerry Hellinga. In the early 1900s the railroad was the backbone of the logging industry, carrying millions of board feet from the dense forests of the Upper Rogue to the Medford mills.

This program is co-sponsored by the Eagle Point Historical Society and the Eagle Point Branch of Jackson County Library Services thanks in part to an Oregon Heritage grant to the Gold Hill Historical Society. The Eagle Point Branch of JCLS is located at 239 West Main Street in Eagle Point and is open daily except Sundays. For more information contact Shari Lawson 541-261-7756 shari_l@yahoo.com
