Shanthi Project

This beautiful courtyard will soon be full of our neighbors, supporters, partners, and friends... weather permitting, of course! On Thursday, we're hosting our very first open house at Connexions Gallery, where we’ve operated our community-based programming since May 1st. And you're invited!

This Shanthi After Hours will feature:
🍕 Complimentary food and beverages
🎨 The opportunity to preview Connexions’ beautiful new exhibit, titled Memento Mori II
🎟️ A raffle in support of our programming
💙 Great company, as always!

Visit ShanthiProject.org/SAH if you want to learn more. We'll see you soon!

Don't forget to register for our upcoming community programming! We have a lot planned this month — including a new workshop on Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) in just a couple days.

EFT, also called "tapping," is a powerful mind-body practice that combines focused awareness with gentle tapping on acupressure points. Funds from this workshop, and all of our community programming, directly support Shanthi Project's mindfulness education for children in Lehigh Valley schools!

📍 These programs and events will all be hosted at Connexions Gallery, our shared Easton hub where we've operated since the spring. (Take a peek at the gallery this Thursday at our Shanthi After Hours joint open house!)

Join us this September and October for lots of new community programming! Behind the scenes, we've been busy planning an exciting lineup of workshops, programs, and events, featuring mindful movement, art, and meditation.

Most programs will be hosted at our Easton hub (shared with Connexions Gallery) — which we're opening up to the public at our next Shanthi After Hours in October! More details to come.

Until then, you can explore this list of our upcoming offerings, then head to ShanthiProject.org/events to register. And remember, all funds from our community programming directly support the life-changing mindfulness education we bring to classrooms across the Lehigh Valley!

🗣️ It's your last chance to register for Wind Down through Yoga & Mindfulness! We're closing out the series with our final FREE workshop on Monday, October 5th.

Our Wind Down workshops are designed for children aged 8+ who have been diagnosed with autism, along with a family member or guardian. Over the course of an hour, our experienced instructor will guide participants through a breathing warm-up, a structured yoga routine, and a guided meditation — all to focus on cultivating presence, finding calm, and regulating emotions.

Learn more and register for free at ShanthiProject.org/events.

Our tabling setup at last weekend's Live Well Be Well event! It was a joy bringing mindfulness to community members of all ages. With the help of our breathing ball and calming glitter jar, we demonstrated how practicing mindfulness can be simple and straightforward.

We're grateful to all those who stopped by our table — like the young girl who returned in the afternoon to thank us for teaching her some mindful breaths! Big thanks to Paxinosa School for having us, too.

You're invited to Shanthi After Hours on October 8th!

In partnership with Connexions Gallery, Shanthi Project is excited to host our first open house at our shared space in downtown Easton. While many know us for our work in local schools, this location—where we've operated since May 1st—serves as our hub for community-based mindfulness workshops. We look forward to welcoming neighbors, supporters, educators, and friends to explore the space and learn how we're expanding our impact across the Lehigh Valley.

At this installment of Shanthi After Hours, our free happy hour series, you can enjoy food and beverages + participate in a raffle in support of our mission. You'll also be able to explore the beautiful artwork housed at Connexions, which will be open throughout the evening. Visit ShanthiProject.org/SAH for more information.

The full moon invites reflection and growth — so we're harnessing its power and inspiration during our Full Moon Week series. Next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, we'll gather and grow together, alongside the waxing moon. All mindfulness sessions are unique (see more info below) and will be held at our hub in downtown Easton. Come for one or all three!

You can find details and links to register by visiting our website, ShanthiProject.org/events. And remember, all funds raised support our in-class mindfulness education programs in Easton and Bethlehem!
