Explore the five koshas through-
ASANA
MEDITATION
PRANAYAMA
Join Hannah in exploring the koshas through asana, meditation, and pranayama in a 5 week series.
In yoga, we are said to be composed of five layers, sheaths, or bodies, also known as kosha. Like Russian dolls, each metaphorical “body” is contained within the next: annamaya kosha—the physical body; pranamaya kosha—the breath or life-force body; manomaya kosha—the mental body; vijanamaya kosha—the wisdom body; and anandamaya kosha—the bliss body. As a metaphor, the koshas help describe what it feels like to do yoga from the inside—the process of aligning what in contemporary language we often call “mind, body, and spirit”.
*Room will be lit with minimal lighting to help students go deep within their yoga practice.*

We will open this workshop with a discussion about the practice of Yoga Nidra, which translates to “the yoga of sleep”. Yoga Nidra, as a science, has been extensively studied and has been successfully used to help people overcome addiction, create physical relaxation, reduce stress, and increase the body’s capacity to heal. After the discussion, we will engage in a brief restorative yoga sequence and then practice Yoga Nidra so you can experience these powerful effects for yourself!

Scary Verse: Poems on Living with What Frightens Us
2016-10-29 14:00 - 15:00 | Hawaii State Library, 478 S King St, Honolulu, HI, 96813, United States
Eric Paul Shaffer invites you to join him in celebrating the season of Hallowe’en with poems about the ideas and events that really scare us. He will read poems classic and contemporary on subjects natural and supernatural, familiar and far-fetched. The work will focus mostly on the elements of everyday life that leave us a little frightened, but with a little insight, too.
Eric Paul Shaffer is author of six books of poetry: A Million-Dollar Bill was published in August of this year, and his earlier volumes are Lāhaina Noon; Portable Planet; Living at the Monastery, Working in the Kitchen; RattleSnake Rider; and Kindling: Poems from Two Poets (with James Taylor III). Nearly 450 of his poems have been published in reviews, journal, and magazines throughout the United States and the world. He received Hawai‘i’s 2002 Elliot Cades Award for Literature, a 2006 Ka Palapala Po‘okela Book Award for Lāhaina Noon, and the 2009 James M. Vaughan Award for Poetry for his poem “The Whistle.” In March 2013, Shaffer was the keynote speaker at Hawai‘i Pacific University’s 16th Annual Ko‘olau Writing Workshops, and in June 2015, he was a visiting poetry faculty member at the 23rd Annual Jackson Hole Writers Conference in Wyoming. He teaches composition, literature, and creative writing at Honolulu Community College.

Meditative Coloring
2016-10-29 13:00 - 16:00 | Kealakekua Public Library, 81-6300 Mamalahoa Hwy, Kealakekua, HI, 96750, United States
Can you remember the sense of peace and enjoyment you felt while coloring as a child? Can coloring help you relax?
From choosing colors to the gentle, repetitive motion of your hands as you bring color to paper, coloring can be seen as a form of “active meditation”. Oftentimes, when you think of meditation, you think of sitting still for a long period of time. With active meditation, it is just the opposite: repetitive motions such as coloring cna help strengthen your focus and easily shift your attention back to a relaxed state. Stressful thoughts and future worries can be simply pushed aside as you take time to enjoy the present. Join us every Saturday for this mellow, relaxing event.
Program schedule is subject to change. Program is suitable for ages 16 and older. All materials will be supplied. Feel free to bring your favorite pencils, pens, or pastels. To arrange a sign language interpreter or other special accommodation, please call the hosting library as soon as possible: 323-7585.

BAMP Project presents The Psychedelic Furs
2016-10-28 20:00 - 2016-10-29 00:00 | The Republik, 1349 Kapiolani Blvd 3rd Fl, Honolulu, HI, 96814, United States
If you were to dissect the today’s alternative rock music, you’ll find that much of it pays homage to The Psychedelic Furs. Led by vocalist and songwriter Richard Butler, and his bass-wielding brother Tim, the Furs scored major hits with “Love My Way,” “Pretty In Pink,” “Heaven,” “The Ghost In You,” and “Heartbreak Beat” in all releasing seven studio albums, spawning several compilations, a boxed set, and a live concert DVD.
Born out of the post-punk UK rock scene, the Furs quickly developed as one of the premiere bands on US College and Modern Rock radio scoring a multitude of #1 singles. With the advent of MTV in the early 80’s the band took off into the stratosphere, and when John Hughes’ approached the band with his film built around the Furs’ song “Pretty In Pink”, the band’s legacy was cemented.
After a brief hiatus in the 90’s, and a side project called “Love Spit Love”, the band regrouped at the dawn of the new millennium.
The Psychedelic Furs touring lineup remains Richard Butler (vocals), Tim Butler (bass), Rich Good (guitar), Mars Williams (saxophone), Amanda Kramer (keyboards), and Paul Garisto (drums).

Mike Epps will bring his extraordinary comedic talent to Honolulu's Neal S Blaisdell Concert Hall this Halloween weekend on October 28th for what promises to be an unforgettable night of laughs.
Mike returned this summer in season two of the Starz series Survivor's Remorse produced LeBron James and Mike O’Malley. He won a 2016 NAACP Image award for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his portrayal as Uncle Julius. Mike can also currently be seen starring in ABC series Uncle Buck as Uncle Buck, a fun loving but irresponsible guy who needs a job and a place to stay. The show is based on the 1989 film starring John Candy. Mike currently stars in the comedy Meet the Blacks which he also executive produced.
In Fall of 2016, he will start production on The Weinstein Film Pryor starring opposite Oprah Winfrey, Eddie Murphy and Kate Hudson as the legendary comedian Richard Pryor. Written by Bill Condon and Danny Strong, the film will bring to life the comedians ground breaking accomplishments to the stand up stage, TV and films.
He was recently seen in HBO-Emmy Winning bio-pic Bessie based on Bessie Smith, played by Queen Latifah. The film chronicles how Smith overcame her tempestuous personal life to become one of the most acclaimed performing and recording artists of the 1920s and '30s, earning the nickname Empress of the Blues. Mike plays Richard Morgan, a bootlegger and romantic interest to Bessie Smith. The film also won a Critics Choice Award for “best mini-series/movie.”
In 2011, he was awarded an NAACP Image Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in the Sony Pictures film, Jumping the Broom. He continued to receive critical praise for his dramatic turn in 2012 with Sparkle, opposite Whitney Houston and Jordan Sparks. He further pursued his dramatic side with two important roles: starring opposite Forest Whitaker and Anthony Mackie in the Lionsgate thriller, Repentance, being released through Lionsgate/Codeblack Entertainment., followed by the independent Nina Simone biopic, Nina, starring Zoe Saldana. In Nina, he plays the legendary Richard Pryor, who opened for the singer in the early 60's.
Mike also continues to headline his Mike Epps Live shows across the country. In 2009, Mike headlined his hugely successful stand-up special, Mike Epps: Underrated and Never Faded, and in 2011 introduced the world to new comedic talent with, Mike Epps Presents…, both which aired on Showtime. He also released his first comedy rap album called Funny Bidness: Da Album. The album featured Snoop Dogg, Kid Rock, and Slim Thug to name a few. That year also marked the release of his comedy DVD Funny Bidness. With his undying love for hip-hop, Mike hosted the BET Hip-Hop Awards from 2009-2012. He'll continue comedic hosting duties this fall with Shaq's Comedy All-Stars set to air on Showtime.
