The Penn Museum is placing well-being at the heart of a museum experience, in partnership with Penn Medicine. Offered every first Wednesday, 5:00 to 8:00 pm from November 1, 2023 to March 6, 2024, Mind & Mood Recharge, powered by Penn Medicine, is a new after-hours program designed to reset busy work weeks with restorative mind and body practices such as yoga in the galleries, sound bath meditation, art-making therapy, plus a Botanical Bar serving nutritious refreshments.
A monthly rotation of wellness activities will also be offered, such as:
- All-Levels Yoga Classes inside the Museum’s galleries led by Philadelphia-based instructors Eunmi Chang; teachers from Three Queens Yoga, whose studio practice is grounded in equity, social justice, and community; and Penn Recreation. No experience is necessary.
- Healing Sound Bath Meditation, a deeply relaxing and meditative journey of healing and self-discovery involving Tibetan singing bowls known to stimulate the immune system and changes in brain waves, leading to a deep sense of peace and well-being.
- Immersive Art-Making Therapy led by Shanina Dionna, a certified person-centered expressive arts facilitator, who will guide participants through meditation, breath work, intention setting, dance/movement, mindfulness, empathetic understanding, and unconditional positive regard.
