Participants will explore the northern end of the Cayuga Lake watershed, focusing on the wetlands of Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge and their role as natural filters that help remove pollutants, toxins, and sediments from the water. The program includes close observation of the diverse plants and animals that inhabit this ecosystem, emphasizing its ecological significance. Following guided exploration, participants will engage in a hands-on activity to design and build simple water filtration systems using provided materials, applying concepts of filtration and testing the effectiveness of different approaches.

Hands-on and interactive, involving building demonstration water filters, observation, and group discussion. No prior experience needed.

We are so excited to share that—just in time for Easter—we’ll be launching Saturday services! Twice a month, we’ll gather for worship with those whose work schedules make Sunday mornings difficult.

Our heart is to allow for everyone to worship, grow, and stay connected to the body of Christ—no matter their schedule. We can’t wait to gather together and see what God will do through this new opportunity!

Teaching Ithaca Wellness Launches "The Architecture of the Self": A Summer Somatic Series
ITHACA, NY — Local educator and wellness coach Alison Rawlins, founder of Teaching Ithaca Wellness, LLC, is proud to announce a new 8-part workshop series, "The Architecture of the Self," running Sunday afternoons from July 19 through September 6.
At the heart of this series is the debut of the Concentric Boundaries curriculum—a somatic guide designed to help participants move past intellectualized "rules" and into the felt-sense reality of their personal space. By framing emotional and professional security through architectural metaphors, Rawlins invites the community to rebuild their internal infrastructure with kindness and clarity.
A Somatic Sunday Rhythm Each session takes place from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM at Rawlins’ home studio in Ithaca. The afternoons are structured to facilitate deep transition:
The Welcome Circle: Setting the architectural theme.
The Snack & Shift: A light nourishment break to move from "thinking" to "sensing."
Artistic Exploration: Hands-on creative work to map the internal self.
Closing: Integrating the blueprint before the week begins.
The Summer Schedule:
July 19: Part 1 – The Foundation
July 26: Part 2 – The Threshold
August 2: Part 3 – The Windows (THINK Filter)
August 9: Part 4 – The Observation Deck
August 16: Part 5 – Tapestries & Bivouacs
August 23: Part 6 – Clarity is Kindness
August 30: Part 7 – Conflict as a Gateway
September 6: Part 8 – The Renovation Blueprint
Logistics & Materials Participants are encouraged to bring a dedicated journal and a sketchbook specifically for this course to document their somatic evolution. While the workshops are held in a cozy home environment, Rawlins notes with a wink that her "curious dogs" will be safely contained so the group can focus on the work at hand.
Investment:
Full 8-Week Blueprint: $100 suggested donation (Includes weekly coaching check-ins).
A La Carte: $10–$35 suggested donation per session.
About Teaching Ithaca Wellness, LLC: Teaching Ithaca Wellness provides mindfulness-based art curriculum and therapeutic coaching to the Ithaca community, focusing on empowering individuals through creative expression and boundary work.

This class is a great opportunity to give yourself the space you need for rest and rejuvenation. Allowing yourself to disconnect from the outside world and daily pressures, the intention of this class is to create an environment where people feel safe enough to heal their energy. This free event serves as a gateway for individuals interested in learning how Reiki and Sound Healing works and to see if that’s something that can help benefit them on their healing journey. You can secure your spot in my class on the Vestal Public Library’s website by visiting their online Event Calendar!
