While your Bucket List travel adventures may be on hold for now, NEXT Village SF invites you to join us for our next virtual trip. This month we are “going” to Easter Island!

We’ll give you a glimpse of Easter Island that will include some history, theories on how the monumental moai stone statues “walked” around the island, the birdman cult, and our stories of what it is like to visit Easter Island.

Virtual Grief Group brought to you by our friends at SF Senior Center – Aquatic Park

Thursdays, May 7 through June 11, from 11am-12pm. San Francisco Senior Center – Aquatic Park, in collaboration with VITAS Hospice, is offering a six week Zoom virtual grief group for those seeking emotional support during these difficult times. As much of our day to day life has been impacted by the pandemic, so has our grief related to the losses in our life. Often when we are grieving, we can feel alone and isolated. When we add to that the social isolation imposed for safety reasons, the aloneness can be overwhelming. If you would like a place to talk about your experience, please plan to join the group which will be facilitated by Dale Poland, Bereavement Service Manager at VITAS Hospice.

Wouldn’t it be nice to use our time Sheltering in Place to make some tiny, easy and even fun changes to develop some new good habits and behaviors!  Start thinking of a goal or habit you’d like to accomplish. Maybe you’d like to get in better shape? Or learn to meditate? Or manage your anxiety?

Ellen Khalifa, a Tiny Habits coach will guide this interactive workshop to help us take control and make positive change in our lives! Tiny Habits® is based on the methodology developed by BJ Fogg, a behavior scientist at Stanford University. This will be a 3-week workshop starting June 12.
