We all need it. To slow down, sit down, and let our thoughts meet the page. “Atlas of the Heart: Mapping Meaningful Connection” is Brene Brown’s newest–and an amazing–resource in which she puts words to eighty-seven emotions and human experiences. Each session, in community, we will work through a few in the book by using timed writing prompts based on each. Sharing is optional. If you’re looking for a bit of “spiritual chiropractic” (as Julia Cameron says), here’s your place for alignment. Date | Sunday, April 3 from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Location | Online via Zoom Register here! Members: $10 Nonmembers: $15 Please note: Though purchasing “Atlas of the Heart” is highly recommended, it is not required to participate.

Health care workers have until today to be vaccinated, but many are not. Plus, an independent investigation into the incident at Valhalla High School where a staff member placed his knee on the neck of a Black student has concluded. The school district is moving forward with the recommendations. Also, “The Wrap” device that the Medical Examiner’s Office said contributed to Earl McNeil’s death continues to be used by law enforcement, raising questions about police tactics that officers continue to use across the country. Meanwhile, in the continuing investigation, we look at how some Californians are coping with the smoke created by wildfires, and why the smoke hits some parts of the state harder than others. And, a recent survey found most Americans greatly overestimate how many veterans have PTSD. In addition, a preview of the Gaslight Steampunk Expo as it returns in-person at the Mission Valley Marriott Hotel. Finally, five songs to highlight Latinx musicians as we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month.
