Orono – Breath-Taking at Night – Virtual

Breath-Taking at Night

The #1 reason why so many people feel sick and tired is because of a Sleep/Breathing Dysfunction. This class teaches you how to fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, stop snoring and wake up feeling rested. We all know that you can’t possibly have your highest brain power, do your best performance and function at your highest level when you are chronically fatigued and drained from lack of deep restful sleep. You’d be shocked at how many health disorders are related to, if not caused by, faulty breathing during sleep. While many people feel there’s nothing they can do about snoring or waking frequently at night, they’d be just as surprised to know there’s more you can do about it than you think

Cost: $37

Holocaust History - 4 weeks

This four hour /4 night course will begin with a history of the Holocaust including a brief history of the Jewish Religion, its persecution and the progression of the Nazi Ideology throughout Europe. We will then make the connection with the exploration of different ethical, legal, and moral issues related to the Holocaust. We will also explore modern day genocides in places like Rwanda, Darfur, and Bosnia. Other examples of genocide will also be discussed, for example, the Armenian Genocide in the early 1900s - which the United States just designated as a genocide. To tackle these difficult topics, we will be using first hand accounts from victims and survivors through the use of letters, diary excerpts, and testimony from survivors. There is no text book for this class - but you will receive information from me, the internet, and materials that I handout!

Instructor: Mathy Terrill-US Holocaust Memorial Museum Teaching Fellow

Date: Wednesdays, March - 8th, 15th, 22nd, and the 29th. 6:30-7:30 PM
