Evelyn Ansel closes the series with “From 1 to 18,006: highlights from the Haffenreffer-Herreshoff digitization project at the MIT Museum”
About this Event
The Spring Lecture Series presents “Leading Ladies: Defining the Discussion of Maritime Science and History”. This series will tell stories of exploration, science, research, historical preservation, adventure and the working waterfront from the perspective of the women who engage and lead in these issues every day.

Join instructors and reiki masters Hilary Richard and Gurdeep Bhogal for an evening of restorative yoga and energy work. We will focus on the root chakra (Muladhara), that is associated with feelings of being grounded, security, support and identity. You will be put into nervous-system relaxing restorative poses while crystal healing and reiki is used to bring out past and present junk that prevents us from feeling our feet on the ground. We will begin with a mudra and mantra to get the intention in motion. Enjoy an R&R retreat to heal deeply into the roots of yourself. This is the first of a series of workshops.

So, what is Offer Fatigue and what are the symptoms you ask?  Well it’s submitting one offer after another on a house or condo, only to have them all rejected.  This occurs over weeks, months and even years.  It comes with low-ball offers, over-list offers, closing cost credits and offers to the seller they can live in their home for months for free as they look for a house. Finally, it comes with the prognosis that no offer…
