Joy Matalon, who specializes in mind-body integration and healing, is joining with Dr. Erica Warren to lead upcoming group events designed to cultivate one’s best self. Each ongoing event will be offered twice each month: Metaphors for Momentum will be offered on October 17 at 5 p.m. or October 28 at 10 a.m.; Come Map Out Your Beautiful Life will be offered on November 7 at 5 p.m. or November 18 at 10 a.m. Groups are limited to 10 participants.

“In an uplifting environment of cradling swings and rocking platforms, participants will learn to access and cultivate their best selves. Then multisensory methods help integrate new intentions,” Matalon says. “Our groups aspire to inspire, guide, and support participants in the process of becoming big, full and complete. They offer facilitated activities, discussions, videos and meditations to support participants in personal growth. Self-explorative journaling, Imago dialogue and conscious communication enables group members to unearth intention, release the ego, feel heard, build empathy and discover community.”

With 30 years’ experience in meditation and bodywork, Matalon is certified in CranioSacral Therapy (CST), SomatoEmotional Release and Process Acupressure. Warren has a doctorate in adult education and a master’s in educational psychology, and 25 years’ experience teaching and facilitating with the aim of helping people of all ages maximize their potential. They co-founded a Putnam Valley-based joint practice, Drop Into Your Best Self. Matalon also offers CST and massage therapy in Ossining and Garrison.
