Yoga for Empaths & The Spiritually Minded W/Laura
Yoga for Empaths & the Spiritually Minded – A Self-Care Practice of Gratitude Come as you are. Leave feeling renewed.
Take a moment for you and join us for a heart-centered yoga experience designed especially for empaths, intuitives, and kindred spirits. This gentle, all-levels class is a sacred invitation to slow down, reconnect, and pour love back into your own cup.
Led by the nurturing and soulful Laura, we’ll begin with calming breathwork and gentle movements to ease into our bodies. From there, you’ll explore deeper stretches in the shoulders, hips, and spine, followed by a flowing sequence accessible to all. We’ll end in a restful savasana, allowing your energy to realign and your spirit to soften.
Throughout the practice, we’ll hold the intention of gratitude and self-care—thanking our bodies for all they carry and honoring exactly where we are on our journey. Set to the sounds of traditional yoga melodies, soft drums, and occasional chants, this class offers both healing and harmony for body, mind, and soul.
No experience needed—just an open heart and a desire to care for yourself.
Meet Laura:A longtime practitioner and passionate teacher since 2010, Laura completed her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Midland in 2024. Her classes reflect her deep belief in kindness, inclusion, and making yoga welcoming and accessible for every body.

1950s Summer Movie Series-The Thing from Another World
The Bush Family Home State Historic Site announces a new program coming this summer. Four movies from the 1950s will be shown in the backyard of the home. This year’s theme is monster movies. All guests are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs and snacks. Each event will be from 6:30-9:00 pm.
During the series, the dates, topics and speakers will be:
June 10 – The Thing from Another World (1951)
June 24 – Creature from The Black Lagoon (1954)
July 8 – Curse of Frankenstein (1957)
July 22 – Dracula (1958)
Activites associated with each movie will be available at each movie screening. Those include:
• An activity and craft about flying saucers using paper plates, frisbees, and a boomerang for The Thing from Another World.
• A water activity and fossil craft using air dry clay for the Creature from The Black Lagoon.
• An experiment and a craft for the Curse of Frankenstein.
• A movie poster design activity for Dracula.
Movie going was a major social event, with many people attending theaters regularly. Because tv ownership went up in the 1950s, theaters added to the experience with the introduction of cinerama, 3D, and other widescreen technologies. Even George W. Bush would ride his bike downtown Midland to see cowboy serials and science fiction movies.
“The Summer Movie Series is meant to showcase the entertainment in theaters while the Bush family lived in Midland in the 1950s,” said Site Educator Chase Kirby. “It will be fun for the whole family, young or old.”

Kat Hasty Live
The great Bob Dylan once said, “you don’t just wake up one day and decide you need to write songs.” This quote rings true for the up and comer, Kat Hasty. As a child, before she knew how to put words on paper, she was singing and writing music. Born and raised in west Texas, her upbringing pours through her songwriting in tales of desert highways and the hustle and bustle of oil towns. Laced with heartache, joy, loss and female angst, her songs are ingenious and uniquely her own. The songwriter released her first EP, “Drowning in Dreams” in 2020. Her single,
“Pretty Things” quickly rose in popularity and has taken her and her band all over the country. In her own words, “the show is a little more rock and roll than the stripped down acoustic stuff. We like to have fun.” With a new album set to release in May, this up and comer is sure to take wind this year.
