2026-04-18 09:30 - 10:30 (America/New_York) | Chatham County Historical Museum, 9 Hillsboro St, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
As part of Chatham County’s year-long celebration of America’s 250th birthday, the Chatham County Historical Association (CCHA) is hosting an NC History Book Club: Between the Lines, held on the third Saturday of every month in 2026, from 9:30am-10:30am. This monthly book club will explore North Carolina’s rich history through engaging nonfiction. Whether you’re a lifelong history lover or are simply curious about the people and events that shaped our state, join CCHA for conversation and lively discussion.
February’s selection is Soul City: Race, Equality, and the Lost Dream of an American Utopia, by Thomas Healy. It’s a fascinating, little-known, and ultimately heartbreaking story of a 1970s attempt to create a city dedicated to racial equality in the North Carolina countryside. This month’s event takes place Sat, Feb 21, 9:30am-10:30am at the Chatham County Courthouse and Historical Museum.
All are welcome, and admission is free. To register and for more information, click here. This event takes place indoors. The Courthouse and Historical Museum is ADA-accessible. Free parking is available across the street in front of the Chatham County Government Annex. No pets allowed. This event is part of our Chatham Celebrates America 250 initiative.

Monthly Elemental Breathwork with Carrie Brewer
2026-04-18 15:00 - 16:30 | Yoga Garden, 184 East Street, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
Join Yoga Garden PBO for Monthly Elemental Breathwork with Carrie Brewer, hosted on the third Saturday of every month, 3pm-4:30pm. Elemental Rhythm Breathwork is a somatic embodiment journey to support growth and healing. Through deep, intentional breathing, this practice can guide you beyond the conscious mind, restoring balance by activating the parasympathetic nervous system. By accessing this more profound state, you can release old thought patterns, stagnant emotions, and energy that no longer serves you. Where awareness goes, energy flows—this process empowers you to shift your state of consciousness to nurture your own personal growth and healing.
Inspired by the elements, Elemental Rhythm Breathwork incorporates different breathing techniques, followed by a meditation and reflection period to integrate the experiences from the breathwork session. The journey concludes with a sharing circle, offering space for connection and expression. Benefits of breathwork include:

Improved sleep quality.
Reduced stress and anxiety.
A relaxed body and mind.
Enhanced mental clarity.
Pain reduction.
Decreased inflammation.

No experience is required; just come with an open mind. Participants are advised to review potential health contraindications before attending class. The cost is $25 per person. See more events at Yoga Garden PBO.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Breath work results in certain specific physiological changes in the body and can also result in intense and emotional release. If you have had or currently have any of the following conditions, permission to participate in breathwork from your healthcare provider is required:

Epilepsy.
High blood pressure is not controlled by medicine.
Cardiovascular disease.
Heart attack.
Stroke.
Glaucoma/detached retina.
Osteoporosis.
Aneurysm.
Bi-polar.
Schizophrenia.
Any other significant health challenges. If you are pregnant, you can not participate in breathwork. If you have asthma, you must have your inhaler next to you.

POSSIBLE CONTRAINDICATIONS
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): Although many people find great healing through breathwork with regards to PTSD, clearance from your healthcare professional is required before the breathwork activity if you have a severe case or are currently under a therapist’s care. Clearance is also required for any other medical, psychiatric, or physical condition that would impair or affect the ability to engage in activities involving intense physical and/or emotional release. As breathwork can trigger strong emotional releases we want to ensure extra care and support can be provided during and after the experience.
