Slightly slow weekend for community events...maybe it's the heat? But it's alright, there are still a few quality events on for this weekend and early next week, that’ll be good for for your mind, spirit, and ‘summer bod.’ Here's what we got: the end of the Jululu Indie Book Fest (pour one out), Lizzy’s Summer Detox Workshop (only cause it’s not super expensive), Beyond the Bund (last shows till October), Ladies Who Tech (nothing more to add here but can’t stop, won’t stop). Read on.

*** Catch the tail end of the Jululu Indie Book Fest running all weekend NOT on Julu Lu, but on Shaanxi Bei Lu at Daliah. Even if you stopped by this week, during the weekend the fair will grow to take over both floors of the restaurant. Saturday-Sunday will also bring the bulk of workshops and panel discussions on DIY publishing. Workshops include: classes on cartooning, calligraphy, and 'Inner Spirit Painting Therapy.' More info here. Running July 22 and 23 at 3-9pm. 25rmb entry. Toxins weighing you down? No fear, Lizzy’s Summer Detox Workshop is here. Not the first, won’t be the last—but this one seems pretty decently priced at 70rmb. It’s a two-parter; start the morning with a yoga class led by Jade of Free Soul Yoga from 11am-12.15pm. The heart-opening practice will focus on detoxifying your liver (something we all need on Sunday) and blood with the right twists. 15 minutes after yoga ends, you'll sip on a free smoothie as you hear from Elizabeth Schieffelin, founder of Lizzy's All Natural, on healthy cleansing; the philosophy, the practice etc. At More Than Eat. Runs 11am-1.30pm. Beyond the Bund is doing some encore shows before hiding away till October. This show will be a little more intimate with two speakers (same show from earlier this month) followed by a Q&A. BTB focused on making this show experiential with aspects of 1960's China recreated at Kaiba. There will be 7 shows from July 24-31, starting at 7pm each night. Pre-sale tickets are 150rmb and 200rmb at the door. Badass group Ladies Who Tech are working to help close the gender gap in STEM industries with their Action Series. Last event was a documentary and discussion, this time around it’ll be speakers followed by a Q&A. On Tuesday, July 25 LWT is partnering with Bayer to bring in women speakers from various backgrounds to share their personal stories and current projects in STEM. Register here
