Workshop Description:

Join Emily for half-hour mindfulness sessions on four Thursdays in June. These guided meditations will include instructions appropriate for beginner and experienced practitioners. Mindfulness is learning to be with our experience with openness and acceptance. In doing so, we loosen habitual patterns of thought and emotion and are open to natural, uncontrived awareness. Research suggests that mindfulness regulates emotions, improves mental clarity, and nourishes well-being, among other benefits. Mindfulness can be cultivated through formal practices, such as meditation and yoga, or informal everyday activities, like walking and eating. You can attend some sessions or all.
