Description

Doors at 6:35 - we start at 6:45 sharp! Anyone who is looking to learn more about mindfulness, develop (or deepen) a meditation practice, find relief from stress/anxiety, or just to meet like-minded people and make new friends, is welcome. We'll start off with a brief discussion about the intersection between breath, body, and mind. After dissecting meditative theory, we will then move into a practice period of application in silence and stillness. This looks a lot like just sitting together and breathing. The aim of each session is to balance the energies of the intellectual center (head) with that of the emotional center (heart), to create more orderliness and coherence in the nervous system. You can bring water if you’d like. We have plenty of mats, blankets, and other equipment to sit comfortably although you also are welcome to bring and use your own. Use the east-facing entrance (adjacent to the parking lot, not 11-mile) Contributions are welcome to help cover the cost of renting the studio!
