If you are tired of letting circumstances in your life rule you and are serious about embodying peace, this is the program for you. Over the course of this 8-week transformational program you will learn the basics of mindfulness meditation, a powerful healing modality that focuses on being in the present moment. Meditation has proven effective for lowering blood pressure, improving immunity, improving creativity, improving productivity, improving sleep quality and decreasing chronic pain. Over the course of this program you will learn deep breathing for regulation of the central nervous system, Mindfulness Meditation for releasing stress and anxiety, Lovingkindness Meditation for improving outlook and relationships; and practices to make life more peaceful and fulfilling.
