Did you know that meditation may help alleviate stress, improve clarity, and improve sleep?

Meditation also induces the relaxation response, a state that promotes healing and wellness.

Because there is no one size that fits all, three different types of meditation will be presented, and ways to augment their benefits. There will be opportunities for participants to try each method.

*Bonus: Information on a fourth type of meditation, that has been studied and reported to help reduce early cognitive decline when used for twelve minutes a day, will also be presented.

Alternatives to meditation will also be discussed.

Come learn about, experience, and see how it fits for you.
