| Meditation |
| Wednesday, March 24, 1 pm |
| You have probably heard that mediation can decrease stress, improve your mood, and boost
immune function. Stres also interferes with memory - people who are less stressed usually can remember more. Mindfulness is a type of meditation that esentially involves focusing your mind on the present. You can also practice it at any time - no sitting cross-legged on the floor. Try Mindful Meditation with Fran LaValley in this free seminar. Fran is a Lapham Yoga instructor who will teach you how to breath and focus so that you become more mindful and reap some of the benefits of meditation. If there is interest for further training, we will set up a class. |
