Want to experience the benefits of Mindful Meditation?
Mindfulness is a state of being; being present & noticing without judgment. During this meditation group, which starts the week of Sept. 28th, you will learn to anchor your mind to your breath, sounds or sensations so that you can return to those anchors when you notice your mind drifting away into thoughts, sleepiness, or boredom. When you formally practice sitting meditation, you begin to notice a change in your daily life. Mindful meditation is one method that paves the way to having more clarity, calmness, focus, peace, connectedness, and joy. Join Laurie Sommer on Mondays from 12pm-1:30pm or Wednesdays from 6pm-7:30pm at the Circle of Life Center in Thousand Oaks. Call 818-825-1647. I hope to see you there!
