9:00 am: Introduction to Mind/Body Meditation at Earle Baum Center (online)9:00 am: Introduction to Mind/Body Meditation at Earle Baum Center (online) – Meditation truly is a way to nurture oneself. It provides a sacred time to pause, destress and realign oneself with one’s true inner dialogue. There is no wrong or right way to meditate and it is very simple! Meditation stimulates the brains parasympathetic nervous system, the “rest and reset” system in our body. In pausing together we can find abundance in our stillness, and relaxation in the permission to let go.
