Meditation w/ Parson

Join us for a beginner’s mindfulness meditation session led by Parson of the Awareness Center where participants will learn basic breath work, how meditation works and the benefits of a common practice. After a little discussion, participants are guided through a meditation session of about 20-30 minutes. Afterwards, journaling is encouraged to process the experience with optional sharing allowed among the group. No pressure though! Bring your favorite yoga mat, blanket, and/or comfort items to make the experience truly your own!

*Please note: A small number of yoga mats and pillows will be available for use in the office. We encourage you to bring your own if able to ensure enough will be available for all participants. Please bring your own journal, or one can be provided to you upon arrival. We look forward to seeing you! Namaste.
