Meditation Workshops & Classes

 

"Psychology Today" reported on studies conducted on the brain waves of people who meditate: "Neuroscientists have found that meditators shift theirbrain activity to different areas of the cortex (brain waves in the "stress-prone" right frontal cortex move to the "calmer" left frontal cortex.) This calmer brainwave activity effects more than just the mind, it can help the body heal too. See what the Mayo Clinic has to say about meditation. Then join us for a class, we'll guide you step by step!

Learn to cultivate a clam, clear and tranquil mind by learning how to meditate as the yogi's have for thousands of years. Some light stretching prepares the body to sit comfortably to then be guieded toward your clam, steady center.
