Mediation 101 w/ Kendall Beene

Are you curious about the kind of contentment meditation promises but can’t get past the discomfort and boredom that inevitably arise when you attempt to come to the cushion? Have you ever said, “I am not good at meditation because my mind is just too active!”

Join Kendall for this down-to-earth, lighthearted look at the trials and tribulations of learning to meditate. You will learn simple ways to transform the obstacles into opportunities and use meditation to tap into a deeper sense of presence and calm.

Discussion Topics:

• How meditation fits into the classic 8-limbed path of yoga

• The scientifically-proven benefits of a consistent meditation practice

• Common pitfalls and how to navigate them with ease

• Tips and tools to empower you to (re)commit to your meditation practice.

Expect to sit, move a little, spend some time in discussion, and practice several different styles of meditation.

• A pen and journal are suggested, handouts will be provided.

• You may wish to bring a meditation cushion or chair; however, bolsters, blankets, and yoga blocks are available.

• Wear comfortable clothes that allow for gentle movement and to sit comfortably.
