A Fresh Perspective

Thursday Evenings 7:00–8:15pm

Just a few minutes of meditation can make you a more focused, stress-resistant and happier person.

Learn to start each day with calm, positive attitudes, then refresh your experience throughout the day so that each day becomes special, meaningful and spacious.

This training improves your mental well-being because you are taking care of your mind and guiding yourself to happiness. Why not build the meditation habit this year!
