“Change your thoughts, change your brain, one breath at a time.”

They will introduce you to a myriad of life skills from these traditions, which include: breathing techniques; guided meditations; gentle mindful movement; Zentangle®, and mandala making.

Their unique approach will provide students with the tools necessary to begin or enrich a positive daily habit. The results of this daily practice will help you learn how to manage stress and anxiety; increase focus, creativity and productivity as well as develop a positive mental attitude.

This class will provide you with the basic knowledge and understanding of various meditative approaches allowing you to create your own personalized path to a mindful lifestyle and a happier, healthier way of being.
