Have you been curious about Mindfulness? Explore what Mindfulness is and isn't through an informal lecture, discussion, and practice.

We will talk briefly about mindfulness's history—the roots of the practice and how and why it has become popular in the West. We will explore its benefits and how it can help reduce stress or improve wellness. Attendees will practice some mindfulness techniques, including brief meditation, enabling them to take these skills back into their daily lives.
