Many people are told by a medical professional, friend, or family member that they “should” meditate. Meditation has many benefits, but how does one actually “do” it? This session will cover basics of meditation including types of meditation, how to get started, and how to support personal practice. Attendees will learn easy-to-remember steps of how to sit in meditation and how to build a meditation routine that works for beginners to experienced meditators. And if you have tried meditation but weren’t sure if you were doing it right, your questions will be answered in this presentation. This is a confidence-building, fun, interactive session and all skill and interest levels are welcome. If you can breathe, you can meditate.
