Mindfulness Meditation Session

Reclaim your attention in a distracted world. Learn to practice mindfulness meditation for calm, clarity, and focus. Mindfulness mediation is a way of training your attention on the present moment by observing thoughts, emotions, and sensations without judgement or criticism. Attendees should expect to first be introduced to the concept of mindfulness meditation, followed by light movement, and then a brief instruction of the embodied practice. The tool used to train the attention will be the breath, and attendees should expect to spend 20 minutes in relative silence focusing on the breath and refocusing on the breath once the mind's attention drifts away eventually. Guidance will be limited during the 20-minute session of sitting in silence. Attendees are highly encouraged to bring yoga blocks, a rolled-up blanket, a large rolled-up towel, or any sit aide that will allow them to sit comfortably for a long stretch of time. Admission is $15 or pay-what-you-can. We will be meeting at Dynamic Force Dance Studio in the Lucuna Lofts in Pilsen. Before the event, please gather outside the South entrance of the building and before the class begins, and I will let you in the door and promptly guide you through the build to the studio.
