Meditation is a method to make our mind calm and peaceful. When the turbulence of distracting thoughts subsides and our mind becomes still, a deep happiness and contentment naturally arises from within. In this class you will learn how to have a daily meditation practice, tools to overcome difficult states of mind, and methods to calm mental busyness and stress. Everyone is welcome. No experience is necessary.

Classes take place on Tuesdays from 7:00-8:00pm. $15 per class.
