Meditation – the theory and the practice.

There is overwhelming scientific evidence that a simple daily practice of meditation has a range of health benefits and provides a key to a happier life. In this course we will discuss why this is so, and experience various techniques and practices of meditation, with the goal of finding something that works for you. We will cover:

• Understanding the stress response and the antidotes
• Mindfulness
• Guided meditation
• Having fun with it as we learn together
