Introduction to Mindfulness Meditation to Reduce Stress taught by Pat Komarow, Meditator since 1989

One definition of “stress” is wanting something to be different than it is. This is common, but how much do we want it to be different? How often do we resist things as they are? And then struggle over the resistance?

Learn how to manage stress through mindfully changing your approach toward everyday activities, and use the breath to come back to the present. Silent sitting meditation will also be taught.

 Two Mondays, October 11th and 18th

 7:00-8:30 p.m. at Inner Space above Poor Richard’s
