Meditation 101- A BENEFIT WEBINAR For Oxygen for India and Project Hope w/JILLIAN AND LORRAINE

You've likely heard about the benefits of meditation: increased focus, better sleep, emotional regulation, lower blood pressure...but do you know the reasons WHY meditation brings these benefits? Do you know HOW to get them?

In this interactive webinar, Jillian and Lorraine will explore the many ways to meditate to bring about desired benefits. We will look at meditation types, techniques and strategies for individual and collective success. We will also explore the science behind meditation as well as dispel some of the myths that keep us from developing a regular, beneficial meditation practice.

Bring your questions and your curiosity to tap in to the deep potential of meditation.

Meditation workshop, Saturday 2/27/21

2-3:30pm

In the Buddha's language, the word karuna means compassion -- the ability to respond to suffering with kindness and care. In these exceptionally challenging days when our resilience and wellbeing is constantly tested, the practice of self-compassion is a more critical support system than ever.

Research shows that practicing self-compassion decreases stress, anxiety, and depression, and increases our emotional resilience and wellbeing.

In this workshop, you’ll learn research-backed meditative practices to cultivate self-compassion in your daily life and learn to handle what life throws at you with kindness and strength. (Note: This is a meditation workshop, and no movement will be involved.)
