| An Afternoon of Mindfulness
Patti Essig |
To be mindful is to be really alive, fully aware of our body and mind and our surroundings in the present moment. Sitting meditation (chairs are available) is like returning home to give full attention to and care for ourselves. We let our mind become spacious and our hearts soft and kind. Walking meditation, with each step, we arrive in the here and now, becoming solid and free. Patti Essig has fashioned the mindfulness program on her retreat with Thich Nhat Hanh. Bring a journal, cushion or bench and whatever you need for comfort. Register at Loretto Center. Call Chris: 630-653-7918 |
