2) Come to BYOB ready to discuss your book.  (You do not have to bring the book with you.)

What is Mindfulness?

“Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on the purpose, in the present moment, and nonjudgmentally”, Jon Kabat-Zinn

Benefits of Mindfulness Meditation:

• Promote healthy lifestyles.
• Restore an individual’s sense of balance, clarity, calm and well-being.
• Help individuals caught up in the cycles of addictive habits and behaviors.
• Practicing Mindfulness on a regular basis will help one handle the stresses and challenges of daily living more effectively.

No meditation experience required!

This group will meet on the 1^st and 3^rd Monday of each month, unless otherwise noted.
