Mother’s Day Brunch

Spring Trio Concert from WCSU

At the core of our everyday experience with music, we use it to relax, express ourselves, come to terms with our emotions, and generally improve our well-being. It has evolved into a tool for healing and self-expression, often dictating how we, as individuals, take steps to impact society. Join us for a delightful afternoon, while improving your well-being compliments of graduate students from WCSU. Light refreshments will be served. Please sign up on the enclosed form. 

Demystifying Mindfulness and Meditation

Tuesday, May 2 at 10:30 a.m.

Mindfulness is a practice to tap into our deeper awareness to steady ourselves in challenging moments. It’s a proactive, practical, and progressive focus to reframe and reinterpret life and transform the negative into a positive outlook. It helps us take the edge off our suffering and understand the connection between our thoughts and feelings. Prabhar Makayee will introduce us to the different types of meditation and take us through a practice session. Please sign up on the enclosed form.
