Final Stretch

It's the final stretch of the semester, and we're feeling the pressure more than ever. Final exams, final projects, final performances, and recitals have us running around like crazy without enough sleep or rest.

It can be easy to get sucked into finals mayhem and forget to take care yourself! The truth is that our mind and body absorbs and retains information much better when it has relaxed and taken time to refocus.  So, if you're on campus, give a gift to yourself, and join us for our final meditation and yoga sessions. You won't regret it. Everything will run better if you're less stressed before an exam than over-stressed.

Meditation is a tool you can learn and use to:

1. Quiet the mind

2. Release the mind of thoughts and distractions

3. Bring clarity to the present moment.

Research has shown that increased concentration, discipline, intelligence, perceptibility, confidence, creativity, calmness and non-reactivity are just some of the paybacks of a consistent meditation practice.
