Guided imagery is a powerful practice that uses each of the five senses to ignite positive healing messages throughout the mind and body. Through guided meditation, we can become more mindful and present in all areas of our lives, allowing us to approach each moment with clarity and an open heart. This is a 20-minute guided visualization meditation, where the participants are instructed in the art of being “in charge of their minds”. The session will include calming music, guided visualizations, and mindful breathing exercises. You will also be guided through a series of rhythmic stretches and sound meditation to help you reconnect with your mind and body. Join us for this transformative experience and learn how to incorporate these calming mindfulness techniques into your daily routine to promote relaxation, reduce muscle tightness, and improve overall well-being.
