July 21st Webinar: The Power of Meditation
7 pm EDT / 6 pm CDT / 4 pm PDT

Meditation is an ancient practice that helps to explore the internal landscape of life. In recent years, the practice of meditation has become more mainstream due to the benefits it provides to all aspects of life. These include stress reduction, improvements in anxiety and depression, and many other health benefits. There are so many different types of meditation, each with different benefits. It can be hard to know which meditation technique to utilize and which is most effective. 

This webinar will explore the history, energetic and effectiveness of meditation from both an eastern and western scientific perspective. It will serve as a guide to make choices about the types of meditation techniques to explore as a practice to help reduce stress, improve resiliency, and improve health.
