Meditation + Mindfulness Classes
Join us for our upcoming classes on mindfulness strategies and guided meditations. In this 3-class series, we’ll discuss creating a practice of your own and talk about strategies you could use day to day.
Sessions will build on each other and include a basic introduction to mindfulness, exploration of staying right where you are as well as compassion. Each class will include a guided practice of strategies taught, and a guided meditation and time for questions and answers.
Participants should wear comfortable clothes, bring a warm beverage and/or water. We will be sitting in chairs and have yoga mats available if we move to the floor.
Dates: Thursdays, December 8, 29, and Jan 5

Energy is all around us, in everything and everyone...it permeates life. We each have the power to heal ourselves, through our words and actions as well as our choices and belief systems.
Moving energy and the power of that has always been a part of my life. Life-changing events led me to look within to find answers to heal. I knew there was potential. This awareness of my own healing process motivated me to know more, learn more, study more and now share.
During this journey, I was drawn to many healing energies and alternative therapies to support my own health and wellbeing... specifically, Acupuncture, Qi Gong, Yoga, Reiki, and Mindfulness + Meditation. I am currently completing of a 2-year teacher certification training in Mindfulness and Meditation taught by Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach. These healing arts, as a regular practice of yoga, meditation and exercise are an important part of my day-today. Additionally, I also make weekly visits to local schools, organizations, and local law enforcement agencies with my therapy og, Luna.
I am an experienced educator (30+ years) with expertise in teaching children with learning and reading challenges. Special Education teacher in Rochester City Schools - 22 years; Reading Specialist in Pittsford Central Schools- 12 years.
