DESCRIPTION:Join us for guided meditations to help you achieve a state of
  well-being\, relaxation\, and strengthen your connection to self.&nbsp\
 ; Whether you find it difficult to attain a meditative state on your own
 \, have trouble finding the time to sit and be\, or simply need some sup
 port and guidance in attaining a peaceful state in which your mind\, bod
 y\, and spirit can relax and refresh...this time is for You!&nbsp\; We h
 ave found that group meditation strengthens and intensifies the meditati
 on experience.&nbsp\;\nMeditation is a holistic discipline by which the 
 practitioner attempts to get beyond the reflexive\, "thinking" mind into
  a deeper state of relaxation or awareness.\nMeditation is a component o
 f many religions\, and has been practiced since antiquity. It is also pr
 acticed outside religious traditions. Different meditative disciplines e
 ncompass a wide range of spiritual and non-spiritual goals\; achieving a
  higher state of consciousness or enlightenment\, developing and increas
 ing compassion and loving kindness\, achieving greater focus\, creativit
 y or self-awareness\, or simply cultivating a more relaxed and peaceful 
 frame of mind.\nThe Purpose of Meditation is to create focus.&nbsp\; It 
 is about focusing your attention on your experience.&nbsp\; The reason f
 or focus: it allows you to be here NOW!&nbsp\; Your only reality is THIS
  MOMENT\, right here\, right NOW!&nbsp\; Peace is found in such awarenes
