The Art of Mindfulness at the Concord Free Public Library

Join Lara JK Wilson, MA, MCMS for a session on the "Art of Mindfulness" at the Concord Free Public Library (129 Main Street) on Saturday, September 22, from 2 - 4 p.m.

Mindfulness – the word is everywhere, but what does it mean and how might it help? Mindfulness involves training our attention to inhabit the present moment, a practice that benefits all aspects of well-being. In this session, we’ll examine the development of modern mindfulness, and explore how the practice helps us respond rather than react in order to cultivate healthier habits. Learn simple techniques that can be incorporated into daily life to develop greater awareness and truly relax.

A meditator for over thirty years, Lara’s practices explore how mindfulness and the creative process benefit health. After experiencing the power of mindfulness during eighteen months of cancer treatment, Lara established a non-profit collaborative mindful wellness center in Concord, MA.
