Meditation at Monona Terrace

Mondays, March 5 - April 9 
11:45AM - 12:30PM, Community Terrace 
FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

If stress has you anxious, tense and worried, consider trying mindfulness meditation. Spending even a few minutes in meditation can reconnect you with a sense of calm and inner peace. Anyone can practice meditation. It's simple, inexpensive, and doesn't require any special equipment. You can bring mindfulness to any of your daily activities… out for a walk, riding the bus, waiting at the doctor's office or even in the middle of a difficult business meeting. Meditation can give you a sense of calm, peace and balance that benefits both your emotional well-being and your overall health. 

With an overwhelming response to last year, we are pleased to again offer this free program for the public.  Led by  Lisa Rambaldo, PsyD, a mind-body practitioner and licensed psychologist with Dean Clinic, you will discover the art and science of meditation and healing.  No session March 19. Chairs will be available. Walk-ins are welcome.  These sessions are provided through the generous support of Dean Clinic and Dr. Rambaldo.
