Learn to Meditate

Follow the link to this amazing one hour workshop on Meditation with Jon Kabat Zinn. John Kabit Zinn is a Professor of Medicine Emeritus and founding director of the Stress Reduction Clinic and the Center for Mindfulness in Medicine, Health Care, and Society at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He teaches mindfulness meditation as a technique to help people cope with stress, anxiety, pain and illness.

The Heath & Wellness Clinic began this week. The focus of this first of six weeks is to establish a meditation practice. Why do we meditate? It is the basis for good health, good thoughts and connection to spirit. It is a powerful practice that destroys stress in your life, facilitates clear and intentioned thinking and allows access to the universal field of silence where you know your soul.

Try it for a week. Simply set aside 10 minutes each morning to sit in silence with your breath, your thoughts, or a mantra. At EOM, we like to use the "So Hum" mantra. "So" means "I" and "Hum" means "Am". Simply breath in and think "So", breath out and think "Am". Notice your thoughts, let them go and go back to your mantra.

If you need a little push to get you adjusted to sitting for 10 minutes with your eyes closed,
