We hope this season fills all of our hearts with comfort and joy, but we know that this time of year can also bring a number of complex feelings, such as stress, grief, or overwhelm.
With this in mind, we are extending our regular Weekly Pause to a Meditation for Settling the Heart. This will be a space to practice mindfulness in community for a full hour, take a breath in the midst of this frenetic time of year, and acknowledge, without judgment, the many feelings and emotions that can swirl inside of us this season.
