Meditation

Meditation can give you a sense of calm, peace, and balance that benefits both your emotional well-being and your overall health. These benefits don’t end when your meditation session ends. Meditation can help carry you more calmly through your day and may help you manage symptoms of certain medical conditions.

Our very own Ali Owens is a certified guided meditation instructor. Her Deep Roots Meditation Group offers space to begin, enrich, or renew your meditation practice. Come sit with us. Fall off the wagon. Get back on. Wherever you’re at on your journey, this group will be here to support and guide you.

Ali has created this free 9-minute guided meditation for you to access anytime.

For more information about meditation, check out one of our many blog posts that describe the benefits, including A Revelation About Meditation.
