Reducing Anxiety Through Meditation @ Central
Life in today’s world is stressful. People are anxious about their health, their finances, their relationships, their safety, and their work. Doctors and medical practitioners are promoting the benefits of meditation to relieve stress and anxiety. By sitting in meditation, we can calm the body and the mind. We can slow our brain waves to states of relaxation. When we are in a state of physical and mental calmness, we have more control over our reactions towards life’s stressors. Through meditation we can cope with the stresses of life. Meditation helps us replace anxiety with joy and peace. Join Dr. Alan Post, long time meditator and contributing author of Meditation as Medication for the Soul by Rajinder Singh for this informative lecture. There will even be a short meditation sitting
