The holidays can be challenging, especially in light of continued safety measures that may limit travel or large family gatherings. Join us for a special Thanksgiving Day meditation class with WITHIN teacher Desiree Matloob.
After being welcomed to our virtual gathering, you'll be part of a group discussion on how meditation invites more gratitude into your life, and nourishes relationships with present awareness, compassion, and loving-kindness. There will be a guided meditation practice, and time for Q&A.
This class will be held 8:30-9:15am PST / 11:30am-12:15pm EST online via Zoom; the link will be provided to you via email when you register. Registration is $10 (free for WITHIN Members with promo code). Click here to sign up!
Desiree is looking forward to sharing Thanksgiving with you!
