The holidays can be a challenging time, whether you're apart from family or are with them. Let's start Thanksgiving Day with some self-care!
This special 45-minute class will help you create space for any stress or difficult emotions you may be experiencing, and cultivate gratitude no matter what your family situation may be.
After being welcomed to our virtual gathering by WITHIN Meditation teacher Desiree Matloob, 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.
Use this as time for yourself before the day is underway, or invite your friends and family to join you as a part of celebrating the holiday!
This class will be held online via Zoom; the link will be provided to you via email when you register. Registration is $15 ($10 for WITHIN Members - email us for the promo code). Click here to sign up!
Desiree is looking forward to sharing Thanksgiving with you!
