Meditation

Awareness of the present moment can bring great benefits, and it seems so easy!  In as little as five minutes a day, one can reap the rewards of increased feelings of calm and decreased anxiety and improved sleep and stress management.  It can be as simple as sitting quietly and paying attention to one's breath; though it is an internal experience, it can be helpful to pick or prepare a calm, restful place where one will not be disturbed.  However, it can be difficult to find the focus, and so some external support can be helpful, especially when getting started.

On Wednesday, December 16, Cancer Support Community of Greater St. Louis offers a meditative experience that includes wonderful sounds.
