Meditation for Teens at SOHUM from May 1

A teen’s life encompasses a great deal of growth and change and can be a time of great inspiration, excitement, and freedom, as well as a time of great challenge and anxiety. In this experiential, light-hearted series, you will learn about the many benefits of meditation and how to cultivate your own daily practice. You’ll be guided through meditations designed especially for teens and experience mindful communication techniques that you can easily integrate into your daily life. The benefits of meditation and mindfulness based practices are well documented, and new studies are beginning to show that students who meditate.

"My daughter loves the meditation class.  She says she hasn't felt this relaxed and "zen" in so long.  With all the stresses these kids have esp at this age, it is wonderful that you have created this opportunity for them to find some balance."  ~  Mom of one of the participants at "Meditation for Teens" class at Sohum
