Weekly meditation group for faculty, staff, and students

Did you know that meditation increases brain function, reduces
the production of stress hormones, increases feelings of well-being,
lowers blood pressure, and slows the aging process?!
Peace@UMBC is a weekly community meditation hour
open to faculty, staff, and students who want to de-stress
and cultivate greater effectiveness and peace in their lives
and relationships, through the development of a meditation
practice. Join us as we sit together and explore our inner
experience. No meditation experience is necessary - all are
welcome!
The first Friday session of each month is open for all but
designated for newcomers to meditation as we will provide
instruction in sitting meditation, conscious breathing, and
ways to set-up a regular meditation practice. The remaining
sessions of each month will be focused on sitting
meditation. We will be exploring a variety of meditation
techniques lead by different facilitators.
No registration is required. Seating is limited and spaces are
provided on a first-come, first-served basis.
All sessions will begin promptly at 1:00 p.m. so we ask that
out of respect for others you please arrive on time.
