Find spaciousness and stillness through Meditation. Join Linda Shinji Hoffman on the Summer Solstice for an hour of meditative practice. Beginning with an introduction to meditation followed by a guided relaxation, we will move into silence together. We will invite the freshness of new season to enter our body and guide our mind to find refuge within our own true nature — perfect and complete.
Open to Healing Garden clients, caregivers and bereaved members. Free program with optional donation. This program will meet on site at the Healing Garden.
