Mindfulness Meditation Event Thursday May-23rd at The Lakes in El Segundo

Please join us for our mindfulness meditation at the Lakes in El Segundo!

7:00 PM to 8:30 PM Meeting at the clubhouse next to the Cafe.

Mindfulness is the simple act of being in the “here and now.”

When we are in the “now” we experience the world as it is—no illusions of the future, and no regrets of the past. Through each inhalation and exhalation of breath we take, we awaken the healing agent to our Body, Mind and Heart.

It also opens you to witness the “oneness” of all human beings. It will, when practiced, remove the barriers that create separateness.

So, by doing mindful meditation practice, you can see those barriers: criticism of others, judgments based on illusions of how things “should” be. It helps you to focus on what is happening around you by relieving stressful situations, worry and low moods. You become Fearless by growing your ability to be present and excepting yourself & others.  

We all harbor tapes in our head, tapes that were imbedded by parents, older siblings,   playmates and teachers of various religions and philosophies as well as our service in the military and  return to civilian life.

So mindful meditation emboldens you to live in the moment. In this way you truly get to know yourself and can act according to your desires for a healthy mental life.
