Mindful Self-Care during the Holiday Season & Beyond

By contributor,

On Wednesday, November 18 at 6:30 PM, Mary Starr Green will introduce a number of simple but powerful stress-busting practices that can be used anytime at the Hopkinton Public Library. These “self-care tools” can be especially helpful during the busy holiday season. The evening will include breathing exercises, gentle stretching (can be done while sitting in a chair) and a variety of guided meditations. Although the practices are based on Kripalu yoga and mindfulness meditation, absolutely no prior experience is necessary! A handout and resource list will be provided.
