Join Hildur Palsdottir for an evening of nature-based mindfulness and
 meditation on the first Thursday of every month. Classes will be held 
in the beautiful rooms of the Preserve’s mansions, or in the Hempstead 
House Garden when weather permits.
With these sessions we will explore techniques specifically aimed at 
stress reduction. With kind curiosity Hildur adapts ancient Buddhist 
teachings to modern applications for calming the mind. Meditation 
practice helps us become aware of our thoughts and better manage our 
moods. With transformative practices you will access wisdom and clarity 
to live a more compassionate life. Regular meditation practice can 
improve attention and focus and supports a better outlook on life. In 
addition to facilitating these monthly groups, Hildur will offer support
 with establishing a home meditation practice. No feeling is final. Join
 us in becoming one with the flow of experience.
Chairs will be provided, but guests are welcome to bring a meditation cushion, pillow or mat.
