Is there a trick to meditating? What exactly does it do for you?
A CBS News story about mindfulness training pointed out you can increase your coping ability, reduce your stress level, and grow in your qualities of resiliency. All things a family Caregiver needs to care for another family member. Come learn techniques to de-stress on the run, find a smile in the midst of turmoil, and find solutions to new problems.
Dr. Albert Bellg, psychologist, a founding member of the Compassionate Fox Cities organization, will host two – three week courses in Compassionate Meditation at the Thompson Center.
