Mindfulness Mondays - Calm Connection: Hands, Heart, & Gentle Journey
Join us for a special Mindfulness Monday session designed with care for the Parkinson’s community. In this practice, Crista will guide you through gentle hand mudras, calming breath with sound, and a soothing guided imagery of an evening walk in nature. Together, we’ll explore simple ways to relax the body, steady the mind, and invite a sense of connection and peace.
This session requires no prior experience and can be done from a chair or any comfortable position. Come as you are—all you need is yourself, your breath, and a willingness to receive a moment of ease.
Whether this is your first mindfulness Monday, or you are a returning participant, these sessions are created with the intention of including everyone. There will be time for questions following the practice.
