What:

Join us for a session of guided meditation to start your day and to rejuvenate and restore at mid-day. Learn how military medicine is encouraging the practice of mindfulness to reduce stress, improve emotional balance, increase self-awareness, help with anxiety and depression, and cope more effectively with chronic pain.

Two 30-minute mindfulness sessions will take place on the front lawn of the museum, at 8 a.m. and 12 p.m. You are welcome to bring a yoga mat or towel to sit on.
