Freedom from Overthinking
Sundays 11am – 12:15pm | April 12 – May 17
Get out of your head and into your heart! Overthinking is a bad habit that gets us nowhere. It stimulates needless activity, anxiety and over-analysis, and often results in decision paralysis.
We can cut this obsession thought by moving our awareness into our heart. In the center of our body is our heart chakra—a place of wisdom, peace and stillness. Through meditation, we can discover how to operate from this place of refuge and create a more balanced, happy, simple life. Everyone is welcome!
