I started the Maharmitta Meditation group at The Center in Tenley-town for the past 2 years to teach "Maharmitta Meditation - deep breathing and meditation" (see www.maharmitta.com). It helps one to relax, reduce stress, increase lung capacity (help asthma sufferers manage their conditions). Since last year, I started to teach "Maharmitta Relaxation - A slow movement and stretching" to the residents at the Mary's House (Assisted Living) in Rockville, Maryland, and to the monks and lay persons at …

This group will focus on practical methods for handling Bad Stress and Good Stress on-the-go and when you have quiet moments. We won't concentrate only on just one approach (i.e. meditation) but try the many methods of de-stressing. Sometimes that will be with guided imagery, meditation, passive muscle relaxation, biofeedback, etc. Other times we will look at how our minds push us towards stress and away from relaxation. Cognitive therapy, The Sedona Method, the Work of Byron Katie and more will …
… Every other week we will meet up to take a relaxing no-stress walk through a park, stop to chat over a topic that we know you are struggling with in your career or health, and stroll back. Throughout you are more than welcome to ask us any questions that we can answer - our goal is to have fun and share knowledge (and have fun, did we mention that last one enough?). See you there!

"Meditation is a mental discipline that enables us to do one thing at a time." (Max Picard) There is no "right way" to meditate. We all are busy people and most of us have 10,000 thoughts running through heads. We forget to take a moment of our time and to focus on ourselves. When we are in this spot we can pull back from it all and allow ourselves to focus on one simple thought by focusing on a sound, an image like the sunset, the feeling of our own breathing. At first I could only keep my fo …

We wish to support those who feel the need to explore an inner life in the midst of everyday life, even learning to use the powerful force …

Besides the networking opportunites for business and work, you will also improve your health and fitness. Hikes will tend to be 4-6 miles during the weekdays before or after work with options for longer hikes for those wishing to do so. It sure beats …
