Meditation Summer

Katie Down will guide us through a session focused on deep listening, how we listen, listening as an act of compassion, and the effects of listening on our social interactions, self-esteem, and nervous system. 
Followed by the talk will be a 20-minute sound meditation with therapeutic drone instruments.
