Livingston County Health Center is excited to announce an upcoming series of Meditation Classes led by Kasey Peyton. Classes will be held every Wednesday for six weeks, beginning on Wednesday, January 10th at 12:15 p.m. in the Health Center classroom, located at 800 Adam Drive.
A regular meditation practice can reduce
stress, improve focus, stabilize emotions, promote physical health, and
increase compassion towards others and ourselves.
This six-week course will introduce
students to a different type of meditation each week with instruction on proper
posture and breathing. The first class
is an introduction to meditation itself.
Information and helpful tips will
be shared to encourage students to develop a home meditation practice of their
own.
Those that attended the first Meditation
Series held last fall are welcome to attend this series as well. There will be some of the same meditation
styles, as well as a few new ones. Class
starts a little later at 12:15 to allow those coming from work a little more
time to get to the health center for class.
Classes run for 30-45 minutes, although students can leave when they need to.
Kasey Peyton is a certified yoga and
meditation instructor and a 200 hour Registered Yoga Teacher through Yoga
Alliance. In a culture and age of
fast-paced, outward focus, Kasey enjoys bringing people back to themselves
through the inner work of yoga and meditation.
She is rewarded by the serene look of transformation on her students’
faces at the end of every class.
The Health Center requested Kasey to teach
meditation to educate county residents about alternative methods of preventive
self-care.
