A Morning of Relaxation and Meditation for Parents of Young Children

Parents of young children are invited to take some time for yourself during the hectic holiday season and join Family Network alum Ceily Levy for a very special free program.  Savor the deep relaxation of Yoga Nidra, a practice that is sometimes referred to as the sleep of yogis. The body is seated or lying down, completely relaxed while the mind is resting but fully alert and conscious. Learn the simple but profound practice of Metta Meditation (the meditation of Loving-Kindness) where you will be guided to entrain your mind toward concentration, mindfulness and compassion for yourself and all beings.


Ceily Levy has been studying the art, science and philosophy of yoga since 1992. She teaches classes throughout the north shore and is co-director of Touching Earth, a mindfulness learning, meditation and yoga center in Highland Park (www.thedeepcalm.com).
