Meditation Mondays

📢 Update: This session is now VIRTUAL ONLY!

Join us TODAY for a brief but impactful 20-minute Mindfulness Mental Health Check-In (whereever you are!), designed to help you pause, breathe, and reset in the middle of your busy day. This virtual session will guide you through simple mindfulness practices, including deep breathing and a short body scan, to reduce stress and support mental clarity.

We will also take a few moments to reflect on our current mental state, gently acknowledging thoughts and feelings without judgment. This check-in offers a safe, supportive space to slow down, tune in, and practice self-care so you can return to your day feeling more centered and refreshed.

Who It’s For:
Anyone looking for a quick mental reset. Whether you are new to mindfulness or have experience, all are welcome. No special equipment or preparation is needed. Just come as you are.

🕓 When:
Mondays at 4:00 PM

📍 Where:
Virtual via Google Meet

A Minute for PEACE!!!

Good morning Beloved Friends,

 

As we begin our week together, let us take a Minute for PEACE:

 


"War itself is, of course, a form of madness.  It’s hardly a civilized pursuit.  It’s amazing how we spend so much time inventing devices to kill each other and so little time working on how to achieve peace.” – Walter Cronkite

 

Courage for Justice and Peace,

 

Ron Swain, University Chaplain
