Basic Mindfulness: A Simple Body Scan
Join Penny as she helps you deepen your mindfulness practice. In this simple exercise, you'll learn to scan your body in a new way, by slowly progressing from head to toe. Over time, this practice can help you recognize when you're clenching muscle groups (think: shoulders or jaw) and then soften.
This event will be broadcast digitally on the Jefferson's Facebook page and made available on our website.
