SUMMARY:Coming Home to the Heart - A Mantra Meditation Practice
DESCRIPTION:Guest Instructor Lea Candon\, will be joining us from France. Please attend and support her debut at the Mindfulness Society of Canada! \nLea writes: \nAfter years of wandering the world\, I realized the real wanderer was my own mind.  The practice of mindfulness showed me that finding a “home” is not about a place. It’s about returning to a presence inside. \nThrough chanting a mantra\, I discovered a stead home base: a place to return to for repose and a way to gently guide the wandering mind back home. In this class\, I will share a simple\, practicial way to connect with a mantra as your inner home base. A practice for a calm concentration\, as you allow all other phenomena and fabrications to unfold naturally.
